WARNING
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.
Connecting the power cable
CAUTION
The transceiver operates in 12 V negative ground systems only! Check the battery
polarity and voltage of the vehicle before installing the transceiver.
1 Check for an existing hole, conveniently located in the fi rewall, where the
power cable can be passed through.
• If no hole exists, use a circle cutter to drill a hole, then install a rubber grommet.
2 Run the power cable through the fi rewall and into the engine compartment.
3 Connect the red lead to the positive (+) battery terminal and the black lead to
the negative (–) battery terminal.
• Place the fuse as close to the battery as possible.
4 Coil the surplus cable and secure it with a retaining band.
• Be sure to leave enough slack in the cables so the transceiver can be removed for
servicing while keeping the power applied.
Installing the Transceiver
WARNING
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.
