INSTALLATION

Safety and convenience are the primary consideration for mounting any piece
of mobile equipment. All controls must be readily available to the operator
without interfering with the movements necessary for safe operation of the
vehicle. Set the proper position in the car to install the transceiver using the
supplied supporting bracket or eventually the slide bracket. Tighten the retai-
ning screws. The fixing bracket must be close to metallic parts.

POWER SUPPLY

Be sure the transceiver is off. In the direct-voltage power supply, it is very
important to observe the polarity even if the unit is protected against the
accidental inversion:
Red = positive pole (+)
Black = negative pole (-)
The same colors are present on the battery and in the fuse box of the car.
Correctly connect the cable terminal to the battery.
ATTENTION: To obtain best performances we recommend to install the radio in
a place with enough air circulation.

INSTALLING AN ANTENNA

1. Place the antenna as high as possible.
2. The longer is the antenna, the better will be the performance.
3. If possible, mount the antenna in the center of whatever surface you cho-
ose.
4. Keep antenna cable away from noise sources, such as the ignition switch,
gauges, etc.
5. Make sure you have a solid metal-to-metal ground connection.
6. Prevent cable damage during antenna installation.
WARNING: To avoid damage, never operate your CB radio without connec-
ting a proper antenna. A periodical control of the cable and of the S.W.R. is
recommended.
