This manual provides instructions to assemble, connect and set the computers of the BRAVO 300S family.
Any other information is provided in specic sheets to be used exclusively by the installer, containing specic information of each computer model.
The section of this manual dedicated to the installation contains information for installers. For this reason we have used technical terms without
providing explanations which would be necessary for end users only.

PERSONNEL.
The descriptions of the assembly phases refer to a “general” computer, so specic models will not be mentioned, unless a certain installation procedure
concerns exclusively one computer type.
The installer must carry out workmanlike installations and ensure to the end user the perfect operation of the whole system both with ARAG components
only and other brands' components.
ARAG always recommends using its components to install control systems.
The installer will be held responsible for any malfunction if he decides to use other brands' components even without actually changing the system
parts or harness.
The compatibility check with components and accessories of other manufacturers shall be carried out by the installer.
If the computer or the ARAG components installed together with other brands' components get damaged because of what stated above, no direct or
indirect warranty will be provided.
