INSTALLATION – MOUNTING
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable (Earth) from the vehicle’s starting battery.
Note: To prevent the loss of vehicle electronic memories, radio presets & security codes, it is
recommended that an “Electrical System Memory Protector” be used.
2. Mount the auxiliary battery cradle and fit the auxiliary battery.
3. Mount the electronic isolator in a convenient location as near to the main battery as possible and
no further than 3m. Keep the isolator as far as possible from the exhaust manifold, turbo or any
other high temperature components. Do not mount on the engine.
‘L’ bracket mounting – The ‘L’ bracket is fitted to the rear of the isolator. Once attached to the
isolator the bracket can be fastened to the vehicle using screws/bolts or slipped under the battery
for battery side mounting.
Surface mounting – Using the supplied template (page 11), select a location which offers a flat
plastic or thin metal surface to mount, mark and drill 2 x 2mm (5/64 ”) holes and mount the isolator
with the screws provided.
