Engine Noise Suppression
Interference from the impulse noise generated by the electrical systems of engines is sometimes a problem with radios. The OCEANUS has been designed to be essentially impervious to ignition impulse noise and alternator noise. However, in some installations it may be necessary to take measures to further reduce the effect of noise interference. All 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 impulse noise interference, it may be necessary to install a noise suppression kit. Contact your Uniden Dealer for more information.
