3. The cable is rated for a maximum temperature of 221°F
(105°C). The cable should be protected from surfaces that
exceed this temperature, from physical damage from mov-
ing parts, and from chemicals or oil that cause the insula-
tion to deteriorate.
4. Avoid sharp bends. The power cable is less flexible in low
temperature environments.
5. Route the cable the shortest way possible removing any
leftover cable, making sure the cable does not interfere with
safe operation and maintenance of the vehicle.
6. Secure the cable to the vehicle structure at approximately
one foot intervals, taking care not to over tighten, pinch con-
ductors, or penetrate the insulation.
7. Use proper electrical and mechanical fastening means for
terminating the cable. Properly sized “crimp” type electrical
terminals are an accepted method of termination. Select
electrical connectors sized for use with 20AWG (0.81mm2)
conductors.
8. Connect the watertight connector end of the power cable to
the Thor VM1 Quick Mount Smart Dock power connector by
aligning the connector pins to the power connector; push
down on the watertight connector and twist it to fasten
securely.
9. Secure the power cable to the Thor VM1 using strain relief
cable clamps, and place the Thor VM1 in the dock.
10. If using the Screen Blanking feature, install the screen
blanking box or switch. (Refer to the installation instructions
that came with the Screen Blanking box, or to the Thor VM1

ther information about the Screen Blanking box.)
