FTM-3100R/E Operating Manual
Mobile Installation
The FTM-3100R/E must only be installed in vehicles having a 13.8 Volt negative ground
electrical system. Mount the transceiver where the display, controls, and microphone are
easily accessible, using the supplied mounting bracket.
The transceiver may be installed in almost any location, but should not be positioned
near a heating vent nor anywhere where it might interfere with driving (either visually or
mechanically).
Make sure to provide plenty of space on all sides of the transceiver so that air can flow
freely around the radio’s case. Refer to the diagrams showing proper installation proce-
dures.
