INSTALLATION

Connect the microphone

Align the microphone connector with the jack on the front of the radio. Push the connector in firmly and secure it with the locking screw.

Connect the power

You can connect the radio to any standard 12 volt DC power source, with either a positive or negative ground. If you don’t know whether your power supply uses a positive or negative ground, consult the manual for your power supply or contact the manufacturer.

WARNING! DO NOT connect this equipment to a power supply if you are not absolutely certain of the grounding type!

1)Make sure your power supply is turned off.

2)For power supplies with a NEGATIVE ground, connect the RED lead on the radio to the power supply’s POSITIVE (+) pole, and connect the BLACK lead to the power supply’s NEGATIVE (–) pole or to a neutral ground such as the chassis.

OR

For power supplies with a POSITIVE ground, connect the BLACK lead on the radio to the power supply’s NEGATIVE (–) pole, and connect the RED lead to a neutral ground such as the chassis.

3)Turn on your power supply.

4)Turn the radio’s Volume knob clockwise to power on the radio.

Installing the mounting bracket

When choosing the location for the radio’s mounting bracket, keep the following things in mind:

►►Pick a location that does not block your view, interfere with your vehicle’s controls, or hinder your driving.

►►Make sure the radio and microphone are not in front of an airbag.

►►Pick a solid surface that can support the weight of the bracket and the radio.

►►Make sure there’s enough room. (You may want to put the radio in the bracket when you’re choosing where to install the bracket.)

Once you choose the location, use the included, self-tapping screws to attach the mounting bracket and the microphone bracket to your vehicle (you don’t have to drill holes). Slide the radio into the bracket and use the included knobs to hold it at the preferred angle.
