At the marked locations, drill holes that are slightly smaller than the screws.
Use caution not to damage wiring or components that are located behind
the mounting surface.
Using the provided screws and lock washers, attach the mounting bracket
to your vehicle.
Attach the two self-adhesive rubber washers to the inside of the mounting
bracket sides, over the holes that are used when attaching the bracket to
the scanner’s side holes. The rubber washers help protect the scanner’s
case from scratches.
Slide the scanner into the mounting bracket assembly, and use the two
provided knurled knobs to secure the scanner within the mounting bracket.
Connect the supplied DC power cable to a power source in your vehicles
as follows:
Disconnect the cable from the negative (-) terminal of your vehicle’s battery
prior to attempting any connections to your vehicle’s electrical system.
Note: Disconnecting your battery may reset certain devices in your vehicle,
such as automotive audio systems, navigation systems, alarm systems,
keyless entry systems, etc.
Route the supplied DC power cord between a power source and the
mounting location for your scanner.
Ground the black wire of the supplied DC power cord to your vehicle’s
chassis drilling a small hole in a metal frame member underneath your
dashboard and using a small sheet metal screw to secure the black wire to
the frame.
Note: Be sure the grounding screw makes complete contact with the metal
frame of your vehicle.
Connect the red wire of the supplied DC power cord to a voltage source
that turns on and off with ignition switch, such as a spare accessory
terminal in your vehicle’s fuse box.
Insert the coaxial power plug into the DC 13.8V jack on the rear of the
radio.
Reconnect the cable to the negative (-) terminal of your vehicle’s battery.
For temporary installations, you may wish to use a cigarette lighter cable to
power your scanner.
