Selecting a Mounting Location

Autonet Mobile is a low power radio trans- mitter and receiver. When it is turned on, it sends out and receives RF signals. Autonet Mobile complies with FCC guidelines re- specting safe levels of RF exposure for han- dled wireless devices, which in turn are consistent with the following safety standards previously set by certain standards bodies: ·

•ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1999, IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human Ex- posure to Radio Frequency Electromag- netic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz;

•National Counsel on Radiation Protec- tion and Measurements (NCRP) Report 86, - 1986, Biological Effects and Exposure criterion for Radio Frequency Electromag- netic Fields; and-

•International Commission on Non-Ion- ising Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1988, Guidelines for limiting exposure to time- varying electric, magnetic, and electro- magnetic fields (up to 300 GHz).

To maintain compliance with FCC ex- posure guidelines, use only accessories supplied or approved by Autonet Mo- bile, Inc

ital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to pro- vide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is oper- ated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radi- ate radio frequency energy and, if not in- stalled and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful in- terference to radio communications. Op- eration of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interfer- ence in which case the user will be re- quired to correct the interference at his own expense.

Specific Absorption Rate Data

Autonet Mobile meets U.S. government requirements for exposure to radio waves. Autonet Mobile is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for ex- posure to RF energy set by the FCC. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish permitted levels of exposure to RF energy for the general population. These guidelines are based on standards that were developed by inde- pendent scientific organizations through periodic and thorough evaluation of scien- tific studies. The standards include a sub- stantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.

Changes or modifications not expressly ap- proved by the party responsible for com- pliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

The In-Car Router is typically mounted in the following locations.

•On the inside rear side panel in an SUV or Van

•Under the rear deck lid in a sedan

•In the trunk of the vehicle

•The In-Car Router should be mounted in a location that gives the antennas the fewest obstructions to the outside world as possible.

•The In-Car Router should be mounted so that the blue LED and the serial number on the top of the unit are visible. The user will need access to these when calling the Autonet Mobile Customer Service Center.

Do NOT install the In-Car Router in the following locations:

•In a location that interferes with driving

•In a location that gets wet

•In a dusty location

•In a place that gets hot

•In a place that gets direct sunlight

•In a location that gets hit by hot air

•Within 20 cm of any passenger

•Do NOT install the In-Car Router under the carpet. Otherwise heat build-up occurs and the unit may be damaged.

•Install the In-Car Router in a location which allows heat to easily dissipate. Once installed, do not place any object on top of the In-Car Router.

•The surface area of the In-Car Router may become hot during use. Install the In- Car Router in a place where people, resins, and other substances that are sensitive to heat will not come into contact with it.

•When making a hole in a side panel,

under a seat, in the trunk, in the rear deck or somewhere else in the vehicle, check that there is nothing hazardous on the op- posite side such as a gas tank, brake pipe, battery, or wiring harness, and be careful not to cause scratches or other damage.

•Do NOT install near the dashboard, rear tray, or air bag safety parts.

•Installation into the vehicle should se- curely fasten the unit to a place in which it will not obstruct driving. If the unit comes off due to a shock and hits a person or safety part, it may cause injury or an acci- dent.

•After installing the unit, check to make sure that electrical equipment such as the brake lamps, turn signal lamps and wind- shield wipers operate normally.

Mounting the In-Car Router

1.Using the self tapping screws attach the unit to the vehicle.

2.Do NOT over tighten the screws.

3.Ensure that the unit is securely fastened and that it cannot be dislodged.

Electrical wiring

1.Remove the ignition key and disconnect the negative terminal of the battery.

2.Electrical wire must be routed to the power source in a manner that prevents the wire from being damaged or nicked in any way. It should also be ensured that the wire is not exposed in a manner that may allow it to become snagged or entangled in any way.

3.Connect the power wire (Red wire) to a circuit that only provides power when the ignition is turned on.
