WARNING
• The Talon draws a small amount of residual current from the battery even when not in use. If the Talon is not be used for more
than 5 days, or while the battery/batteries are being charged, the Talon power leads should be disconnected from the battery. It
is recommended the Talon be connected to the Starting Battery through a battery selector or power disconnect switch. This will
disconnect power to the Talon when the Power Switch is "off". If you are not using a battery selector/switch, the Talon may be
connected directly to the starting battery.
• Keep lead wire connections tight and solid to the battery or switch terminals.
• The Starting Battery should be located in a ventilated compartment to avoid sparks from combustible materials.
