Important Safety Information
Failure to follow these warnings, cautions, and notices could

product performance.
See the Important Safety and Product Information guide in the

damage caused by fire or overheating, the appropriate fuse
must be in place as indicated in the product specifications. In
addition, connecting the power cable without the appropriate
fuse in place voids the product warranty.
To avoid possible personal injury, always wear safety goggles,
ear protection, and a dust mask when drilling, cutting, or
sanding.

vessel, disconnect the vessel's power supply before beginning
to install the device.

vessel, before applying power to the device, make sure that it
has been properly grounded, following the instructions in the

Mounting the HVAC Minder Device
NOTICE

through only the top gel-coat layer. This will help to avoid cracking in the gel-coat layer when the screws are tightened.
Before you mount the device, you must select a mounting location, and determine what screws and other mounting hardware are
needed for the surface.
1 Place the HVAC Minder device in the mounting location, and mark the location of the pilot holes.
2 Drill a pilot hole for one mounting hole of the device.
3 Loosely fasten the device to the mounting surface with one screw, and examine the other pilot-hole marks.
4 Mark new pilot-hole locations if necessary, and remove the device from the mounting surface.
5 Drill the remaining pilot holes.
6 Secure the device to the mounting location.
