WARNING
The ZAPI™ controllers can hold an electrical
charge for several minutes after the key switch
has been turned OFF. To prevent injury, discharge
the controllers by connecting a 200-ohm, 2-watt
resistor between the battery positive connector
and battery negative connector on the controller
and hold there for 5 seconds.
