If the output (white) 10mm² cable needs to be extended beyond 4 meters, it should be replaced
at the battery charger by 10mm² cable and can be extended up to 9 meters.
•
Beyond 9 meters, it should be replaced at the battery charger by 16mm² cable (up to a maximum
total length of 10 meters).
The 1mm² ignition positive (+) (brown) cable can be extended beyond 5 meters by the same 1mm²
cable, as this cable draws very little load.
