SAFETY AND GENERAL INFORMATION
A properly installed Vehicular Charger/Holder Kit minimizes
service calls. When mounting the components of the
Vehicular Charger/Holder Kit, consider the following factors:
•
The mounting surface must have sufficient strength to
support the item being mounted to prevent it from
becoming loose over time.
•
Do not attach components to any part of the vehicle that
is subject to excessive vibration.
•
The proposed location of the item being mounted or
wires/cables attached must not interfere with driver/
passenger seating or leg space.
•
Use the supplied mounting hardware.
•
Ensure that the cables are not stretched, and not subject
to heat from the engine, transmission housing or heating
ducts.
•
Crimp connectors securely.
•
Do not run cables over sharp edges that may cause
excessive wear or chaffing of the cable insulation.
•
Do not install components in locations where they may
cause interference to the operation of the vehicle's
controls.
Check the required mounting locations. Modern cars are
equipped with power supply connections for mobile phone
inside the passengers cabin. It is preferable to connect the
power cable to these connections.
On some vehicles, it is necessary to penetrate the bulkhead
to reach the battery. Ensure that there is cable clearance on
the opposite side of the bulkhead and that vehicle's Electronic
Control Modules (ECM's) are not installed on the opposite
side of the bulkhead before drilling commences. Protect the
cable where it passes through the bulkhead by using a
grommet or similar protective measures.
