Before drilling any hole, verify that no damage will occur to any
vital part of the vehicle. Fuel tanks, transmission housings, fuel
lines, brake lines and wiring harnesses are typical items that can
be damaged when a drill bit or screw penetrates through the
mounting surface.
If mounting on a surface covered with carpet, punch holes in the
carpet with a small punch, make a small incision in the carpet,
insert a short piece of metal tubing and then drill through the
tubing. This prevents twisting the carpet with the drill flukes.

Using the six (6) self-tapping screws, secure the mounting bracket
to the mounting surface.
5.
Using the four (4) machine screws and lock washers, secure the
unit to the mounting bracket. It can be fastened in any of three (3)
different positions: parallel to the mounting surface or tilted ±20
degrees from the parallel position. See Figure 4.

INTRODUCTION
The Ericsson GE M-RK Standard Vehicular Charger
(344A4616P1)
and Enhanced Vehicular Charger (344A4616P2) units
can be used with both the M-RK I and M-RK II Personal radios with
swivel mount or belt clips attached. Any of the four batteries listed
below can be used with the MR-K I, or II radios and these chargers.

A vehicular charger enhances the operational versatility of an M-
RK radio in the mobile environment. See Table 1 for the features of
each unit.
The Standard Vehicular Charger (Repeater) (344A4616P1) is
designed to provide recharge of M-RK radio batteries without
provision for operation while in the charger. With this model charger,
M-RK radio operation is only possible outside of the charger. The
vehicular repeater is automatically disabled when the M-RK radio is
placed in the Charger and the unit performs the charging function.
The Charger has an ON/OFF repeater enable switch for operation with
the M-RK radio outside the
Charger. Both fast and slow charge
rates
are built into the charger that operate automatically based upon battery
pack voltage and temperature.
The Enhanced Vehicular Charger (344A4616P2) simultaneously
charges the M-RK's battery pack while allowing the radio to operate as
a mobile radio with an external antenna, speaker, and microphone.
The same fast and slow charge rates are provided (as in Part 1) that
depend upon the battery pack voltage and temperature conditions.
Mobile radio operation is accomplished through the use of an external
speaker, external microphone and external antenna connections. A
speaker amplifier in the charger unit provides up to 10 watts of audio
output power to an external speaker. A volume control on the charger
