When Installing the car phone avoid positioning the head control unit where it may
disrupt the proper operation of the vehicle and/or its components, such as
car stereo, air bags, cubbyhole, glove compartment, ashtray, lighter, gear stick,
hand brake, etc.
Attach the car phone to a stable surface, in a position that is
safe and convenient for the driver to use.
Special warning: Do not position the head control unit in front of the air bag or
where it may impair air bag performance. Verify that the control unit does not face
the sun or source of humidity, such as air conditioner vents.
When the phone is powered off insert the SIM its into socket at the right side of the
phone.
Install the microphone at a distance of no
more than 30 cm (12 inch) away from the
driver’s mouth, ideally on the upper right
hand side of the sun visor and away from
any noise source such as windscreens,
window, fan/air conditioner, car stereo etc.
Make sure the microphone is at a distance
of at least 1.5m (4.9 ft) from the speaker
and is not directed towards the speaker.
Make sure that the microphone is correctly
positioned. See picture below for
microphone position.
Microphone Location:
Slots towards the driver
Do not thread the microphone cable close to antenna cable, to avoid audio interference.
Plug the microphone cable into the compatible connection in the octopus cable.
Important: Make sure that the microphone cable does not interfere with the steering
wheel or the pedals of the vehicle.
Attention! The speaker and microphone should be pointed towards opposite
directions to avoid echo.

Speaker Location
Install the speaker on the side of the central console, ideally alongside the legs of
the passenger sitting beside the driver, as far as possible from the microphone.
Thread the speaker cable under the carpet along the floor of the vehicle.
Plug the speaker cable into the compatible connection in the octopus cable.
Verify that the cable does not interfere with the proper operation of the vehicle and/or
its components.
Do not conceal the speaker behind any obstacle such as dashboard, glove
compartment, carpet or any other barrier which will result in poor audio quality.
Attention! The speaker and microphone (which is fitted on the sun visor above the
driver) should be pointed towards opposite directions to avoid echo. Speaker slots
should be pointed towards passenger door.

RF Antenna
Various RF antenna models can be installed for the Motorola in-vehicle product line.
The antenna type (glass, roof mount, marine or RV antenna types) should best
match the customer's application.
Eiectricai Requirements
Motorola mandates that the antenna meet the following
specifications:
VSWR <= 2:1
Gain: 3dBi @ 806-960MHz
2dBi @ 1850-1990MHz
Antenna Connector:
• North American models use SMA Male antenna connector.
• European models use FME antenna connector.
• The required connector in other regions depends on the specific model and may
be either FME or SMA Male.
Materiai and Environmental Information
The mechanical configuration should meet outdoor conditions with appropriate
temperature range for customer applications.
Motorola recommends the following characteristics:
• RF Cable: RG58U, PVC coated/polyethylene dialectic cable;
• Operating temperature: -30°C to h-85°C;
• Heat and UV stabilized;
• Flammability UL94V0;
• For on-glass antenna, use adhesive pad with temperature range of -40°C to h-90°C
and bond not affected by moisture.
Motorola recommends the following antenna suppliers:
PCTEL Antenna Specialists, www.antenna.com.
For 850/1900MHz on-glass antenna with SMA male connector use P/N APDM928S.
Panorama Antennas,
For 900/1800MHz on-glass antenna with FME connector use P/N GDE-5F
For 900/1800MHZ on-glass antenna with SMA Male connector, use P/N GDE-5S.
www.panorama-antennas.com.
Antenna Installation
Attention! Ensure the antenna Is located at least 20 cm away from driver and
passengers.
Attention! To avoid audio interference, do not thread the antenna cable close to
the microphone cable.
Use original antenna plug and clamping tools only. Test antenna and cable performance
using a VSWR meter.
The preferred position for on-glass antenna is either on the upper right side or upper
left side of the windshield, opposite from the driver's seat. Should another cellular
device already be installed in the vehicle, the antennas should be located at a
distance of at least 30cm (1 foot) from the other.
Note: Certain car models include a 'heat reflective' front windshield and therefore
it is necessary to glue the antenna on the side or on the rear windshield only.

Cable connections
Power
Connect the RED wire to a positive (+) 12V poie for steady power suppiy.
Ensure the use of a 2A/250V fuse.
Ground
Connect the BLACK wire to a negative poie (-) in the vehicie body. Ensure
the use of a 2A/250V fuse.
Ignition
Connect the GREEN wire to car IGN voltage and check the appropriate
voitage using a voltmeter. This connection switches the phone on when
turning the Ignition on and It switches the phone off when turning the Ignition
off. Ensure the use of a 2A/250V fuse.
Entertainment Mute
To mute the stereo system when receiving or dialing a cail, connect the
ORANGE wire to the car stereo system entertainment mute connection.
*Ent. Mute is an optional feature.
* The entertainment mute functionality depends on its support by the car stereo system.
Auxiliary alert
Connect the WHITE wire to the car’s horn and/or to the car's light connection
to turn on the lights and/or to activate the horn when receiving a call.
*Aux. Alert is an optional feature.
*Certain M800 models have a 3-wires connection, without Auxiliary alert and entertainment mute wires.

Heavy vehicles with 24v
When installing the mobile car phone in trucks or in any other heavy vehicle with
24 volt battery, connect the RED wire via 24VDC to 12VDC (SOW) voltage converter.
The Ignition line (GREEN) in M900 & M930 can be connected directly to the truck
Ignition switch (24V).
Data connection
The mini USB connection enables using the car phone as a modem or to synchronize
data with an external computer using Motorola PhoneTools (MPT) software.
The USB also enables authorized technicians to maintain the car phone tor technical
service purposes (software programming).

GPS Installation
The placement of the GPS receiver, Including aesthetic concealment of the cable.
Is Important tor navigation performance.
Instructions:
1. Locate the best installation spot for the GPS accessory. The GPS should be
positioned in a place with the best "line of sight" to the sky in order to receive
proper GPS satellite reception:
• A typical installation is generally performed on the dashboard, underneath
the windshield.
• If your vehicle Is designed with a ‘Heat Reflective’ or ‘Comfort’ windscreen, it
Is recommended that the accessory be Installed elsewhere In the vehicle such
as the rear windscreen, so that better GPS results can be generated.
2. Clean the surface of the Installation location using alcohol.
3. Peel off the cover paper from the adhesive on the back of the GPS accessory,
press the unit against the dashboard surface and hold in place tor approximafely
20 seconds.
4. For Increased safe^, it is recommended to connect the GPS cable under the
dashboard with a zip tie. Route the GPS cable neatly towards the phone head
unit. Make sure It does not interfere with the airbag or control levers.
5. With the phone switched off, connect the GPS cable to the 14 pin connector of
the octopus cable.
6. Following installation, with the car positioned In an outdoor environment, launch
the navigation application to verify satellite reception.
