4. If the sensor retainer slides out with the sensor, pull the sensor out of
the bottom of the sensor retainer.
If the sensor retainer slides out without the sensor, pull the sensor out of
the SC-01.
5. Insert the connector (plug) end of the sensor into the sensor end of the
extender cable and gently push it in until it bottoms out with the sensor
plug on the end of the sensor contacting the sensor socket at the
bottom of the cable’s sensor opening. Do not try to push the sensor
any farther into the extender cable sensor opening once it bottoms
out.
6. With the sensor plug gently touching the sensor socket, turn the sensor
clockwise or counterclockwise while pushing the sensor very lightly until
you feel it drop into place as the sensor plug aligns with the sensor
socket and partially engages it. With the sensor plug and sensor socket
partially engaged, the sensor will no longer rotate freely.
CAUTION: Do not force the sensor into the sensor socket. Forcing a
sensor into the sensor socket may damage the sensor or the
socket.
7. With the sensor plug and sensor socket partially engaged, push the
sensor into the extender cable so that the sensor plug fully engages the
sensor socket. This will push the sensor in about 1/16” farther than the
partially engaged position.
8. Align the tab on the sensor retainer that is aligned with the yellow line
on the sensor retainer’s rubber guard with the notch in the extender
cable’s sensor opening that is lined up with the UNLOCK yellow line
and slide the sensor retainer over the sensor pushing it into the sensor
opening over the sensor.
9. Make sure the tab on the sensor retainer below the yellow line engages
the mating notch in the extender cable’s sensor opening, then push the
sensor retainer as far as it will go and turn it 1/8 turn clockwise until it
locks in place.
10. On the plug end of the extender cable, slide the captive cable retainer
as far away as possible from the end of the cable. The cable retainer
must stay in this position until Step 14 below.
11. Insert the plug end of the extender cable into the sensor opening in the
SC-01 case and gently push it in until it bottoms out with the plug on the
end of the extender cable contacting the sensor socket at the bottom of
the sensor opening. Do not try to push the extender cable any
farther into the sensor opening once it bottoms out.
