NOTE:

Connecting the negative battery cable to the Intelligent Battery Sensor (IBS) must be done before installing on the battery post.

  1. Place the IBS onto the negative battery post and push the IBS (3) down until properly seated on the cone of the post.
  2. Fasten Ground terminal to M8 (max 15 Nm +/-2 Nm).
    NOTE:

    M8 has much higher torque than the M6 clamp and can break IBS free if the M6 is tightened prior.

  4. Install amp 2 pin connector (Power & LIN) making sure there is no stress on the wires.
