Welcome to the world of the new generation of CB radios. The new
PRESIDENT range gives you access to top performance CB equipment.
With the use of up-to-date technology, which guarantees unprece-
dented quality, your PRESIDENT MC KINLEY is a new step in personal
communication and is the surest choice for the most demanding of
professional CB radio users. To ensure that you make the most of all
its capacities, we advise you to read carefully this manual before
installing and using your PRESIDENT MC KINLEY.
A) INSTALLATION
1) WHERE AND HOW TO MOUNT YOUR MOBILE CB RADIO
a)
You should choose the most appropriate setting from a simple
and practical point of view.
b)
Your CB radio should not interfere with the driver or the passengers.
c)
Remember to provide for the passing and protection of different
wires (e.g. power, antenna, accessory cabling) so that they do
not interfere in any way with the driving of the vehicle.
d)
To install your equipment, use the cradle (
1
) and the self-tapping
screws (
2
) provided (drilling diameter 3.2 mm). Take care not to
damage the vehicle’s electrical system while drilling the dash
board.
e)
Do not forget to insert the rubber joints (
3
) between the CB and
its support as these have a shock-absorbing effect which permits
gentle orientation and tightening of the set.
f)
Choose where to place the microphone support and remember
that the microphone cord must stretch to the driver without inter-
fering with the controls of the vehicle.

WARNING:
If you imbed your radio, please ensure that no cable
is in direct contact with the chassis.
-
N.B. :
As the transceiver has a frontal microphone socket, it can
be set into the dash board. In addition to the loudspeaker on the
front, it is possible to add an external speaker for better listening of
communications (connector EXT.SP. situated on the back panel:
C
). Ask your dealer for advice on mounting your CB radio.
2) ANTENNA INSTALLATION
a)
Choosing your antenna
- For CB radios, the longer the antenna, the better its results. Your
dealer will be able to help you with your choice of antenna.
b)
Mobile antenna
- Must be fixed to the vehicle where there is a maximum of metallic
surface (ground plane), away from windscreen mountings.
