INSTALLATION

Installation Planning

Planning is the key to fast, easy installation. Before a hole is drilled or a wire is run, inspect the vehicle and determine how and where you intend to mount the junction box, phone cradle, speaker, visor microphone, remote PTT button, remote palm microphone (optional), and speaker (see Figure 1). Plan wire and cable runs to provide maximum protection from pinching, crushing and overheating.

A properly installed Car Kit will minimize service calls and equipment downtime. Refer to the following guidelines when planning the installation:

• Use the provided hardware for mounting.

• Ensure that the cables are not stretched, and not subjected to heat from engine or transmission.

• Crimp connectors securely.

• Do not attach components to any part of the vehicle that is not rigid or is subject to excessive vibration.

• Do not run cables over sharp edges that could cause wear or chaffing of cable insulation.

4 CAR KIT OWNER’S MANUAL

• Do not install the components in locations where they might cause interference to the operation of the vehicle controls.

• If it is necessary to penetrate the firewall, check opposite side for cable clearance before drilling and use a grommet to protect the cable where it passes through.

Recommended Tools

The followingtools are recommended for proper installationof your Car Kit.

• Portable Drill

•Hammer

• Center Punch

• Phillips #2 Screwdriver

Junction Box Installation

In most vehicles, the best location for mounting the junction box is just under the dash, or under the front seat. It m ust be protected from dirt and moisture, and m ust be afforded adequate space for cooling. There must also be sufficient space to allow for the connection of accessories.

DC Power Cable Installation

The Car Kit must be operated only in negativeground electrical systems. Reverse polarity (positive ground) will trigger protection circuits which causethe cablefuse to open. Check the ground polarity beforeyou be gin installation to prevent wa sted time and effort. Only 12V DC automotive systems are directly supported. For 24V DC operation, external converter (NNTN 4079) is required.

The DC power cable shipped with t he Car Kit is long enough for installation in most vehicles. Begin the power cable installation in the following manner.

1. Routethe red and black leads of the main power cable to convenient chassisground and positivesupply voltage connection points. Ifit is necessary to penetrate the firewall, use an existing opening or, if necessary, drill a new hole of approximately 9/16 inch or 3.5 cm. Insert a grommet into the hole to prevent damage to the power cable. When making connections on the engine side of the firewall, additionalin-line fuse holders (included) should be used at the connection points.

2. Cut the black lead to the desired length.

• If the connection is to be made under the dash or in the vehicle cabin, connect the black lead directly to the chassis of the vehicle.

• If connection is made i n the engine compartment, connect the black in-line fuse holder between the black lead of the power cable and the desired chassis connection point.

NOTE:

It is not good practice to connect the black lead to the negative (-) battery terminal; the Car Kit could be damaged if there were a malfunction in the vehicle’s electrical system.

3. Cut the red lead to the desired length. This lead will be connected such that it has positive supply voltage at all times, even when the vehicle is turned off.

• If connection is to be made under the dash or in the vehicle cabin, connect the red lead to a positive supply voltage point.

• If connection is to be made in the engine compartment or directly to the battery, connect the red in-line fuse holder between the red lead of the power cable and the desired positive voltage connection point.

4. Route and connect the green lead to a convenient ignition-switched supply point in the vehicle.

NOTE:

An ignition switched accessory terminal can be verified by measuring the terminal while operating the vehicle’s key switch. With the ignition ke y in the “accessory-ON” position, the terminal voltage should measurethe vehicle’s battery voltage. With the switch in the “OFF” position, it should measure near zero.

5. If the vehicle’s audio system supports an external muting feature, route and connect the orange wire to the audio system. Otherwise, the orange wire may be left unconnected and cut off or tied out of the way.

NOTE:

The Car Kit supports an “Entertainment Mute” function when connected to an audio system that provides for external muting. This function is compatible with systems that mute the audio output when the control line is connected to ground.

Antenna Installation

The best l ocation for mounting the antenna is the center of a large, flat, conductive surface. In almost all vehicles, these requirements are best satisfied by mounting the antenna at the center of the roof. Some vehicles have a large trunk lid that also provides a good antenna location. If the trunk lid is used, connect grounding straps between the trunk lid and the vehicles chassis to ensure the trunk lid is adequately grounded.

For best performance, use a low-loss coaxial cable with t he highest gain antenna.

The three Motorola tested and approved antennas that may be used with this Car Kit are:

1. RAF4136AMM - Magnetic Antenna

2. RRA4914B - Mobile Roof Mount Antenna

3. FAD5524 - Mobile Window Antenna Use only an approved antennaand referto theinstallationinstructionsof

the antenna you have selected.

NOTE:

Antennas with gain exceeding 9db do not comply with FCC RF exposures and are not allowed for use with this product

External Speaker Installation

A common location for mounting the speaker is on the firewall, beneath the dashboard, on the passenger’sside of the vehicle. Hanger and trunnion brackets are provided for mounting the speaker.

1. It is recommended that the speaker be located 3ft (1m) from the visor m icrophone. Avoid placing the speaker whe re it faces the visor m icrophone.

2. Place the speaker and speaker cable at least 1 foot (30 cm) away from any part of the portable phone’s antenna.
