CRUISING ELECTRONICS 756-2 Quick start guide

This clock is designed for operation from a 12 volt DC source only (10.6 to 16v)
Current dra is approximately 50mA (.05 Amps)
Allo able ambient temperature range -20 to + 50° C
The clock has a battery for time memory. To replace, remove the 4 scre s on the rear and carefully separate the case
halves. The battery ill be seen in the rear half. Slide the battery from its holder (it can only be removed from one
side of the holder), and replace ith a CR1220 Lithium Cell. Observe Polarity when fitting: + side must be up
T o po er cables are supplied. Only one can be used at any time.
One end of either supplied lead plugs into the bottom socket marked DC on the rear of the clock.
One lead is designed for cigar socket use, the other for those installations here it is desired to permanently ire the
clock into the 12v electrical system of a vehicle, vessel etc.
Observe the correct polarity if using the permanent wired lead: WHITE is to Positive +
The ire is of light gauge. Ensure it is properly connected, ell supported and provided ith proper strain relief.
The cigar plug requires the vehicle socket to have Positive + at the tip connection. All negative chassis vehicles are
ired this ay, but a vessel may not be. If in doubt check ith a voltmeter. Warranty is void if incorrectly ired.
As usual best practise, please ensure all + iring is fused as near as possible to the voltage source and run in a
orkmanlike manner. All connections must be secure, lo resistance and protected. Use a fuse rating of 1/2 an Amp
The temperature lead/sensor plugs into the top socket on the rear, marked ith a thermometer symbol. It is not
necessary for the correct operation of the clock: if it is absent the temperature display ill sho a line of dashes.
The mounting pedestal s ivels vertically, hilst the foot can rotate, or be removed. The foot has sticky tape already
attached, but for a more robust mounting it may be advantageous to drill 2 holes through the foot for scre fittings.
