MOUNTING – Control Head
Select a mounting location in an area such as the dash or overhead console. Choose a
mounting location convenient to the operator and away from any air bag deployment areas.
Inspect behind mounting area for clearance. Allow 1-3/4” of depth to accommodate the
control head and cable(s). Consider wire routing and access to connections, as well as
microphone bracket placement.
Use template (back page) for marking hole and cutout locations. Connect control head cable
to back of unit and route leads through cutout. Make all electrical connections (See
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS – Control Head), and then use #6 screws for mounting the
control head (not supplied).
MOUNTING - Microphone Extension Harness (“FX” model only)
Select a mounting location for the
microphone connector, verifying adequate
cable length. Allow 1-3/4" clearance
behind connector to prevent sharp bends
in the harness. Drill or punch a 5/8"
diameter hole for mounting. Remove
mounting nut and washer from connector.
Insert the connector into the hole and
secure it using a 3/4" socket to tighten the
nut. Connect harness to the control head
as shown prior to final installation of head.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS – Control Head
