4.6 Electrical Connection to the Battery
WARNING
All work should be carried out by qualified technicians
in accordance with technical regulations.
Improper connections or the use of wrong gauge wires
could result in fire.
All wires must be properly insulated and have
adequate voltage rating. All connections must be tight.
The use of uninsulated wires and contacts is not
permitted.
Use the wire harness (included) to connect the unit.
The circuit connecting the battery must contain a fuse.
Check the polarity (see illustration) before connecting
the unit.
Both sensor and power lines must always be
connected.
Always use separate lines for charging (power) and
for voltage metering (sensor) to the battery.
Otherwise, the flow of current will cause false
readings.
