Before beginning the installation process, determine the best locations for the mounting of the
Mounting Bracket, Handset Cradle, Visor Microphone, Speaker and Junction Box.
Consider the following guideline when planning the installation:

* DO follow and ‐ connections.
* DO crimp connectors securely.
* DO NOT attach components to any part of the vehicle that is not rigid or is subject to excessive
vibration.
* DO NOT install components in areas where rain or snow can easily get into them, such as next to a
vehicle window, which may be left open.
* DO NOT dress cables over sharp edges that could cause wear or tearing of cable insulation.
* DO NOT install components in locations where they might interfere with the vehicle operator or
operating controls.
* DO NOT install the Hands‐free Cradle where it will be difficult for the operator to reach.
! WARNING
VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AIR BAGS
An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including communications equipment, in
the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If the communication equipment is
improperly installed and the air bag inflates, this could cause serious injury.
It is recommended that the installation of the vehicle communication equipment be performed by a
professional installer/technician trained in the requirements for such installations. An air bag's size,
shape and deployment area can vary by vehicle make, model, and front compartment configuration
(for example, bench seat vs. bucket seats). Contact the vehicle manufacturer's corporate
headquarters, if necessary, for specific air bag information for the vehicle make, model, and front
compartment configuration involved in your communication equipment installation.
Speaker Installation Detail Location
1. Mount the Speaker beneath the dashboard on the passenger's side of the vehicle, out of the way of
the passenger, or some other convenient location.
2. Do not mount the Speaker on the dashboard or the rear window shelf.
3. The Speaker should be located more than four feet from the Car Kit Cradle.
