WARNING

6.2 12 VDC

The following apply to the 12 VDC connections for the Oasis™
Heating Module:

• There is one paired set of 12 VDC electrical connections on the

top right of the Oasis™ Heating Module. They consist of the
primary DC positive (red) and negative (black) connection and
are 14 gauge stranded copper wires.

Primary DC power should originate from a dedicated connection on

the house battery bank. A 20 amp fuse or breaker must be
included close to and inline from the battery to the positive (red)

connection on the Oasis™ Heating Module. The primary power wire
gauge must be sized to permit no more than a 3% voltage drop
from the battery to the Oasis™ Heating Module.

• A properly-shielded power system is required for safe, trouble-

free operation.
