Initial Installation

For a mobile station set up

Location

The transceiver may be installed in any position in your car, where the controls and microphone are
easily accessible and it does not interfere with the safe operation of the vehicle or the performance
of the set. If your vehicle is equipped with air bags, be certain your radio will not interfere with
their deployment. If you are uncertain about where to mount the unit, contact your vehicle's manu-
facturer. Please refer the next page for positioning the front control unit.

Installing a Mobile Antenna

Use a 50 ohm coaxial cable to connect the antenna. Mobile antennas require an appropriate mount-
ing base for proper installation and operation. For more information, see the documentation for
your antenna.

IMPORTANT: After installing your antenna, ensure that you have the best possible SWR reading.

High RF environments can cause severe damage to your unit. Ensure that you are not

in a high RF environment when operating the transceiver.

*Use provided screws only(M4 x 8mm)

to fix the bracket. Irregular screws
may damage the circuit-board inside.
