C6304NF LED WIRELESS TOW LIGHT
For Vehicles Under 80” in width
This product is intended for temporary use to provide tail lamp function as well as stop, turn and hazard indication when towing a vehicle or trailer narrower than 80 inches wide. Check with Department of Transportation to confirm all lights required for your particular tow. Please check with your dealer concerning additional lighting requirements depending upon what you will be towing.
A special note about batteries:
It is recommended to use good quality, new AA alkaline batteries and have a spare set of them on hand. While in use be sure to check every 2-3 hours that the battery indicator LED is NOT blinking. A blinking LED indicates the batteries are getting low. If the battery indicator LED is blinking when the switch is on you will need to replace all eight batteries immediately to comply with SAE/FMVSS 108 safety standards. Four batteries are found in each of two magnetic bases.
Using the Wireless Tow Lights:
1. Install fresh AA batteries into each light base per indicated polarity.
The battery tray is accessed by twisting the entire base counter­clockwise while holding the light’s housing. (See illustration). Make sure to replace the batteries in BOTH “RH” and “LH” units!
2. Connect the transmitter to your “four-flat” trailer plug on the
vehicle.
3. Attach the transmitter to steel surface at the rear of the towing
vehicle above the bumper so that the magnet holds it firmly in place after first cleaning the mounting surface and transmitter’s magnetic base. For best results place at or above the level of the rear bumper.
SWITCH
4. Turn the switch located on the bottom of the “LH” base to “On”.
5. Check that the magnetic light bases are clear of any debris that may scratch the mounting surface. Attach
the left “LH” and right “RH” lights on a flat surface as far apart as practical and at an equal distance from the sides of the vehicle/trailer being towed. Lights should be placed at the same height. Do not mount lights higher than 6 feet (381 mm) from the ground or lower than 1.25 feet (1829 mm) from the ground. The entire magnet must be touching a steel surface for optimal holding performance. Place lights to allow following vehicles optimal visibility at all times.
6. If the lights are not aligned properly detach them by tipping the light to disengage the magnetic base
before placing them again.
7. Use a tie wrap to collect any loose cable between the lights. Do not cover or obstruct the lights during
operation.
8. Verify the operation of tail lights, stop lights and both left and right turn signals. DO NOT drive your

vehicle unless all lights functioning
9. Every 2-3 hours check that the battery LED indicator near the top of the “LH” light is not flashing and that
tail, left turn, right turn and brake functions are operational. If the low battery LED indicator is flashing or the trailer lights do not function then install eight new AA batteries immediately.
10. Switch off the lights after each use and return the lights and transmitter to the original package. If
packaging is unavailable, place lights inside bags when not in use to keep the magnets clear of debris. Do not allow the magnetic bases to come in contact with each other. If lights are stored for longer than one month, remove the batteries to avoid battery leakage. Store batteries at room temperature to avoid leakage.
Important Considerations:
1. It is highly recommended to use tie-down straps/bungee cords through the loops on the base, to secure
the lights to the vehicle, when towing on rough and/or bumpy roads, or at high speeds.
2. The Wireless Magnetic Tow Light kit’s transmitter is designed to be used with standard 12-volt vehicle
systems.
3. Every 2-3 hours confirm that your brake, turn signal and running lights are operating correctly. Do not
operate your tow lights if the vehicle has faulty wiring or if some or all of the lights do not work correctly.
4. Battery Performance: For temperatures below 20°F batteries may need to be changed more often. The
LED near the top center of the “LH” light will blink if battery power is low. Immediately install all new batteries in both tow lights to ensure safe operation and to meet SAE/FMVSS 108 safety standards.
