Engine noise suppression
Interference from the noise generated by the electrical systems of engines is sometimes a problem with radios. Your radio
has been designed to be essentially impervious to ignition noise and alternator noise. However, in some installations it may
be necessary to take measures to further reduce the effect of noise interference. Your radio’s DC battery wires, antenna lead,
and accessory cables should be routed away from the engine and engine compartment, and from power cabling carrying
high currents. In severe cases of noise interference, it may be necessary to install a noise suppression kit. Contact the dealer
where you purchased the radio for more information.
