Connection:
1. UnscrewandremovethebatteryclipsfromtheDCleadsusinga4mmallenkey.
Note:Thesebatterychargersincludesensorwiresthatrunparalleltoboththe
positiveandthenegativeDCleads.Thisallowsforaccuratevoltagemeasurements
tobetakendirectlyfromthebattery.ItisstronglyrecommendednottocuttheDC
leadsduringinstallation.HoweveriftheDCleadsarecut,ensurethatthesensor
wiresareincludedinbothpositiveandnegativeconnections.
2. ConnectacircuitbreakerorinlinefusetotheREDPositive(+)lead(includesensor

3. Connectashortcabletotheotherendofthecircuitbreakerorinlinefuse&connect
tothePositive(+)batterypost.
4. ConnectthecablelugfittedtotheBLACKleadtotheNegative(-)batterypost
(includesensorwireifDCleadhasbeencut).
5. Fitthecorrectlyratedfuse(inlinefuseapplicationsonly).
IfthechargerisusedinaPermanent/HardWiredapplicationandthevehiclewillnotbe
usedforsometime,itisbesttoleavethechargerconnectedtomainspower(turned‘On’)
so that it can maintain the battery fully charged.
