Please use the following cleaning procedure for routine maintenance:
1) Turn the power key to OFF position.
2) Remove power by disconnecting the battery.
3) Discharge the capacitors in the controller by connecting a load (such as a contactor coil or a horn) across
the controller’s B+ and B- terminals.
4) Remove any dirt or corrosion from the connector areas. The controller should be wiped clean with moist
rag. Dry it before reconnecting the battery. The controller should not be subjected to pressured water flow
from either a standard hose or a power washer.

months; after the power key turns off, the wave-filter capacitor in the controller unit shall keep discharging for a
few minutes more; don’t wash the electrical parts with water. It is allowed to remove dust with a brush or
high–pressure air.
