SAFETY PROCEDURES  

 

This unit is a microprocessor based Cruise Control. It is designed for ease of installation and can be used with most cars, light 
trucks and vans. Carefully follow the installation procedures in this manual for best results.  
 
DO NOT INSTALL THIS SYSTEM ON A DIESEL POWERED VEHICLE WHICH HAS A MANUAL TRANSMISSION WITHOUT A 
DISENGAGEMENT SWITCH (Kit# 250-4206) ON THE CLUTCH PEDAL ASSEMBLY.  

 

Throughout the instructions there are WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND NOTES that are meant to make it easier for you to install the 
Cruise Control on your vehicle and make it safer to use. We have gathered these tips from people across the country who have 
informed us of their problems and solutions. Even with all these reports from the field, we cannot cover every condition which you 
might encounter; there are just too many different vehicle makes and models. We do our best to tell you how to handle most 
vehicles, but we must Depend on Your Good Judgment for dealing with the rest. Therefore, we believe you can understand why we 
strongly urge you to think carefully about what could happen to you, your passengers, and your vehicle if you use any tools, parts, 
fastening methods, routing or procedures which are not described in this manual.  
There is NO drain on the battery if the control switch is left on. The Cruise Control needs no regular service.  
 
WARNING  
Failure to follow the instruction manual could not only cause the system to work improperly, but could cause the throttle to hang up, 
possibly causing damage to your vehicle and injury and/or death to you and your passengers.  
If you question the applications of the Cruise Control, please consult the applicable application guide. Only install on approved 
applications. The product described in this manual was developed, manufactured and tested in line with recognized technical 
standards and is in compliance with the fundamental safety requirements. Nevertheless, there are residual risks! It is therefore 
important to read this manual before installing and connecting the product. Keep the manual in a place that is readily accessible at 
all times.  
 
Throttle Adaptor  
In order to cover certain vehicles with a universal cruise control, we have designed throttle adaptors for performance and safety. 
Consult current Application Guides and Vehicle Technical Information Guides to see if your vehicle needs a Throttle Adaptor before 
you install the Cruise Control. If an adaptor is listed, it must be used with that application.  
 
Target Group and Qualified Installation 
This description is intended for those persons who install the product in the motor vehicle. In order to be able to operate properly, 
the Cruise Control must be correctly installed. The system may therefore be installed and wired by persons who know and have 
understood the installation instructions of this manual and are familiar with automotive electrical and mechanical systems. 
Installation by nonqualified personnel can lead to injury to the driver or third parties, or damage to property or the environment.  
 
Modifications to the product  
The Cruise Control is designed, manufactured and tested with due regard to safety and reliability. Modifying or tampering with the 
product can affect its safety. This can lead to death, serious or slight injury to the driver or third parties, or damage to property or the 
environment. For this reason, the product must not be modified or tampered with!  

 

Inform the user  
Hand the Operating Manual for the cruise to the user. The Operation Manual is an integral part of the product! If the cruise has not 
been fitted with a clutch switch, Please inform the user that the engine speed briefly increases when the function is switched off via 
the clutch. 
 
WARNING  
The information in this manual has been carefully compiled through actual vehicle testing and 
manufacturers service manual research and to the best of our ability is accurate. However, we 
do not warrant the accuracy of this information against changes in vehicle design, the use or 
misuse of this information or typographical errors. It is the responsibility of the installer to verify 
the signal and color on the wire attachments prior to and after the installation of the Cruise 
Control to assure proper operation. We do not accept any responsibility for damage to the 
vehicle or injury to its occupants caused by the use of this information. Improper installation 
and/or connection to the incorrect wires could cause Cruise Control or vehicle malfunction, 
component damage, and or personal injury for you and/or your passengers.
