D Using the supplied mounting bracket

The universal mounting bracket supplied with your trans-
ceiver allows overhead or onboard mounting.
• Mount the transceiver securely with the 4 supplied screws
(M5 × 20) to a surface which is more than 10 mm thick and
can support more than 5 kg.
• Mount the transceiver so that the face of the transceiver is
at 90° to your line of sight when operating it.
CAUTION: KEEP the transceiver and microphone at least
1 meter away from your vessel's magnetic navigation
compass.
NOTE:
• Check the installation angle; the function display may
not be easy-to-read at some angles.
• When mounting the transceiver on the place that is
prone to strong vibration, use the supplied sponges be-
tween the transceiver and mounting bracket for reducing
the effect of the vibration.
