It is advisable to connect the bottle explosive capsule and tightly screw the retention ring before installing the
bottle in the vehicle in case the room around the bottle does not allow easy access to the connector when
installed.
WARNING
If the bottle is connected with the Control Unit switch in the ON position, the system might go on. Always make
sure that the bottle connector is tightly screwed before setting the Control Unit Lever Switch to On.
With the switch still in the OFF position, press one of the two buttons and check that the LED turns on, thus
indicating that the system is connected correctly.
N.B.: the LED verifies the functionality of the system and turns on ONLY when the extinguisher valve is
connected to the system. If the LED does not turn on after having connected the system, check the connections
and/or try replacing the battery.
If you have checked the connections and installed a new 9V battery and the LED still does not turn on, contact
your local dealer.
If the LED turns and correctly with the lever in the OFF position, your system is ready to be put into operation
by moving the switch to the ON position.
WARNING
It is recommended that you replace the electrical control unit 9V battery before every race.
