For example, if you have to extend the power cable to the battery or power buss, attach one end of the fuse holder directly to the battery or power buss. This will protect both the unit and the power cable in the event of a short. It uses a 3-amp fuse.

To unit

Black wire

Optional power off switch for saltwater installations

Red wire with 3 amp fuse

12volt battery

Power connections for the IntelliMap 500C GPS unit.

WARNING:

This product must be independently fused with the en- closed 3-amp fuse (or equivalent), even if you connect to a fused accessory or power buss.

If a malfunction happens inside the unit, extensive dam- age can occur if the enclosed fuse is not used. As with all electrical devices, this unit could be damaged to a point that it is not repairable and could even cause harm to the user when not properly fused.

CAUTION:

Failure to use the enclosed 3-amp fuse will void your warranty! For a replacement, use a type 3AG 3-amp fuse.

This unit has reverse polarity protection. No damage will occur if the power wires are reversed. However, the unit will not work until the wires are attached correctly.

An optional 8-foot, CA-4 external power cable with a cigarette lighter adapter is available from Eagle.
