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/her 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 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.

ADVANCED OPERATIONS
TIME-OUT TIMER (TOT)
The purpose of the Time-out Timer is to prevent any caller from using a channel
for an extended period of time. If you continuously transmit for a period of time
that exceeds the programmed time, the transceiver will stop transmitting and an
alert tone will sound. To stop the tone, release the PTT switch.
Your dealer can program a warning function to alert you before the TOT expires.
Continuously transmitting for the time specified by your dealer will cause the
warning tone to sound.
BUSY CHANNEL LOCKOUT (BCL)
The Busy Channel Lockout feature is activated or deactivated by your dealer.
When activated, BCL prevents you from interfering with other parties who may be
using the same channel that you selected. Pressing the PTT switch while the
channel is in use will cause your transceiver to emit an alert tone and
transmission will be inhibited (you cannot transmit). Release the PTT switch to
stop the tone and return to receive mode.
TALK AROUND
You may occasionally experience an interruption in service (due to a power
failure, etc.). During such an occurrence, you can continue communication by
using the Talk Around feature, if it has been programmed by your dealer.
Talk Around allows you to communicate directly with other transceivers, without
the use of a repeater. However, if the station you want to contact is too far away,
or there are geographical obstacles in the way, you may not be able to contact
the station.
Toggle Talk Around ON and OFF by pressing the key programmed as Talk Around.
• The indicator corresponding to the Talk Around key lights while the Talk Around function is ON.
• When using Talk Around, the “receive” frequency is used for both transmission and
reception, and the QT/DQT “decode” signalling is used for both encoding and decoding.
MONITOR
Press the key programmed as Monitor to turn the transceiver signalling OFF.
While signalling is OFF, you can hear all signals received on your current
channel. With signalling ON, you can hear only signals that match the signalling
programmed in your transceiver. Press the Monitor key again to return to
normal operation.
Press and hold the key programmed as Monitor for 2 seconds to listen to weak
signals that you cannot hear during normal operation, and to adjust the volume
when no signals are present on your selected channel. Press the Monitor key
again to return to normal operation.
