WARNING!!!
Before making or breaking any electrical connections, please make sure
to read the following instructions on how to properly charge and discharge the
capacitor. Not following the charge / discharge instructions can lead to permanent
damage to the capacitor, which is not covered under the manufacturer warranty.
Charging
After mounting the capacitor in its final position, attach the ground to the
capacitor and the chassis grounding location. Next hold the supplied bulb between
the (+) positive battery lead and the (+) positive terminal of the capacitor. If using a
bulb, it should light up for a short time (normally 15-30 seconds or so) and then go
out. After waiting for the capacitor to charge, remove the bulb or resistor and
immediately attach the power (+) cable to the capacitor. The best way to ensure the
cap is charged best is to keep the bulb attached until you touch the main power (+)
wire to the capacitor, then remove it.
