TowMate, 4L-3600, Wireless Transmitter Instructions Operation 1. Locate the receptacle on the truck designated for trailer/towing lights. 2. Firmly plug your TowMate wireless transmitter into the receptacle making sure the latch on the door locks the transmitter in place by latching to the notch on the body of the transmitter. 3. The unit should now send wireless signals to your TowMate wireless tow light in correlation with the trucks’ signals. *Notes: TowMate wireless transmitters are wired to the most widely used pin configurations, however there may be some truck manufacturers who wire their receptacles counter to the standard. If your unit does not operate properly, please consult the trucks manual to verify how the receptacle is wired and compare it to the below pin-outs of TowMate wireless transmitters. If the wiring matches up but the unit is still not operating, be sure the ground pin is grounded to the truck chassis in order to eliminate the possibility of a ‘floating ground’ that could cause the unit to not operate properly/at all. . Wiring/Pin-out . If you have any further questions, feel free to call 800-680-4455 THIS DEVICE COMPLIES WITH PART 15 OF THE FCC RULES, OPERATION IS SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING TWO CONDITIONS: (1) THIS DEVICE MAY NOT CAUSE HARMFUL INTERFERENCE AND (2) THIS DEVICE MUST ACCEPT ANY INTERFERENCE RECEIVED, INCLUDING INTERFERENCE THAT MAY CAUSE UNDESIRED OPERATION FCC ID: UZVTM500 MADE IN USA

Pursuant to Sections 0.457(d)(1)(ii) and 0.459 of the Commission’s Rules, TowMate, LLC. hereby requests permanent confidential treatment of information accompanying this application as listed below: Type of Confidentiality Requested Exhibit Short Term 3 Permanent Block Diagrams 2 Short Term 3 External Photos Short Term 3 Permanent* 1 Internal Photos Short Term 3 Permanent Operation Description or Theory of Operation 2 Short Term 3 Permanent Parts List & Placement Diagrams, BOM 2 Short Term 3 Permanent Tune-Up Procedure 2 Short Term 3 Permanent Schematics 2 Short Term 3 Test Setup Photos Short Term 3 Permanent* User’s Manual The above materials contain trade secrets and proprietary information not customarily released to the public. The public disclosure of these matters might be harmful to the Applicant and provide unjustified benefits to its competitors. The Applicant understands that pursuant to Rule 0.457(d)(1)(ii), disclosure of this Application and all accompanying materials will not be made before the date of the Grant for this Application. Yours sincerely, Company Officer: Bryan Anderson (Owner) Telephone: 479-925-2131 Email: [email protected] 1 - The asterisked items (*) require further justification before permanent confidentiality will be allowed. These also currently require review by the FCC under their Permit-But-Ask policy before the grant is issued and can delay completion of an application. Further justification should be added to the note above. One such example for a potted device would be: “The EUT is FULLY potted using a non-removable epoxy based material. Removal of potting material causes irreparable damage to TOWMATE, LLC 15704 E. Hwy 12 Rogers, Arkansas 72756 Phone: (800) 680.4455 | Fax: (479) 925.3494 | E-mail address: [email protected] | www.TowMate.com___________________ internal circuitry. See photographs exhibits that outline the device before and after potting.” 2 - These items require no additional justification to be held confidential but must be requested regardless. Note that most Part 15 device do not require a tune-up procedure. If no tune-up procedure is required, then do not check the tune-up procedure box. 3 - These items are unique to the FCC only and require additional fees. It allows for keeping all items confidential until product begins shipping. Once product starts shipping then BABT must be notified to cancel the short term confidentiality.

16162 Exposure Supplemental Report Page 1 of 1 1.0 Maximum Permissible Exposure Evaluation (Supplements the test report.) The measured power is considered for the intended use of the device and resulting RF exposure to the user. 1.2 Criteria Section Reference Date KDB 447498 D01 Mobile Portable RF Exposure v05r01 // RSS‐102 Issue 4 March 2010, Notice 2013 DRS0911 2015‐01‐07 1.3 Procedure Using measurement of peak power and considering the intended application, determine the permissible exposure level, applicability of exclusion, or whether additional exposure tests (SAR) are indicated. When applicable justify conclusion for selected exposure level and separation distance. 1.4 Power to Exposure Calculation Highest operating frequency is 418 MHz. Power is determined from the measured field strength and with antenna gain included by default. SAR exemption method was applied. Table 1.4.1 Exposure Source Duty Cycle Results From Test Report Measured On Time (msec) Measured Time Interval (msec) Exposure Duty Cycle Factor Calculation Result (dB) Duty Cycle Factor Allowed (dB) 9.0513 91.4438 = 10 * Log 10 ( 9.0513 msec / 91.4438 msec )‐10.04 ‐10.04 Table 1.4.2 Power Calculation for Exposure Measured Field Strength dBμV/m at 10 m (Peak Detection) Calculated Peak EIRP dBm Source Duty Cycle Factor dB Calculated Average EIRP dBm EIRP In Linear Terms mW 77.1 ‐7.67 ‐10.04 ‐17.71 0.017 1.5 SAR Exemption Calculation – 3.0 Criteria Calculation (max power including tune up tolerance = 0.017 mW): [(0.017mW)/(20 mm)] · [√0.418(GHz)] ≤ 2.96 0.0023 ≤ 3.0 Therefore, the device meets the applicable FCC SAR exemption requirements. This device meets the SAR Evaluation Exemption criteria in RSS-102 Clause 2.5.1, based on the output power being less than 200mW for general public use (3 kHz – 1 GHz). ***
