3. To avoid problems caused by corrosion and other imperfections, use a
dedicated ground wire instead of direct attachment to chassis ground.
4. To minimize noise interference, implementation of isolation or filters
among the router and other electrical devices is recommended.
5. Ensure that your K530 is securely mounted on the vehicle. In addition
to electrical requirements, also consider vibration and temperature
factors when choosing the optimal location for mounting your K530. If
vibration problem is noticeable, anti-vibration rubber grommets may
be used to reduce shock on your K530. Also avoid mounting your
K530 near a spot subject to extreme heat, such as a poorly ventilated
spot that is near the engine or is prone to direct sunlight.
