MOBILE INSTALLATION

2
Install the transceiver in a safe, convenient position inside
3
your vehicle that minimizes danger to your passengers and
4
yourself while the vehicle is in motion. For example,
consider installing the transceiver under the dash in front of
5
the passenger seat so that knees or legs will not strike the
radio during sudden braking of your vehicle. Try to pick a
6
well-ventilated location that is shielded from direct sunlight.
