Notes On The Electrical Connection - Conrad GKA100 Bedienungsanleitung

8.4 Notes on the Electrical Connection

• The maximum load resilience in the relays must not be exceeded. If required, they must be
protected from overload with additional external fuses.
• The external cables must be kept as short as possible and remaining line lengths must not
be coiled.
• Too-strong temperature fluctuations may lead to temporary impairment and require manual
reset in extreme cases.
• The product is not intended for the „Safety" area and therefore does not correspond to any
SIL/ASIL level.
The electrical connection must be made by a specialist.
To avoid short circuits and resulting damage to the device, the negative pole (GND/
earth) must be disconnected during connection.
Only connect the negative pole of the vehicle battery when you have completely
connected the device and checked the connections.
Observe the notes of the vehicle manufacturer so that the stored data of the vehicle
are not lost (e.g. radio code).
You should only use a voltmeter or a diode test lamp for checking the voltage on
the on-board cables as normal test lamps consume excessive currents and can
thus damage the electronic system of the car.
When laying the cables, make sure that they are not squeezed or scoured on sharp
edges. Use rubber grommets for the feed-though points.
When placing the sensor lines in the trunk, use rubber sleeves or something similar
to avoid impairing tightness of the vehicle interior.
When placing the lines in door pillars, etc., ensure that you do not impair any safety-
relevant devices (e.g. side airbags). The lines must not be placed in the airbag
trigger area.
