Important!
This unit is a safety device and it must be
connected to its own separate, fused power point to assure its
continued operation should any other electrical accessory fail.
Caution:
When drilling into any vehicle surface, make sure
the area is free from any electrical wires, fuel lines, vehicle
upholstery, etc. that could be damaged
Note:
Operating the Minibar without the lens installed on
this product will result in damage that will not be covered
under warranty.
WARNING!
Maximum recommended vehicle speed for safe
operation using the Vacuum Mount model is 65 mph
(104 km/h), when fitted to the centre of a vehicle roof
of steel construction. Higher speeds could cause
the mount to fail, resulting in the minibar flying off
of the vehicle, which could cause damage to other
vehicles, and injury or death to the passengers.

The Vacuum-Magnet Mount feature includes suction cups on
the bottom of the minibar, with a magnet inside of the suction
cup, for a secure, temporary mount. The minibar should be
placed in the center of the roof where the least amount of
curvature occurs. Before installing, make sure the mounting
surface is clean and there is no debris on the bottom of the
minibar or on the roof of the vehicle, which could reduce the
holding power of the suction cup and magnet. Place and
remove the minibar without sliding to avoid scratching the
paint on the vehicle. After placement, the minibar should
adhere firmly to the surface. If the unit slides or moves easily,
a proper installation has not been obtained. To release the
vacuum, lift the tab to release the airlock (see Figure 1). To
protect the Vacuum-Magnet Mount assembly, return minibar
to the box when not in use.
Do not attempt to attach the
minibar to an ice-covered surface.
