DEFA MiniPlug and extension cable
DEFA MiniPlug with holder
Depending on the installation point, the holder can be mounted on both sides. The contact can be adjusted and
turned in order to achieve the desired position. The contact is normally installed with the lid hinge at the top.
However, it can also be installed with the lid hinge to the side. The contact may NOT be installed with the lid
hinge at the bottom.
Drainage
Regardless of whether DEFA MiniPlug is installed flush or with a holder, the contact should always be installed
to the lid at a downward angle so that water (condensation) can drain. If the contact is installed at an upward
angle, the lowest of three dampers MUST be opened for drainage (1). Draining - Do not press the plastic piece
into the contact. Use a knife.
Earthing
The earth connection (black, single-phase cable with toothed ring terminal) MUST be connected to a suitable
earthing point on a bare metal part of the vehicle’s bodywork. Paint, primer and the like MUST be removed from
the connection point for the earthing cable. Only original DEFA connection cables may be used with the original
DEFA device terminal. The connection may only be made with an earthed plug.
DEFA PlugIn and extension cables
The PlugIn system makes it easy to connect the main components of DEFA WarmUp and extension cables. The
plug connectors are designed so that they cannot be plugged-in incorrectly, and to ensure a safe and secure con-
nection. When making connections, the contacts must be pressed together firmly enough to ensure that the O-ring
will sufficiently seal the plug contact. Make sure that the O-ring does not slip out of the groove when the contacts
are pressed together. The extension cables must be fastened to suitable points in the engine compartment of the
vehicle with ample spacing between them and moving parts such as belt pulleys, fans, etc. Make sure that the
extension cables are not routed too close to hot parts, such as exhaust manifolds, turbo chargers and the like.
Cable connections may not be subjected to stress from twisting or bending.
MultiCharger 1203 - Battery charger
Switch off the mains supply before disconnecting the DC voltage connection. Use the enclosed 5A fuse on the RED
cable to positive battery terminal and the BLACK cable to the negative battery terminal. To interrupt the charging
process, the mains supply (230V) is disconnected (i.e. negative terminal first, then the positive terminal). Do not
shorten or extend the cables (12V), as this cause incorrect charging voltages. The charger must be correctly
installed in order for water to drain. The direction is indicated on the label on the charger and/or on the top side
of the charger. The temperature of the battery may not 40°C while charging. Fasten the charger using
cable ties or the enclosed bracket and screws.
The charger must be correctly installed, connectors pointing downwards, in order for water to drain.
