Mounting the Microphone

For the sake of safety, mount the microphone in the following location.
• In a stable and secure location.
• In a location that does not inhibit safely driving the vehicle.
• Mount the microphone in a location where the driver's voice can
easily be picked up.
Choose a location for the microphone that can easily pick up the drivers
voice. Requiring the driver to move towards the microphone for
audibility causes a distraction that could be dangerous.
