(1)
For uses of more than 30 seconds.
(2)
Depending on the position and therefore the temperature that may be reached in the housing, choose fuses that can be loaded
to up to 70%- 80% of their maximum capacity.
▶
The fuse must be connected as close as possible to the current take-off point.
Precautions
●
Incorrect installation of electrical accessories may affect occupant safety and cause severe damage to the vehicle.
Contact IVECO if you have any questions.
●
Avoid coupling with signal transmission cables (e.g. ABS), for which a preferential path has been defined for electromagnetic
requirements (EMI).
It should be noted that when grouping several cables together, in order to compensate for lower heat dispersal capacity, the
current intensity must be reduced with respect to the nominal value of a single cable.
●
In vehicles with frequent engine start-ups, with limited current drawn and engine rotations (e.g.vehicles with refrigeration
chambers), provide for periodic battery charging to maintain efficiency.
●
Plug and terminal connections must be protected, resistant to weathering, and executed using components of the same type
as those utilised originally on the vehicle.
●
In the event that a component has to be installed just next to the route of a cable belonging to the original system, make sure
that its remains integral and avoid any cuts.
▶
Any damage caused by failure to comply with procedure is not covered by warranty.
Modifying wheelbase and overhang
Should it be necessary to lengthen the wires on the chassis owing to the new dimensions of wheelbase and overhang, a watertight
junction box must be used which has the same characteristics as those used on the standard vehicle. The electrical components
used such as wires, connectors, terminal blocks, conduits etc. must be of the same type as those used originally and must be cor-
rectly fitted.
Side Marker Lamp installation
EC regulations require that vehicles are provided with side and clearance lights when the total length exceeds 6 m.
The installation of the lateral lights must be performed on the additional structure (containers, vans, etc.), while the electric power
supply must be obtained by the specific connector 61069 on the chassis (see Fig. 5.39).
Note It is not possible to draw current from side marker lights.
