NOTE Install this product in a vehicle in accordance with the vehicle manufacturer’s guidelines and the instructions detailed in this manual. Use only the Motorola parts specified in this manual. Check the required mounting locations. It might be necessary to penetrate the bulkhead to reach the battery. Before drilling commences, ensure cable clearance on the opposite side of the bulkhead and do not install the vehicle’s Electronic Control Modules (ECM’s) on the opposite side of the bulkhead. Protect the cable where it passes through the bulkhead by using a grommet or similar protective measures. CAUTION WARNING! Installing the VSM at the end of the vehicle above the exhaust pipe may cause the VSM to overheat. VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AIR BAGS An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including communications equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If the communication equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, this could cause serious injury. If necessary, contact the vehicle manufacturer for air bag information specific to the vehicle. WARNING! Verify that none of the vehicle’s systems are affected by use of the unit, e.g. cruise control, ABS breaking, traction control, engine management, direction indicators, lights, etc. WARNING! Use existing openings through the bulkhead to avoid drilling. If drilling is a must, verify not to damage the Vehicle Electronic Control Modules (ECM’s), fuel pipes, brake pipes, and/or cable looms. WARNING! For vehicles equipped with electronic braking systems, see “ANTI-SKID BRAKING PRECAUTIONS”, Motorola publication 68P81109E34. It is mandatory that modems installed in vehicles fuelled by liquefied petroleum gas conform to the National Fire Protection Association standard NFPA 58, which applies to vehicles with a liquid propane (LP) gas container in the trunk or other sealed off space within the interior of the vehicle. The NFPA 58 requires the following: (1) The space in which the LP gas container and its fittings are located must be isolated by a seal from the space containing modem equipment. (2) Removable (outside) filling connections shall be used. (3) The container space shall be vented to the outside.
