Welcome to the world of the new generation of CB ra-
dios. The new PRESIDENT range gives you access to top
performance CB equipment. With the use of up-to-date
technology, which guarantees unprecedented quality,
your PRESIDENT MC KINLEY USA 12/24 V is a new step
in personal communication and is the surest choice for
the most demanding of professional CB radio users. To
ensure that you make the most of all its capacities, we
advise you to read carefully this manual before installing
and using your PRESIDENT MC KINLEY USA 12/24 V.
A) INSTALLATION
1) WHERE AND HOW TO MOUNT YOUR MOBILE CB RADIO
a)
You should choose the most appropriate setting from a
simple and practical point of view.
b)
Your CB radio should not interfere with the driver or the
passengers.
c)
Remember to provide for the passing and protection of
different wires (e.g. power, antenna, accessory cabling)
so that they do not interfere in any way with the driving of
the vehicle.
d)
To install your equipment, use the cradle (
1
) and the self-tap-
ping screws (
2
) provided (drilling diameter 3.2 mm). Take
care not to damage the vehicle’s electrical system while
drilling the dash board.
e)
Do not forget to insert the rubber joints (
3
) between the
CB and its support as these have a shock-absorbing effect
which permits gentle orientation and tightening of the set.
f)
Choose where to place the microphone support and
remember that the microphone cord must stretch to the
driver without interfering with the controls of the vehicle.

N.B. :
As the transceiver has a frontal microphone socket, it
can be set into the dash board. In this case, you will need
to add an external loud speaker to improve the sound
quality of communications (connector EXT.SP. situated on
the back panel:
C
). Ask your dealer for advice on mounting
your CB radio.
