Cell2 SW830 User manual

INSTALLATION
It is essential to install the unit properly to ensure safe and reliable operation. Please read through all instructions thoroughly and
carefully before installing the unit. The correct mounting and wiring is the key to the effectiveness of SW830 switch. Installers must
read and follow installation instructions and warnings in the manual from original manufacturer. The vehicle operator should verify
this system is fastened to the vehicle securely and is functioning properly. Failure to follow all safety precautions and instructions
may void warranties, cause personal injury and/or vehicle damage, including fire.
MOUNTING
Mount the power module in a location that is not exposed directly to weather elements such as the driver compartment firewall,
below the seat, or in the trunk; and away from any air bag deployment areas. Ensure that all wiring harness connections are made
prior to connecting the harness to the power module.
Assemble the included panel stand and secure it onto a desired smooth surface via suction cup, where it can be easily accessed by
the vehicle operator. If no smooth surface is present, use the included adhesive base to assist the mounting; ensure that the
surface is cleaned thoroughly before applying the adhesive base onto the mounting surface. Once the mounting stand is fitted,
secure the control panel tightly onto the stand.
WARNING: Do not interfere with the proper operation of the vehicle airbag deployment system.
Note: Avoid mounting the switch unit with wiring harness exiting downward. This may cause harness connection to fall off during
harsh or sudden impact.

WIRING
Use wires that are capable of handling the required current. Route the wires properly to prevent wear, overheating and interference
with air bag deployment. Ensure that all connections are tight and double check wiring before connecting to the vehicle battery.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Electrical connections to the unit are made by using block plugs and screw terminals. Route all wiring to the power module and
secure onto block plug terminals, then plug onto the power module. The plug can be easily removed without unwiring when the unit
requires servicing. The power supply for the fused unit (12-P plug) must be capable of delivering peak currents up to12A for
adequate short circuit protection and proper operation. It is recommended to wire directly to the vehicle battery.
WARNING: ensure that all wires are firmly secured onto the block plug, and plug is firmly secured onto the power module.
CONTROL PANEL / FUNCTION
To turn on the control panel, apply positive voltage to the IGN (Ignition) terminal at the rear of the power module.
