2. Microphone Hanger
The microphone hanger may be attached to the side of the transceiver or any other
convenient location. Locate the mounting holes on either side of the transceiver. Use the
provided screws to attach the microphone hanger either vertically or horizontally to the side
of the transceiver.
Or mount the microphone hanger to an other convenient location near your transceiver.
3. Mounting Bracket
When attaching the MAGNUM MULTI mounting bracket to the vehicle, choose a location
that will provide easy access to all front panel controls. When selecting a mounting location,
make sure that there is ample space behind the unit for the cables. Do not pinch, or bend
sharply the power or antenna cables. Do no install this radio in any compartment that
restricts airflow and do not install in a location that interferes with the safe operation of the
vehicle.
4. Electrical Connections
The MAGNUM MULTI is designed to work on a 12-13.8Volt DC negative ground source.
The condition of the vehicle’s electrical system can affect operation. A low battery, worn
generator/alternator or a poor voltage regulator will seriously impair the performance of the
transceiver. Any of the above conditions could result in a high level of receiver noise
generation or a substantial loss of the transmitter’s RF output.
Make sure that all of these components of your vehicle’s electrical system are in good
condition prior to installing the transceiver.
CAUTION: Voltage exceeding 15VDC will damage the radio. Measure voltage at battery
terminals, with vehicle running, prior to installation.
Before making any electrical connections make sure the volume control/on-off is in the
“OFF” position. Connect the positive (+) red wire of the DC power cord to a positive 13.8
Volt source at the vehicle fuse block. If connected to the fuse block it is recommended that
a switched power source is used so that the power to the transceiver is disconnected when
