Do you have a question about the Nokia NSE-5 Series and is the answer not in the manual?
The provided document is an installation guide for two car kits, CARK 64 and CARK 91, designed for Nokia NSE-5 Series Transceivers. These kits are part of the "Programmes After Market Services" and are intended to provide hands-free communication in vehicles.
Function Description: The CARK 64 is a basic car kit that allows a Nokia NSE-5 series phone to be used in a vehicle. Its primary function is to securely hold the phone and provide a means for charging it while in the car. It is designed to integrate the mobile phone into the vehicle's environment for convenient access and power supply.
Usage Features: The CARK 64 includes a Phone Holder (MBC-1) which firmly positions the phone in a convenient location within the vehicle. This holder can be attached using either a Swivel Mount (HHS-9) for adjustable positioning or a fixed Mounting Plate (MKU-1). The swivel mount allows for flexible adjustment to achieve the most comfortable viewing angle and accessibility for the user. The holder is designed so that the phone's display is clearly visible under various lighting conditions, without distracting the driver. It also ensures that the keypad is easily reachable. A key design consideration is that the holder should not obstruct the driver's control or operation of the vehicle, nor impede their observation of traffic. The kit also includes a Mobile Charger (LCH-9) which connects to the vehicle's cigarette lighter socket, enabling the phone to be charged from the vehicle's power supply (11-32 V). The phone is released from the holder by pressing one of its release buttons, which can be installed to be partially hidden if desired.
Maintenance Features: The document emphasizes that the car kit should be installed by an experienced installer using only genuine Nokia parts to maintain warranty validity. End users are advised against attempting installation without professional assistance due to the need for special tools and knowledge. Before installation, it is crucial to disconnect the vehicle's battery and keep it disconnected throughout the procedure to prevent electrical hazards. Safety warnings also include avoiding smoking or open flames near the fuel system, ensuring no damage to electrical cables, hydraulic lines, fuel lines, or safety equipment (like airbags), and verifying that normal vehicle control (brakes, steering) is not impaired. The car kit is designed for vehicles with a 11-32 V negative grounding system; use with other supply voltages or alternative polarity will damage the equipment. The phone should not be left switched on for extended periods without the vehicle's engine running, as this could drain the battery. After installation, the equipment must be tested to ensure satisfactory operation and that its position does not hinder the driver's ability to control the vehicle. This includes making a test call with the engine running and then switched off to confirm functionality in both states.
Function Description: The CARK 91 is an advanced car kit that provides hands-free operation for the Nokia NSE-5 series phone in a vehicle. Beyond holding and charging the phone, it integrates the phone with the vehicle's audio system, allowing for hands-free calls through a dedicated microphone and speaker. It also offers features like ignition sense for automatic power management and car radio muting during calls.
Usage Features: The CARK 91 includes an Advanced Active Car Holder (MCC-1) for secure phone placement, similar to the CARK 64, with options for adjustable (HHS-9 Swivel Mount) or fixed (MKU-1 Mounting Plate) installation. The holder ensures optimal visibility of the phone's display and easy access to the keypad, without obstructing the driver's view or control. The core of the hands-free functionality is the Advanced HF Unit (HFU-2), which enables hands-free mode. This unit is powered by the vehicle's battery via a Power Cable (PCH-4J) and supplies power to the phone. An HF Microphone (HFM-8) connects to the HFU-2, designed to be installed as close to the driver's mouth as possible and on a mechanically quiet surface, at least 3 feet (1 meter) away from the HF Speaker (HFS-12) to prevent acoustic feedback. The HF Speaker (HFS-12) connects to the HFU-2, providing clear audio for calls.
The Power Cable (PCH-4J) has several specialized wires:
The car kit is designed to operate with a high-quality external mobile antenna (not supplied), and users are advised to consult a dealer for the most suitable antenna type. Cables should be routed away from the vehicle's electronic systems and protected from mechanical stress or sharp edges to prevent interference and damage.
Maintenance Features: Similar to the CARK 64, the CARK 91 requires professional installation by an experienced installer using genuine Nokia parts to maintain warranty. Strict adherence to safety warnings is paramount: disconnect the vehicle's battery during installation, avoid smoking or open flames near the fuel system, prevent damage to vehicle electrical/hydraulic/fuel lines and safety equipment, and ensure no impairment of vehicle control or airbag operation. The car kit is specifically designed for vehicles with a 12 V negative grounding system; using it with other supply voltages or alternative polarity will cause damage. The phone should not be left on for extended periods without the engine running to avoid draining the vehicle's battery. After installation, comprehensive testing is required to confirm satisfactory operation and that the unit's placement does not impede the driver's ability to control the vehicle. This includes making a test call with the engine running and then switched off. The installation should also consider any special customer requirements, but installers must refuse any requests that are illegal or unsafe.
