It must not be situated directly above the battery or in a cabinet with it.
No easily inflammable material should be placed directly underneath or close to the Xtender.
Ventilation apertures must always remain clear and be at least 15cm from any obstacle that may
affect the ventilation of the equipment according to fig. 2b.
In mobile applications it is important to select an installation site that ensures as low a vibration level
as possible.

ASTENING
The Xtender is a heavy unit and must be mounted to a wall designed to bear such a
load. A simple wooden panel is insufficient.
The Xtender must be installed vertically with sufficient space around it to guarantee adequate
ventilation of the device (see figs. 2a and 2b).
3.5.1 Fastening XTH model
Firstly fix the mounting bracket (18)) supplied with the device using 2 Ø < 6-8 mm >screws**.
Then hang the Xtender on the bracket. Fasten the unit permanently using 2 Ø <6-8 mm> screws**
on to the two notches located at the underside of the case.
3.5.2 Fastening XTM model
Screw on a solid wall (concrete or metallic wall) an M8 screw without washer up to a distance of
1.6 mm of the wall.
Hang the apparatus by having care to release beforehand the trap door of access (17) by
inserting it inside the apparatus using a screwdriver, if you estimate that a complete tightening of
this point of fixing is necessary. In theory complete tightening is necessary only in the mobile
installations.
Dismount the lower plastic cap of the apparatus giving access to the compartment of wiring.
Carefully fix the apparatus with two screws (Ø 6-8 mm) in the two clamp holes (16) inside the
compartment of wiring.
If the Xtender is installed in a closed cabinet this must have sufficient ventilation to guarantee an
ambient temperature that conforms to the operation of the Xtender.
**: These items are not delivered with the device.
It is imperative to ensure complete and safe fastening of the device. A device that is
simply hung may detach and cause severe damage.
In motor vehicles or when the support may be subject to strong vibrations, the Xtender must be
mounted on anti-vibration supports.

ONNECTIONS
3.6.1 General recommendations
The Xtender falls within protection class I (has a PE connection terminal). It is vital that a protective
earth is connected to the AC IN and/or AC OUT PE terminals. An additional protective earth is
located between the two fastening screws at the bottom of the unit (fig. 2b-(17)).
