NOTE: • Like your vehicle's speedometer, G-Analyzer is no more than a measuring function. The HP or G value measured by this unit may not be completely accurate due to its simplified method of measurement. The G-Analyzer is only for reference and should not be used to confirm the horsepower specifications of your vehicle. (DPX701 only) • Mounting and wiring this product requires skills and experience. For safety's sake, leave the mounting and wiring work to professionals. 2CAUTION To prevent damage to the machine, take the following precautions: • Make sure to ground the unit to a negative 12V DC power supply. • Do not install the unit in a spot exposed to direct sunlight or excessive heat or humidity. Also avoid places with too much dust or the possibility of water splashing. • When replacing a fuse, only use a new fuse with the prescribed rating.
