Installation

Tools and Hardware Needed

  • Drill bit
  • Screwdriver

Mounting Considerations

You should select a mounting location that allows the best range for Bluetooth® audio streaming.

  • Select a dry location with a flat mounting surface that has no direct exposure to water droplets or spray.
  • To avoid interference, select an elevated mounting location away from metalwork.
  • Mount the BT100 device within 10 m (33 ft.) of your Bluetooth device.
  • For the best range, select a mounting location that has no barriers between the BT100 device and your Bluetooth device.
  • Ensure the provided 1.5 m (5 ft.) wiring harness extends from the mounting location to your stereo.
  • To avoid interference with a magnetic compass, do not install the device closer to a compass than the compass-safe distance value listed in the product specifications.
  • To avoid interference with navigational and radio communications equipment (for example, VHF radio), do not install the BT100 device near such equipment.

Mounting


Before you install any equipment, disconnect the vessel's power supply. Remove the lead from the battery. Investigate the location of the vessel's fuel tanks and electrical wires. Protect wires to prevent damage.
