PLANNING THE INSTALLATION

Before starting, plan the radio installation carefully so that it will be:
• safe for the operator and passengers.
• convenient for the operator to use.
• neat.
• protected from water damage.
• easy to service.
• out of the way of auto mechanics.
It is suggested that the radio be installed by one of the many Authorized
Service Centers located throughout the United States. These experienced
service centers can provide a proper radio installation and make any final
adjustments that may be needed.
Interference with Vehicular Electronics - Electronic fuel injection
systems, electronic anti-skid braking systems, electronic cruise controls
systems, etc., are typical of the types of electronic devices which may
be prone to malfunction due to the lack of protection from radio
frequency energy present when transmitting. If the vehicle contains such
equipment, consult the dealer for the make of vehicle and enlist his aid
in determining if such electronic circuits will perform normally when
the radio is transmitting.
