Connecting the Unit
Connecting the Power Terminal
•Always use the recommended battery and ground wire, which is sold separately. Connect the battery wire directly to the car battery positive terminal
(+) and the ground wire to the car body.
•Recommended wires size (AWG: American Wire Gauge) is as follows. The battery wire, the ground wire and the optional direct ground wire must be same size.
•Use a 10 AWG to 20 AWG wire for the system remote control wire.
Battery Wire and Ground Wire Size
Wire Length | less than 2.1 m | less than 3.6 m | less than 5.2 m | less than 6.4 m |
Wire Size | 4 AWG | 2 AWG | 1 AWG | 0 AWG |
