without professional assistance as the installation requires 
special tools and knowledge.
All installations should take into account any special require-
ments of the customer. However, should the customer require 
an installation that is illegal or unsafe these facts must be 
pointed out to the customer and a policy of non-compliance 
adopted.
Please refer to the phone’s User’s Guide for instructions on the 
phone’s operation, care and maintenance, including important 
safety information.

Wireless HF Unit HFW-1
The HFW-1 is used in a fixed car installation and it offers a 
wireless handsfree function, a fast charging function when a 
phone is connected into it by a charging cable (phone specific, 
not supplied with CARK-112) and a wireless connection to 
external devices.
The HFW-1 unit is attached to the vehicle interior using the 
mounting plate MKU-1. HFW-1 is secured to MKU-1 with a 
screw (included with MKU-1).
Power is supplied to DC socket from the vehicle’s battery via 
the power cable PCU-4.
The HF microphone HFM-8, connects to the MIC socket. And 
the HF speaker HFS-12, connects to the SPEAKER socket.
PHONE socket is for the charging of the phone (charging cable 
phone specific - not included with car kit).
The HFW-1 is always connected to a car battery. To save the 
car battery the HFW-1 goes to a sleep mode. Sleep mode is 
activated if: 1. the car is not running and a phone is not con-
nected by a charging cable and there is no wireless traffic or 2. 
charging of the phone has been stopped.
Installation
After tightening the MKU-1 screws, secure HFW-1 installation 
to the MKU-1 mounting plate with the screw going through 
HFW-1. The Nokia logo lid is placed on the HFW-1 to cover the 
recess.

Do not install the HFW-1 unit in a metal casing (or similar loca-
tion) that can prevent the unit from transmitting radio frequen-
cies. Aim the internal Bluetooth antenna (see picture) towards 
the user (Bluetooth phone).
Mounting Plate MKU-1
MKU-1 is a fixed position mounting plate. It is used to attach 
Wireless HF Unit (HFW-1) to the vehicle.
Remote Control Button CUW-2
The Remote Control Button (CUW-2) allows convenient opera-
tion of the phone. The car installation includes a Remote Con-
trol Button CUW-2, which is connected to the HFW-1 with a 
cable (REMOTE socket). The speaker volume of the HFW-1 
can be controlled with a ring (rotary switch) in the CUW-2. It is 
possible to receive a call or to dial by pressing a send/end push 
button in the CUW-2 (also voice dialing).
To read more about the use of CUW-2, see CARK112 User’s 
Guide.
Installation
The positioning of the Remote Control Button CUW-2 is impor-
tant, to achieve the most comfortable position for the user. The 
location of the CUW-2 should be selected so that the visibility 
of the Remote Control Button is good under all lighting condi-
tions, but not so that the driver’s attention is easily distracted. 
The CUW-2 should be located so that the driver can easily 
reach it. Under no circumstances should the CUW-2 prevent 
the driver from controlling or operating the vehicle in any way 
or observing traffic.

To attach the Remote Control Button:
1. Detach the two grip pads from each other.
2. Peel off the protective sheet (pad with soft fabric) from the 
adhesive side and attach the pad to the desired location in the 
car. Make sure the surface where you attach this pad is dry and 
clean from dirt and dust.
3. Peel off the protective sheet (pad with rugged fabric) from 
the adhesive side and attach the pad to the bottom of the 
Remote Control Button.
4. Press the Remote Control Button against the pad in the car 
until button is firmly in place.
HF Microphone HFM-8
The HF microphone should be installed according to the direc-
tions in the separate microphone installation guide. Ensure the 
microphone is as close to the driver’s mouth as possible, and 
attached to a surface that is mechanically quiet. The micro-
phone should be mounted at least 3 ft./1 m away from the 
handsfree unit speaker to avoid acoustic feedback.
Insert the HFM-8 plug into the MIC socket in HFW-1 and twist 
90° clockwise to lock firmly in place.
HF Speaker HFS-12
Install the HF speaker so that it is at least 3 ft./1 m away from 
the HFM-8 microphone to avoid acoustic feedback. Insert the 
HFS-12 plug into the SPEAKER socket and twist 90° clockwise 
to lock firmly in place. Under no circumstances should the 
HFS-12 prevent the driver from controlling or operating the 
vehicle in any way or observing traffic.

Power Cable PCU-4
The power cable connects the wireless handsfree unit HFW-1 
to the vehicle’s power supply (DC socket).
The red wire must be connected to the + voltage on the vehi-
cle’s power supply via the supplied fused connector. The black 
wire must be attached to a good negative GND connection. 
The blue ignition sense (IGNS) wire is connected to +12 V volt-
age con trolled by the vehicle’s ignition key via the supplied 
fused connector. 
See section "Ignition Sense". 
The yellow wire is used for car radio muting (CRM). The line 
goes down to 0 volts during a call. See section "Car Radio Mut-
ing".
Cables
Ensure cables are routed as far away as possible from the 
vehicle’s electronic systems (refer to WARNINGS)*.  Also, 
ensure that cables are not subjected to undue mechanical 
stress e.g. under seats or against sharp edges.
* To prevent disturbance, cables should be routed as far away 
from the interference source as possible.
Ignition Sense IGNS
The blue wire of the power cable PCU-4 is used for the ignition 
sense feature. The use of ignition sense is recommended to 
prevent accidental draining of the car’s battery and making the 
automatic connection to the phone. The wire is connected via a 
1 A fuse to a 12 volt potential that is controlled by the ignition

key. Do not connect it directly to the high voltage sections of 
the ignition circuit.
Car Radio Muting CRM
The car kit offers a feature that can mute the car radio automat-
ically during a conversation. The car radio muting feature is 
based on a grounded line, so it means that in standby, the yel-
low wire (CRM) is not grounded and car radio works normally, 
but during a call, line is grounded and car radio is muted.
Some radios have separate supplies for amplifiers and motors, 
and another for memory backup purposes. Very often these 
radios also have a secret code system, which activates itself if 
a break in the memory supply is detected. Be careful when 
installing the relay not to break the memory supply (usually 
marked ACC or +MEM)..
Testing
Once installed, the equipment should be tested to ensure that it 
is operating satisfactorily and that the position of the units does 
not impair on the driver’s ability to control and operate the vehi-
cle in any way.
You can reset the car kit to the original settings, for example, to 
change the default user of the car kit.
To reset the car kit: Detach the microphone cable from HFW-1 
unit for less than 5 seconds. After the car kit has been reset, 
the indicator light of the remote control button is shown for sev-
eral seconds.
Use the phone to make a call when the vehicle is parked with 
the engine running. During the call, switch off the engine. 
Ensure that the phone is operational with the engine running 
and with the engine switched off. 
For operating information refer to the CARK112 User’s Guide 
or User’s Guide supplied with the phone.
