Installation/Wiring Precautions

1.To prevent a short-circuit, be sure to turn off the ignition and remove the negative (-) battery cable prior to installation. Connect power wires last.

2.Do not install the unit in the locations exposed to direct sunlight or, in areas subject to extreme temperatures.

3.Incorrect installation may cause damage to the system. Mount the unit firmly in place, using the supplied hardware.

4.Be careful not to damage the vehicle wiring.

5.Be sure to use the supplied screws and washers.

6.Be careful not to snag any wires when tightening screws.

7.Use only the 12 Volt-to-6 Volt DC Power Adapter supplied. Use of an alternative power adapter may damage the XR9 unit and/or the XC9 cradle.

CAUTION: You could drain the vehicle battery if the cigarette lighter adapter remains plugged in after the ignition is turned off. Unplug the adapter to prevent this possibility.
