HINTS FOR CORRECT AND SAFE OPERATION  

This unit is designed to be operated only   
+12 volt DC negative ground systems.   
The unit cannot be used on +24 volt or   
positive ground systems.   

The unit may not operate correctly in   
extremely hot or cold temperatures.   
The unit is equipped with a built in 
self-protection circuit.  When the 
temperature reaches a presser level, the 
protection circuit halts all unit operation.   

If this should happen, open a window and   
allow the car to cool.

ensure proper installation.    The use of

If for any reason, the fuse is blown, only 
replace with an automotive blade fuse of

Avoid installing the unit where it would be 
subject to high temperature, such as from 
direct sunlight, or from hot air, from the 
heater, or where it would be subject to 
dust, dirt or excessive vibration.
