PREPARATION
Various electronic equipment in your vehicle may malfunction if they are not properly protected from
the radio frequency energy which is present while transmitting. Typical examples include electronic
fuel injection, anti-skid braking, and cruise control. If your vehicle contains such equipment, consult
the dealer for the make of vehicle and enlist his/her aid in determining if they will perform normally
while transmitting.
■ Power Cable Connection
The transceiver operates in 12 V negative ground systems only! Check the battery polarity and
voltage of the vehicle before installing the transceiver.

■ Installing the Transceiver
For passenger safety, install the transceiver securely using the supplied mounting bracket and
screw set, so the transceiver will not break loose in the event of a collision.
Note: Before installing the transceiver, check how far the mounting screws will extend below
the surface. When drilling mounting holes, be careful not to damage vehicle wiring or parts.
1 Mark the position of the holes in the dash, using the mounting bracket as a
template. Using a 4.2 mm (5/32 inch) drill bit, drill the holes, then attach the
mounting bracket using the supplied screws.
• Mount the transceiver within easy reach of the user and where there is suffi cient
space at the rear of the transceiver for cable connections.
2 Connect the antenna and the supplied power cable to the transceiver.
3 Slide the transceiver into the mounting bracket and secure it using the supplied hex-
headed screws.
4 Mount the microphone hanger in a location where it will be within easy reach of the
user.
• The microphone and microphone cable should be mounted in a place where
they will not interfere with the safe operation of the vehicle.
When replacing the fuse in the DC power cable, be sure to replace it with a fuse of the same
value. Never replace a fuse with one that is rated with a higher value.
