Button Setting
When the fuse/switch box and switch control panel are connected and powered
on, the default setting for each button will be to function as a simple on/off
switch for the connected light or accessory. Buttons on the switch panel can
also be set to a momentary setting or a strobe setting. This can be done by
first holding down the master on/off button, then holding any button until the
light above that button illuminates. This process can be repeated to cycle
through the three settings as needed.
Wire Connections
This switch panel control system has eight switch circuits, each has a maximum
current rating. The total operating amperage of the connected accessories
cannot exceed 60 amps(600 watts). You may have multiple electrical devices or
auxiliary LED lights connected that total more than 60 amps, but you cannot
have them turned on at the same time. Otherwise, the control box will be
damaged. The switch panel comes configured with the following fuses: Circuit 1

LIMITED WARRANTY
Go Rhino warrants to Buyer that for a period of five (5) years from the date
of shipment of the product(s) (“Warranty Period”) for black finishes and
chrome finishes, that such products will materially conform to the
specifications set forth in Go Rhino’s specifications in effect as of the date
of shipment(s) and will be free from material defects in material workmanship.
Go Rhino warrants to Buyer that for the life of the product(s) from the date
of shipment of the product(s) (“Warranty Period”) for polished stainless steel
finished products purchased after April 2004, that such products will
materially conform to the specifications set forth in Go Rhino’s
specifications in effect as of the date of shipments and will be free from
material defects in material workmanship.
Warranty claims must be accompanied with the original invoice and photos of
the product. It is the customer’s responsibility to clean regularly and
protect finish with regular applications of a nonabrasive polish that is
compatible with the product’s finish.
This warranty covers the cost of the product only and does not include the
cost of removal, installation, third party modifications or shipping of the
product. In no event shall Go Rhino be liable to buyer or any third party for
any damage or harm caused by the product or use thereof, regardless of weather
such damages were foreseeable and whether or not Go Rhino has been advised of
the possibility of such damages, not withstanding the failure of any agreed or
other remedy of its essential purpose. This warranty is void if the product
shows signs of alteration, misuse, mishandling, improper care, neglect,
improper application and/or damage due to improper installation.
With respect to any such product(s) during the limited warranty period, Go
Rhino shall, in its sole discretion, either: (i) provide a one-time repair or
replacement of such products (or the defective part) or (ii) credit or refund
the price of such products at the pro rata contract rate provided that, if Go
Rhino so requests, Buyer shall, at Go Rhino’s expense, return such product(s)
to Go Rhino. The
remedies shall be the Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy and Go Rhino’s entire
liability for any breach of the limited warrant(ies).
Go Rhino disclaims all other warranties except to the extent that any such

Finish Limited Warranty:
Limited lifetime on stainless steel products (after April 2004) 5 year
warranty on black powder coat products 5 year warranty on chrome products This
warranty does not cover exposed welds
Finish warranty covers peeling, flaking, or cracking. Washing all finishes
regularly with car wash soap and rinsing well with water is the best method
for maintaining the finish on your products. You must also protect the finish
with nonabrasive automotive wax on a regular basis. The use of any compound
which contains abrasives becomes a self-defeating exercise as the compound
scratches the finish and opens it to corrosion. The use of harsh chemicals
used to remove bugs and tar may also cause the finish to fail and should be
avoided.
