NOTICES TO THE USER
◆
GOVERNMENT LAW PROHIBITS THE OPERATION OF UNLICENSED RADIO
TRANSMITTERS WITHIN THE TERRITORIES UNDER GOVERNMENT CONTROL.
◆
◆
ILLEGAL OPERATION IS PUNISHABLE BY FINE OR IMPRISONMENT OR BOTH.
REFER SERVICE TO QUALIFIED TECHNICIANS ONLY.
SAFETY: It is important that the operator is aware of, and understands, hazards
common to the operation of any transceiver.
WARNING!
◆ EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES (GASES, DUST, FUMES, etc.)
Turn OFF your transceiver while taking on fuel or while parked in a gasoline service station. Do
not carry spare fuel containers in the trunk of your vehicle if your transceiver is mounted in the
trunk area.
◆ INJURY FROM RADIO FREQUENCY TRANSMISSIONS
Do not operate your transceiver when somebody is within two to three feet of the antenna, to
avoid the possibility of radio frequency burns or related physical injury.
◆ DYNAMITE BLASTING CAPS
Turn OFF your transceiver when in an area where blasting is in progress, or where “TURN OFF
TWO-WAY RADIO” signs have been posted. Operating the transceiver within 150 meters
(500 feet) of dynamite blasting caps may cause them to explode. If you are carrying blasting
caps in your vehicle, make sure they are enclosed in a metal box with a padded interior. Do not
transmit while the caps are being placed into or are being removed from the container.
Note: This instruction manual covers only the basic functions of the transceiver. Consult your dealer
for more detailed information.
One or more of the following statements may be applicable:
FCC WARNING
This equipment generates or uses radio frequency energy. Changes or modifications to this
equipment may cause harmful interference unless the modifications are expressly approved in the
instruction manual. The user could lose the authority to operate this equipment if an unauthorized
change or modification is made.
INFORMATION TO THE DIGITAL DEVICE USER REQUIRED BY THE FCC
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can
generate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that the
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

PREPARATION
◆ VARIOUS ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT IN YOUR VEHICLE MAY MALFUNCTION IF THEY ARE
NOT PROPERLY PROTECTED FROM THE RADIO FREQUENCY ENERGY WHICH IS
PRESENT WHILE TRANSMITTING. ELECTRONIC FUEL INJECTION, ANTI-SKID BRAKING,
AND CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEMS ARE TYPICAL EXAMPLES OF EQUIPMENT THAT MAY
MALFUNCTION. IF YOUR VEHICLE CONTAINS SUCH EQUIPMENT, CONSULT THE
DEALER FOR THE MAKE OF VEHICLE AND ENLIST HIS AID IN DETERMINING IF THEY
WILL PERFORM NORMALLY WHILE TRANSMITTING.
◆ ALTHOUGH THE REMOTE PANELS ARE WATER RESISTANT, THE MAIN TRANSCEIVER
BODY IS NOT. MOUNT IT IN A PLACE WHERE IT WILL NOT GET WET.
Note: The following preparation instructions are for use by your KENWOOD dealer, an authorized
KENWOOD service facility, or the factory.
■ Tools Required
Note: Before installing the transceiver, always check how far the mounting screws will extend below
the mounting surface. When drilling mounting holes, be careful not to damage vehicle wiring or
parts.
The following tools are required for installing the transceiver:
• A 6 mm (1/4 inch) or larger electric drill.
• A 4.2 mm (5/32 inch) drill bit for the 5 x 16 mm self-tapping screws, and a 3.2 mm
(1/8 inch) drill bit for the 4 x 16 mm self-tapping screws.
• Circle cutters.
■ Power Cable Connection
THE TRANSCEIVER OPERATES IN 12 V NEGATIVE GROUND SYSTEMS ONLY! CHECK
THE BATTERY POLARITY AND VOLTAGE OF THE VEHICLE BEFORE INSTALLING THE
TRANSCEIVER.
1 Check for an existing hole, conveniently located in the firewall, where the
power cable can be passed through.
• If no hole exists, use a circle cutter to drill the firewall, then install a rubber
grommet.
2 Run the two power cable leads through the firewall and into the engine
compartment, from the passenger compartment.
3 Connect the red lead to the positive (+) battery terminal and the black lead
to the negative (–) battery terminal.
• Locate the fuse as close to the battery as possible.
4 Coil and secure the surplus cable with a retaining band.
• Be sure to leave enough slack in the cables so the transceiver can be removed
for servicing while keeping the power applied.
■ Installing the Transceiver
FOR PASSENGER SAFETY, INSTALL THE TRANSCEIVER SECURELY, USING THE
SUPPLIED MOUNTING BRACKET, SO THE TRANSCEIVER WILL NOT BREAK LOOSE IN
THE EVENT OF A COLLISION.
1 Mark the position of the holes in the dash by using the mounting bracket
as a template. Drill the holes, then attach the mounting bracket using the
supplied 5 x 16 mm screws.
• Be sure to mount the transceiver in a location where the controls will be within
easy reach of the user and where there is sufficient space at the rear of the
transceiver for cable connections.
2 Connect the antenna and the supplied power cable to the transceiver.
3 Slide the transceiver into the mounting bracket and secure it using the
supplied hex-headed screws.
4 Mount the microphone hanger, using the supplied 4 x 16 mm screws, in a
location where it will be within easy reach of the user.
• The microphone should be mounted in a place where it will not interfere with
the safe operation of the vehicle.
5 Connect the microphone cable to the jack on the front panel of the
transceiver. Place the microphone on the hanger.

AUXILIARY FUNCTIONS
The following functions can be set up by your dealer.
■ Time-out Timer (TOT)
The TOT is used to automatically inhibit transmission after a specified time
elapses. If the PTT switch is held down for longer than the programmed time,
the transceiver will stop transmitting and a warning tone will sound. To stop
the warning tone, release the PTT switch.
■ Busy Channel Lockout (BCL)
BCL prevents you from interfering with other stations that may be using the
same channel as you. When you press the PTT switch while the channel is in
use, a warning tone sounds and the transceiver does not transmit. To stop
the warning tone, release the PTT switch.
If BCL override has been enabled, you can press the PTT switch again within
0.5 seconds to cancel BCL. The transceiver will transmit.
■ 2-Tone/ DTMF Signaling
2-Tone/ DTMF signaling will only open the squelch when the proper code is
received. When the transceiver receives a correct code, the CALL icon
flashes.
If transpond has been enabled, the transceiver automatically sends an
acknowledgement signal after receiving the 2-Tone/ DTMF signal.
If alert tone has been enabled, an alert tone sounds after receiving the
2-Tone/ DTMF signal.
■ Roll Over/ Dead End
If roll over is enabled and you are pressing the Channel Up and Channel
Down keys, when you reach the maximum or minimum number, the number
will roll over to the minimum or maximum number. For example, when the
pressing the Channel Up key, the channel number increases. When it
reaches its maximum value, it rolls over to its minimum value and then starts
to increase again.
If dead end is selected, when you reach the maximum or minimum value, the
value will not change. For example, when when the pressing the Channel
Up key, the channel number increases. When it reaches its maximum value,
it stops. You must then press the Channel Down key to change the value.
13
■ Dead Beat Disable (DBD)
After receiving a DBD code, the transceiver will automatically send an
acknowledgement signal. Transmission is disabled.
When the transceiver receives a DBD reset code, the transceiver will
automatically send an acknowledgement signal. Transmission is enabled.
■ Timed Power OFF
This function requires an ignition-sense which must be connected to the 15
pin connector on the rear panel of the transceiver. When you turn the ignition
of your vehicle OFF, the timer starts. After the pre-selected time expires, the
transceiver will turn OFF. The timer resets when the vehicle ignition is turned
ON, then OFF.
