against vibrations, since, in extreme cases, vibrations can
destroy LED circuit board.
The electrical installation and the mechanical installation on
the vehicle must be carried out correctly. Incorrect installation
can cause short-circuits or invalidate the type approval.
The electric cables must not be subjected to any tensile
forces, even when the steering is at full lock. The cables
must be routed in such a way that they cannot chafe and
they must not bend. If necessary, an extra cable sheath or a
rubber cable feed-through can be used.
Any resistors that are installed may heat up during use and
therefore must not be installed in the direct vicinity of heat-
sensitive components or in closed housings. Depending on
the duty cycle of the turn signals, temperatures of 80°C or
more may occur during operation. Only resistors with heat
sink may be used.
The turn signal itself also warms up during operation – skin
contact must therefore be avoided.
Keep plastic films and other packaging materials away from
children. There is a danger of suffocation.
5 | STORAGE
Store your turn signal in a closed room that is protected against
the weather and moisture. Humidity should not exceed 80%.
6 | INSTALLATION
LEGAL NOTICES REGARDING THE INSTALLATION OF TURN
SIGNALS:
If the motorcycle was registered according to EC law (almost all
vehicles since date of first registration from around 1998), the
following measurements apply:
Distance between the rear turn signals of at least 180 mm
(inside edge of turn signal lens to inside edge of turn signal
lens), height above the carriageway 350-1200 mm.
Distance between the front turn signals of at least 240 mm
(inside edge of turn signal lens to inside edge of turn signal
lens), height above the carriageway 350-1200 mm.
Distance from the rearmost point of the vehicle to the turn
signal should be a maximum of 300 mm.
