Connect this pigtail to the car battery directly with the supplied DC cable.
P Connect the red lead to the positive side (+) of the battery and connect the
black lead to the negative side (-) of the battery. The DC cable is as short as
possible, because transmitting requires a high DC electrical current flow.
P Performance may be significantly reduced when connecting the DC cable
to the cigarette lighter plug or fuse box.
P Install a line filter if your vehicle has objectionable alternator noises.
