• When the trailer hitch is used on a boat ramp or
in a place where the connectors are submerged
in the water, disconnect the trailer 7-pin
connector and 4-pin connector from the sockets
and close the socket lid and socket cover
securely before operation.
Failure to disconnect the connectors making the
connectors submerged in the water as a result
will cause adverse effect to the vehicle electric
system.
• Water will enter the connectors if they are
submerged in the water. Open the socket lid and
cover to drain the connectors.
Special Precautions
• Electric current flows through the positive (+)
charging circuit only when the ignition switch is in
the ON (II) position.
Using the positive charging circuit when the
engine is at a stop or during idling can discharge
the battery.
