Replacing Fuse; Frequency Band Selection - Midland Alan 78Plus Multi B Manual De Instrucciones

INSTALLATION
Safety and convenience are the primary consideration for mounting any pie-
ce of mobile equipment. All controls must readily available to the operator
without interfering with the movements necessary for safe operation of the
vehicle. Set the proper position in the car to install the transceiver using the
supplied supporting bracket or eventually the slide bracket. Tighten the retai-
ning screws. The fixing bracket must be close to metallic parts.
POWER SUPPLY
Be sure the transceiver is OFF. In the direct-voltage power supply, is very im-
portant to observe the polarity even if the unit is protected against the acci-
dental inversion:
Red = positive pole (+)
Black = negative pole (-)
The same colors are present on the battery and in the fuse box of the car.
Correctly connect the cable terminal to the battery.
ATTENTION: To obtain best performances we recommend to install the ra-
dio in a place with enough air circulation.
INSTALLING AN ANTENNA
1. Place the antenna as high as possible
2. The longer is the antenna, the better will be the performance
3. If possible, mount the antenna in the center of whatever surface you
choose
4. Keep antenna cable away from noise sources, such as the ignition switch,
gauges,etc.
5. Make sure you have a solid metal-to-metal ground connection.
6. Prevent cable damage during antenna installation.
WARNING: To avoid damage, never operate your CB radio without connec-
ting a proper antenna. A periodical control of the cable and of the S.W.R. is
recommended.

FREQUENCY BAND SELECTION

The frequency bands must be chosen according to the country where you
are going to operate.
Procedure:
1. Switch off the unit.
2. Turn it on while pushing the "AM/FM" e "SCAN" buttons at the same time.
3. Rotate the "CHANNEL" knob and select the desired frequency band (see
