this purpose. The device can be used for 8 hours at least with a fully charged car battery in normal
operation conditions.
CAUTION
• Do not use any battery power cable other than the optional battery cable specific to the
GoodKnight 420G. There is a risk of damaging the device and your battery.
• Only use 12-Volt DC sources and make the proper polarity connections (+ and -).
To install the battery cable, substitute the following steps for steps 4 and 5 of the standard installation
procedure:
1. Connect the battery power cable onto the supply connector at the back of the device. (See
reference 6 in Figure 4, page 5).
2. Connect the other end of the cable directly onto the battery.
NOTE
Before using the battery, always be sure it is fully charged.
