INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS

RWARNING!
• NEVER remove the fuses from the cable connecting the
transceiver to a power source, such as a car battery.
• NEVER connect the transceiver directly to a 24 V battery.
The transceiver may not receive well on some frequencies
when installed in a hybrid vehicle, or any type of electric ve-
hicle (fuel cell vehicle). This is because vehicle’s electric com-
ponents such as the inverter system generate a lot of electric
noise.
• DO NOT use a cigarette lighter socket as a power source
when operating in a vehicle. The plug may cause voltage
drops and ignition noise may be superimposed onto transmit
or receive audio.
• Use a rubber grommet when passing the DC power cable
through a metal plate to prevent a short circuit.
RWARNING! (About DC power supply)
• Make sure DC power cable polarity is correct.
Red: Positive + terminal
Black: Negative – terminal
• DO NOT pull or bend the DC power cable.
