Easy Connection to Accelerator Connector
Simplified wiring prevents signal malfunctions caused by
decreased voltage due to low-current circuitry.
Use with OBD Connected Products OK
With no need for a power connection to the OBD, it is
possible to use other OBD connected products without a
splitter connection.
Compact Controller Provides Genuine-Style
Installation
The compact, thin, square design with accentuated edge
allows for installation in any number of places without that
added-on look.
17 Step / 4 Mode Wide-Range Adjustment
The four modes include: “POWER” mode with 7 steps for
increasing response across all ranges, “RESPONSE”
mode with 5 steps for increasing response, like a wire
throttle, in the lower and middle ranges, “ECO” mode with
5 steps for suppressing rapid acceleration to help increase
gas mileage, and “NORMAL” mode for regular driving.

WARNING
Improper use or disregard
of these warnings may
result in the injury or death
of people.
•
When making initial settings make sure to
stop the engine and place in Parking or
Neutral. It is dangerous to carry out these
settings while the engine is running.
•
Do not work in areas where there is excessive exhaust. Due to vehicle exhaust
emission poisoning or fire may result in a
damage to humans.
•
Do not crush the cable. Please be
careful that the cable does not get
crushed by the seat rail or car door
steel plate, nor cut by any sharp
steel plate as this may cause a
poor connection or an electric short
