NSTALLING THE RANSCEIVER
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.
1 Mark the position of the holes in the dash by using the mounting bracket as a
template. Drill the holes, then attach the mounting bracket using the supplied
self-tapping screws.
• Be sure to mount the transceiver in a location where the controls are within easy
reach of the user and where there is sufficient 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.
4 Mount a microphone hanger in a location where it will be within easy reach of
the user.
• The optional microphone and microphone cable should be mounted in a place
where they will not interfere with the safe operation of the vehicle.
When replacing the fuse in the DC power cable, be sure to replace it with a fuse of the same value.
Never replace a fuse with a fuse that has a higher value.
