A typical direct roof installation, below, requires a hole large enough (approximately 3/4”[2cm])
to pass the AU connector into the vehicle. A perforated (solid with a slit) grommet and silicon
(RTV) sealant should be used where the cable penetrates the vehicle. Silicon (RTV) sealant
should also be used around the bottom of the AU and injected into each screw hole to
weatherproof the vehicle.
Mitsubishi Electronics strongly recommends a maximum AU cable turn radius of two (2) inches
(5 cm) in a horizontal (sideways) and one inch bend in the vertical (up and down) direction. The
typical AU-cable routing is down by the inside bulkhead of the trunk, where the CTU is
installed.
6.2.5 Transceiver
Take time to observe the connector types and their assignments (see section 6.2.6). Some cable
connectors may be capable of being inserted into the wrong connector port. Damage due to
accidental connection of incorrect cables to transceiver ports is not covered by the Mitsubishi
Limited Warranty.
