INSTALLATION GUIDELINES AND IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS This product is intended to be installed as part of a permanently grounded electrical system as shown in the system confi guration sections of this manual with the following important restrictions: • The negative battery conductor should be bonded to the grounding system at only one point in the system. If a GFP (Ground Fault Protector) is present, the battery negative and ground are not bonded. • With the excep

WARNING - WORKING IN THE VICINITY OF A LEAD ACID BATTERY IS DANGEROUS. BATTERIES GENERATE EXPLOSIVE GASES DURING NORMAL OPERATION. Design the battery enclosure to prevent accumulation and concentration of hydrogen gas in “pockets” at the top of the enclosure. Vent the battery compartment from the highest point to the outside. A sloped lid can also be used to direct the fl ow of hydrogen to the vent opening. CAUTION - To reduce risk of injury, charge only deep-cycle lead acid, lead antimony

NOTES • An optional battery Remote Temperature Sensor (RTS) is recommended for accurate battery recharging (only one RTS is needed for multiple OutBack Series Inverter/Chargers and MX60 units when an OutBack HUB and a MATE are parts of the system). When one RTS is used, it must be connected to the component plugged into the Port 1 of the HUB. • AUX modes include powering a relay, LED indicator, and Piezo-buzzer or brushless fan. • The OutBack MATE can display a single MX60 or multiple MX60
