Installation in wet area (engine compartment, wheel arch)

Apply sealing compound on both sides and press into contacts (1).

Fit shrink-fit hose and heat up with hot air blower (2) (approx. 250 °C).

NOTE: Ensure that fan connector has sufficient contact surface on mounting point.

Do not heat shrink-fit hose on edges of fan connector too strongly, risk of cracking.

Allow shrink-fit hose to cool down until hand-warm. Then press sealing material again into contacts and onto edges of fan connector.

If necessary, carefully heat shrink-fit hose again.
