The bracket can be mounted both ways depending on the
mounting location. The plug can be adjusted and turned to
the required position. Normally the plug is fitted with the
cover hinge pointing upwards, but may also be fitted with
the hinge to one side. The plug must not be fitted with the
cover hinge pointing downwards.
Drainage.
Regardless of whether the DEFA Mini Plug is mounted
recessed or on the bracket, the plug should be fitted so
that it leans downwards towards the cover allowing wa-
ter and condensation to be drained away. If the plug is
fitted leaning upwards, the lower of the three weakened
points(1) on the plug
MUST
be removed for drainage.
It is best done with a knife or similar tool. (Do not
push
the plastic piece into the plug).
Earth connection.
The earth connection (black single-core cable with ring-
shaped cable shoe)
MUST
be connected to a good earth
point on the metal part of the car body. Paint, underse-
al etc.
MUST
be removed from the contact point of the
earth connection. A toothed washer must be used both
under the screw head and between the cable shoe and the
car body.
DEFA Plug-In connectors and interconnection leads.
It is important when connecting the leads to press the contacts together sufficiently hard
for the O-ring on the male contact to seal properly. Make sure the O-ring is not pushed
out of the groove when pressing the contacts together. Fasten the extension leads with
plastic strips in suitable spots in the engine compartment, well away from sharp, hot or
moving parts.
Battery charger.
Connect the battery charger in accordance with the wiring diagram on the cover. Con-
nection to the battery must always be made with the enclosed fuse. Use the fastening hole
at the bottom of the charger and mount the charger with a body screw or plastic
strips.Route the cables straight away from the contacts (1)
on the battery charger so that the Plug-In contacts are not
bent or twisted (2). Make sure the battery charger is not
placed too close to hot parts such as exhaust
The cable for the control unit is connected to the contact
under the small cover. The cover is opened as shown in the
picture. The plug is fitted so that the red cable is located
as shown in the picture (1). The thick part of the cable must
be inside the edge (2) of the cover so that the tension when
closed keeps the cable in place.
