2.0 Installation
※ Please set to the power-off before installation.
2.1 Cigar-lighter Socket Connection
1. When connecting the product using the cigar lighter socket Input cable.
2.2 Fuse-Box Connection
1. When connecting the product using the Fuse-box ACC Input cable.
2.3 Fuse Box
1) With the product’s power switch in the OFF position, connect:
- The hardwiring cable to the INPUT connector of Cellink battery and the other end to the fuse box.
- The output cable from the OUTPUT connector of Cellink battery to the products' cable connector.
2) Open your vehicle’s fuse box, check the fuse type, and select the correct fuse tap to match.
The fuse box location in the vehicle may vary depending on the manufacturer and model of your vehicle. For more information, refer to your vehicle’s manual.
Inside the fuse box, there's two types of power available, permanent power (BATT) and ACC contact. Since our Cellink battery is charged only when the ACC is on, you must connect only to ACC contact. If you connect to BATT contact
with permanent power, the car battery will be drained or cause some error on the dashboard.
2.4 Fuse Connection
1) Insert the input cable into the sleeve at the end of the fuse holder cable, and then secure it by squeezing on the sleeve securely using appropriate tools, such as pliers.
2) Preferably, look for spare ACC contact fuse socket in the fuse box and insert the fuse tap with the included 20A fuse.
3) If you cannot find any spare ACC contact fuse socket, you can look for any existing fuse rated 10A or less with ACC contact. After removing the fuse from the socket, insert it to the fuse tap and plug the fuse tap cable back to the socket.
2.5 Fuse Tap
Insure that the fuse tap is plugged with the correct orientation with INPUT pin to the power source of the socket inside the fuse box.
Fuse supplied with the Cellink NEO is rated 20A, please do not change with other ratings.
2.6 Ground Connection
1) Find a bolt fixed on the vehicle’s and connect the ground (GND) cable to the bolt.
If the vehicle’s bolt is coated, remove the coating before connecting the ground (GND) cable. The power may not be supplied correctly due to the coating.
2.7 Proper Connection
1) Make sure that the product is connected properly.
2) Fix the product using the provided Velcro tape on the car floor such as under the car seat.
