Caution
When installing your radio in your vehicle, check that during installation
you do not damage any wiring or vehicle components that may be
hidden around the mounting position.
For optimum performance your radio needs to be installed correctly.
If you are unsure about how to install your radio, we suggest you
have your radio professionally installed by a UHF specialist or Auto
electrician. When installing the radio, avoid mounting it close to heaters
or air conditioners. Never press the PTT or CALL button before
connecting the antenna to the radio.
Screw the mounting bracket and microphone bracket to firm surfaces.
To install the radio:
1. Fix the radio bracket in a suitable location.
2. Then fix the radio in the bracket using the thumb screws.
Fitting the Microphone
The microphone uses RJ type telephone plug and socket:
1. position the microphone plug so the plastic flap faces downwards,
and press the plug into the socket unitl it ‘clicks’.
2. Gently press the rubber boot into the hole surrounding the socket
so that the slot around the boot fits neatly inside the rim of the entry
hole.
DC Power connection
The Radio is designed for 13.8 Volt DC, negative earth installations only
(i.e where the negative battery terminal connects to the chassis of the
vehicle). For installion on 24 volt system an inverter (not supplied) will
need to be used.
