A
NOTICE!
To prevent short circuits, always disconnect the negative terminal of the
electrical system before working on the vehicle.
If the vehicle has an additional battery, its negative terminal should also be dis-
connected.
A
NOTICE!
Inadequate supply cable connections could result in short circuits with the
consequence that:
z
cable fires occur
z
the airbag is triggered
z
electronic control devices are damaged
z
electric functions fail (indicators, brake light, horn, ignition, lights)
A
NOTICE!
Ensure that all lines are connected correctly. The control line may never be con-
nected to earth; doing so can damage the device. Make especially sure to insu-
late the bare end of the control line when it is not in use and thus not connected.
Please observe the following instructions:
z
When working on the following supply lines, only use insulated cable lugs, plugs and
tab sleeves.
– 30 (direct supply from positive battery terminal)
– 15 (connected positive terminal, behind the battery)
– 31 (return cable from the battery, earth)
– 58 (reversing light)
Do
not
use terminal strips.
z
Use a crimping tool to connect the cables.
For permanent connections, you can solder the cable ends together and then insu-
late them.
z
When connecting to supply cable 31 (earth), screw the cable
– to the vehicle's earth bolt with a cable lug and a gear disc or
– to the sheet-metal bodywork with a cable lug and a self-tapping screw.
Ensure that there is a good earth connection.
