WARNING: While the following information is intended to assist with installation
in a vehicle, it is the purchaser’s responsibility to ensure that the
mounting cradle is installed with due regard to vehicle-occupant
safety, particularly in the event of a vehicle accident. Codan accepts no
responsibility or liability in the event of injury to vehicle occupants or
any other damage due to insecure or otherwise unsafe or inappropriate

Positioning the transceiver
When choosing a location for the components of the transceiver, you should be aware
of the environmental ratings of each item of equipment as set out in the specifications.
They must be mounted in a suitable position that:
• provides physical protection to the transceiver and its cables
• provides easy access to the controls
• provides a free flow of air through the rear cooling fins to dissipate the heat
generated by the transceiver
• does not expose the unit to direct sunlight
• does not expose the unit to water ingress
• will not cause injury to motor-vehicle occupants if an accident occurs, for
example, do not mount the transceiver overhead
• minimises vibration and shock
• ensures correct connection and operation
• provides easy access for maintenance
WARNING: The units of the mobile station should only be mounted on structural
components of the vehicle body and not to dress panels. The areas used
for mounting may require reinforcement.
