There are no specific accessories required to complete an installation. However, depending upon
the installation circumstances, items such as a pedestal to mount the MT handset cradle or hand
held cellular phone cradle may be required. These accessories are commonly available and
manufactured by companies other than Mitsubishi Electronics America, Inc.
The location of the antenna must be considered. The system should be tested by originating and
receiving actual calls after completing the installation. For the antenna, it is desirable to select a
high location with a large ground plane. The roof top of the vehicle is particularly good. When
installing the antenna, it is necessary to consider the mechanical structure of and the physical
location of the installation.
As mentioned previously, always check with the vehicle owner to agree on placement of the
system components (Common Transceiver (CTU), Handset (H/S), Antenna (AU), etc.). Be sure
to inform the vehicle owner if you intend to drill holes or apply permanent adhesives in or on any
of the cosmetic interior or external surfaces of the vehicle. Remind them that the holes will be
there if the system is removed from the vehicle.
In order for the installer to avoid problems during and after installation, it is always
recommended to perform two basic steps before the actual installation begins: Vehicle Pre-
Check and Installation Planning. Occupant and vehicle safety should always be taken into
consideration when planning an installation.
