To install the ICM CONTROLS ICM870 9A Soft Start Series, follow these steps:

1. Turn off power at the main service panel before starting the installation.
2. Ensure that the ICM870 is mounted in an area where it will not be exposed to water or the elements. Exposure to water can cause control failure and pose electrical safety hazards.
