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 AND/OR IMPRISONMENT.
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 either touching the antenna or standing within
two to three feet of it, to avoid the possibility of radio frequency burns or related physical injury.
◆ DYNAMITE BLASTING CAPS
Operating the transceiver within 500 feet of dynamite blasting caps may cause them to explode.
Turn OFF your transceiver when in an area where blasting is in progress, or where “TURN OFF
TWO-WAY RADIO” signs have been posted. If you are transporting blasting caps in your vehicle,
make sure they are carried in a closed metal box with a padded interior. Do not transmit while
the caps are being placed into or removed from the container.

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.
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:
•
6 mm (1/4 inch) or larger electric drill.
•
4.2 mm (5/32 inch) drill bit for the 5 x 16 mm self-tapping screws, and 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.
