Unpacking and Inspection
The DCX battery disconnect system is shipped in a box that includes protective inserts for the main DCX housing as well
as the mounting bracket component set and related hardware.
Inspect the outer box immediately after receipt as well as the contents to confirm that there is no shipping damage. Most
shipping carriers require notification within 24 hours of delivery of any shipping damage in order to cover the cost of the
damage via repair or replacement. It is the responsibility of the recipient to inspect the shipment immediately upon receipt.
Remove the DCX unit and related brackets and hardware and confirm that the components are present. Refer to the
mounting kit instruction sheet that comes with the shipment and is specific to the mounting kit option that was ordered to
confirm that all parts are present for installation.
The plastic flip-up front panel and the plastic housing of the DCX unit are not designed as structural components so be
careful to lay the unit on it’s side or back temporarily until it is mounted to the mounting bracket set to avoid damage.
Arrange the mounting bracket kit including hardware for preparation for installation at the install location.
