mental brakes has an active braking system — re-
fer to the owner’s manual or call the dealership.
ROADMASTER expressly disallows any and all
claims relating to tire damage, brake damage or
any other damage to vehicles with ‘active’ braking
systems caused by: 1) installation of any ROAD-
MASTER supplemental braking system other than
InvisiBrake or BrakeMaster; or 2) failure to install
a Brake Pressure Reducer with the BrakeMaster.
If the towed vehicle has a keyless ignition system
(a.k.a. ‘push button start’) AND a Brake-Lite Relay
has been installed, the motorhome parking lights
must be turned on when towing. This will supply
current to the Brake-Lite Relay. If the parking lights
are not turned on, the Brake-Lite Relay will not
function, which will prevent the towed vehicle’s
brake lights from operating properly.
The Even Brake 12-volt power cord is always
“last in, first out.” Never plug in the power cord
until Even Brake is completely installed, according
to the instructions in this manual.
Once it receives power, any movement of the box
could cause Even Brake to activate unexpectedly.
Similarly, never disconnect Even Brake without
first unplugging the 12-volt power cord.
Failure to install and operate Even Brake as in-
structed may cause property damage, personal
injury or even death.

Read all instructions before installing or operat-
ing your Even Brake. Failure to understand how to
install or operate Even Brake could result in prop-
erty damage, personal injury or even death.
CAUTION
Not for use on older vehicles without power
brakes. Even Brake is designed to work with ve-
hicles that have a power brake system (even though
the power brakes are not activated while towing).
Using Even Brake on vehicles that do not have
power brakes will result in over-braking and severe
non-warranty brake damage.
CAUTION
Do not install Even Brake in a vehicle with an
‘active’ braking system.
‘Active’ (or, ‘continuous power assist’) braking
systems are a safety feature on some new vehi-
cles. This feature allows the brakes to always have
power, even with the ignition off. There are two
supplemental braking systems that ROADMASTER
manufactures for these vehicles: InvisiBrake (rec-
ommended) and BrakeMaster, with the addition of
a Brake Pressure Reducer (part number 900002).
If any ROADMASTER supplemental braking sys-
tem other than an InvisiBrake or a BrakeMaster with
a Brake Pressure Reducer is installed, the vehicle
will brake with excessive force, which will dam-
age the tires. Other non-warranty damage may also
occur.
It is the owner’s responsibility (or if profession-
ally installed, the installer’s responsibility) to de-
termine if the vehicle being equipped with supple-
