INSTALLATION
Safety and convenience are the primary consideration for mounting any piece of mobile
equipment. All controls must be readily available to the operator without interfering with
the movements necessary for safe operation of the vehicle. Set the proper position in
the car to install the transceiver using the supplied supporting bracket or eventually the
slide bracket. Tighten the retaining screws. The fixing bracket must be close to metallic
parts.
POWER SUPPLY
Be sure the transceiver is off. In the direct-voltage power supply, to observe the polarity
is very important, even if the unit is protected against the accidental inversion:
Red = positive pole (+)
Black = negative pole (-)
The same colors are present on the battery and in the fuse box of the car. Connect
correctly the cable terminal to the battery.
ATTENTION
To obtain best performances we recommend to install the radio in a place with
enough air circulation.
INSTALLING AN ANTENNA
1. Place the antenna as high as possible.
2. The longer is the antenna, the better will be the performance.
3. If possible, mount the antenna in the center of whatever surface you choose.
4. Keep the antenna cable away from noise sources, such as the ignition switch,
gauges,etc.
5. Make sure you have a solid metal-to-metal ground connection.
6. Prevent cable damage during antenna installation.
WARNING. to avoid damage, never operate your CB radio without connecting a
proper antenna. A periodical control of the SWR is recommended.
