If possible, keep the power cable away from other boat wiring,
especially the engine's wires. This will provide the best isolation from
electrical noise. If the cable is not long enough, splice #18 gauge wire
onto it. The power cable has two wires, red and black. Red is the
positive lead, black is negative or ground. Make sure to attach the in-
line fuse holder to the red lead as close to the power source as possible.
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.

WARNING:
This product must be independently fused with the
enclosed 3-amp fuse (or equivalent), even if you connect
to a fused accessory or power buss.
If a malfunction happens inside the unit, extensive
damage 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 unrepairable and could even cause harm
to the user when not properly fused.
CAUTION:
Do not use this product without a 3-amp fuse wired into the power
cable! Failure to use a 3-amp fuse will void your warranty.
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.
