  3. The internal battery is switched off for transit and storage and will need to be switched on before installation:
    1. Open the device rear cover by unscrewing the four screws using a screwdriver

    2. With the device laid flat, move the small black switch from the OFF (right) to ON (left) position
  4. Close the rear cover by screwing the four screws in place using a screwdriver. Ensure the cover is sealed firmly. 
  5. The power extension cable will need to be attached to the device:
    1. Untighten the cap of the tracker.
    2. Plug the extension cable to make it a solid attachment. 
    3. Tighten the cap on the extension cable until it can’t be turned anymore.

NOTE: With a big capacity internal battery, the device can be used without the extension cable. Please make sure the cap on the device is tightened firmly to protect the pins.
