Loading The Radio Into The Apx Va - Motorola APX6000 User Manual

In some installations, the ignition switch is bypassed so that the
APX VA charges the radio battery with the ignition switch turned off.
If this describes your installation, be careful not to discharge the
vehicle battery by allowing the APX VA to operate for extended
periods of time with a radio loaded and the vehicle ignition switch
turned off.
Note: Turning the vehicle's ignition switch off WILL NOT turn the radio off. To
avoid long-term radio battery run-down, do not leave the radio on (or off)
in the APX VA with the vehicle's ignition off (Even when radio is off, the
system still draws current from the car battery.)

Loading the Radio Into the APX VA

Make sure that all the labels on the radio and battery that are not
shipped with the standard product are removed. These labels, if
not removed, may peel off and interfere with proper operation or
damage the APX VA.
1. Remove the universal connector cover or any accessories attached to the
radio universal connector (see your radio's User Guide).
2. Referring to Figure 11 and Figure 12, orient the radio with battery
attached-speaker or keypad facing upward or outward. Then, slide the
radio into the APX VA's radio pocket as far as it can go until the radio is
fully inserted in the pocket.
