WARNING:
 DO NOT OPEN, DISASSEMBLE OR ALTER THE UNIT IN ANY WAY. Doing so may result in fire, electric shock or product
damage.
 USE THE CORRECT AMPERE RATING WHEN REPLACING FUSE. Failure to do so may result in fire, electric shock or
product damage.
 DO NOT INSTALL IN LOCATIONS THAT MIGHT HINDER VEHICLE OPERATION. Doing so may obstruct vision or
hamper movement which can result in a serious accident.
 INSTALL THE WIRING SO THAT IT IS NOT CRIMPED OR PINCHED BY SCREWS OR SHARP METAL EDGES. Route
the cables away from moving parts or sharp pointed edges. This will prevent crimping and damage to the wiring. If the
wiring must pass through a metal hole, be sure to use a rubber grommet to prevent the wire's insulation from being cut by
the metal edge of the hole. It is also recommended to apply sealing caulk to any opening that may potentially allow water
to enter.
 Be sure to choose a location that is flat and has clearance above the unit to prevent any damage, as well as allow for
ventilation.
 Before drilling any holes, carefully inspect the area underneath and behind the mounting surface where the device will be
mounted to make sure it will not interfere with existing wires, fuel lines, the fuel tank or any other objects that could be
damaged.
 Always disconnect the vehicle negative battery terminal during installation to prevent accidental shorting.
