Checking Terminals

To check that the battery cables are firmly connected, you will need to
remove the terminal caps.

To remove the terminal cap:

1. Using a flathead screwdriver as shown in Figure 3-1, place the blade

in the lip of the cap and push it gently against the cap until it lifts off.

2. To replace the cap, place it over the terminal and push down until it

snaps into place.

WARNING

The metal base of the IP1012 AL may be hot when operating in high
ambient temperatures. Do not touch the metal enclosure until the unit has
cooled down.
