the leads. Prevent them from geng caught in the vehicle chassis, or
from being damaged by screws or moving parts, such as seat rails. Do not
scratch, pull, bend or twist the leads. Do not run them near heat sources or
place heavy objects on them. If leads must be routed around sharp metal
edges, protect the leads by winding them with vinyl tape or similar protec-
on.
