Connecting the System
Note:
• This unit is for vehicles with a 12-volt battery and
negative grounding. Before installing it in a recre-
ational vehicle, truck, or bus, check the battery
voltage.
• To avoid short circuit in the electrical system, be
sure to disconnect the ≠ battery cable before
beginning installation.
• Refer to the owner’s manual for details on con-
necting other units, then make connections cor-
rectly.
• Secure the wiring with cable clamps or adhesive
tape. To protect the wiring, wrap adhesive tape
around them where they lie against metal parts.
• Route and secure all wiring so it cannot touch any
moving parts, such as the gear shift, handbrake
and seat rails. Do not route wiring in places that
get hot, such as near the heater outlet. If the insu-
lation of the wiring melts or gets torn, there is a
danger of the wiring short-circuiting to the vehi-
cle body.
• Don’t pass the yellow lead through a hole into the
engine compartment to connect to the battery.
This will damage the lead insulation and cause a
very dangerous short circuit.
• Never feed power to other equipment by cutting
the insulation of the power supply lead of the unit
and tapping into the lead. The current capacity of
the lead will be exceeded, causing overheating.
• When replacing a fuse, be sure to use only fuses
of the rating prescribed on the fuse holder.
• If this unit is installed in a vehicle that does not
have an ACC (accessory) position on the ignition
switch, the red lead of the unit should be connect-
ed to a terminal coupled with ignition switch
ON/OFF operations. If this is not done, the vehi-
cle battery may be drained when you are away
from the vehicle for several hours.
