the negative (–) charger/controller lead wire (black) to
the negative (–) terminal (black) on the battery. If you are
using two batteries, use the set of optional terminals and
connect the second battery. Use lead wires (not included)
to connect the positive (+) charger/controller terminal
to the positive (+) battery terminal and the negative (–)
charger/controller terminal to the negative (–) battery
terminal.
2. The backup pump leads are polarity sensitive; connect the
positive pump lead to the terminal labeled Pump '+' and the
negative pump lead to the terminal labeled Pump '–'.
Note: If the leads are reversed, the pump will run
backward and not pump water.
