GENERAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

PRODUCT USAGE: The Battery Isolator allows maintenance-free and deep cycle batteries to be properly charged and also offers dual battery control.

1.IMPORTANT: If you are installing the Isolator on a Toyota (Alternator Group 2) or a Motorola/Bosch (Aternator Group 3) refer to the special instructions in this manual before disconnecting any part of the existing system.

2.For optimum system performance, use a battery labeled “Deep Cycle” in the auxiliary position.

3.Multi-Battery Isolators are designed for alternator systems with negative ground and batteries of the same nominal voltage. Batteries of differing voltages cannot be used.

4.Refer to the “Recommended Wire Size/Circuit Breaker” Chart below to determine the proper wire size and circuit breaker (not included) for your installation.
