Drawing 3 gives an example of the simplified installation of a taximeter
controlling only an external light “FREE” or ”TAXI”. It also shows the possibility in
the case of a radio-taxi company to use the light connector L6 to inform the
central of the state of the taximeter.
Drawing 4 and 5 gives two examples of installation with a connection box and
armoured cables, which prevent to access to the installation without destroying
the seals of this connection box.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE INSTALLATION OF A TAXIMETER IN A CAR:
Disconnect the positive terminal on the battery until the whole electrical
installation is completed.
Any manipulation of the taximeter or of the external lights must be done with the
taximeter desconnected from the feeding.
Always take the positive and negative of the battery direct in order to avoid false
contacts and to obtain a more filtered feed.
Always connect the cables to the battery by means of a terminal, never by
winding the wires on to the contact.
If the cables cross a plate to reach the taximeter they should go through a
protective rubber casing.
If the cables are too long they should be cut to the required length and not rolled
up under any circumstances.
Please verify that the sparking plug cables are made out of graphite, so that no
interference affect the equipment.
If the vehicle has a radio endeavor to separate its installation from that of the
taximeter as far as this is possible.
Always inspect the earth connection of the aerial and the connectors.
If it is possible no element that is connected to the taximeter should be fixed to
the same support as the aerial of the radio.
