Routing the Wire Harness Calibrating the Sensor 1. Route the wire harness under the seat pan and along the along the existing wire harness in the cross channel (Figure 8). 2. Route the wire harness to the controls. 3. Install the middle connector to the machine wire harness connector labled TELEMATICS port or EXPANSION port (Figure 8). 4. Connect the wire harness to the light and the alarm (Figure 8). 1. While on a flat surface, remove the plug from the calibration connectors (Figure 9).
Note: The LED light at the top of the display screen (Figure 10) blinks as the sensor calibrates. ii. When the InfoCenter shows advisory 196, Slope Sensor Calibrated, the light no longer blinks, and the alarm beeps once, turn the ignition key to the OFF position. g315597 Figure 12 1.

Operation • No light—normal operating conditions Use the following procedures depending what your machine has installed. • Fast, flashing red light and audible alarm—steep • Slow, flashing red light—moderate slope slope; proceed to a more shallow slope. WARNING Slopes are a major factor related to loss-of-control and tip-over accidents, which can result in severe injury or death. Use extreme caution when operating the machine on a slope.
