Installing The Transceiver - Kenwood Nexedge NX-720H Instruction Manual

• Be sure to leave enough slack in the cables so the transceiver can be removed
for servicing while keeping the power applied.

■ Installing the Transceiver

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.
Note: Before installing the transceiver, check how far the mounting screws will extend below
the surface. When drilling mounting holes, be careful not to damage vehicle wiring or parts.
1 Mark the position of the holes in the dash, using the mounting bracket as a
template. Using a 4.2 mm (5/32 inch) drill bit, drill the holes, then attach the
mounting bracket using the supplied screws.
• Mount the transceiver 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 the microphone hanger in a location where it will be within easy reach of the
user.
• The 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 one that is rated with a higher value.
