 Precautions 

        

■

   

Airwolf is designed to operate in a      12V system. 

        

■

   

Always use a multimeter for checking wires. Test lights can trigger

               

airbags and damage circuits. 

        

■

   

Check polarity of all circuits before making connections. 

        

■

   

Always connect the ground wire (CON 1, black)  before applying power 

               

to the unit.

        

■

   

The tach wire and the siren wire should never be grounded, 

               

or come in contact with chassis ground in any way.

 
        

■

   

Always use fuses when using external relays.
