Do not perform installation of this product immediately after the engine has been switched off. The engine and exhaust system are extremely hot at this time and can cause burns if touched.

Use a solderless connector or similar device for wiring connections and make sure connections are insulated. In areas where there could be tension or sudden impacts on the wiring, safeguard the wiring with corrugated tubing or other shock absorbent material. Accidental shorts can cause fires.
