OPERATIONAL CAUTIONS
EFFICIENT SYSTEM OPERATION
• All equipment must be properly grounded according to
Motorola Solutions installation instructions for safe
operation.
• All equipment should be serviced only by an authorized
technician.
INSTALLING THE VEHICLE CHARGER
Mounting hardware supplied includes a trunnion bracket for
mounting the unit below the vehicle dashboard, on the floor,
or on the wall, and a cable for connection to the electrical
system of the vehicle. The bracket enables the charger to be
pivoted to a position that offers the best security to the
portable radio during rough driving conditions.
The vehicle charger is designed for 12 V or 24
V, negative ground system.
1. Plan the location for mounting the charger. Identify the
routing paths for the cable and verify that the cable
length is adequate. Also check the mounting
penetrations required. On most vehicles, it is necessary
to penetrate the firewall to reach the battery. Check the
opposite side of the firewall for cable clearance before
drilling holes. Protect the cable where it passes through
the firewall by use of appropriate rubber grommets (not
supplied) or other protective measures.
Survey the firewall for existing holes occupied by vehicle wire
harnesses. Often there is an opportunity to route other cables
6. Rotate the unit to the preplanned mounting angle and
tighten the two threaded knobs holding the charger to
the bracket.
7. Referring to Table 1 on page 1 and Figure 2, connect
the red (A+) wire (with the inline fuse) of the supplied
cable to either an unswitched terminal on the fuse box
of the vehicle or directly to the positive (+) terminal of
the battery of the vehicle. Always position the fuse as
close to the voltage source as possible.

11. Recheck all wiring connections, cable routing, and all physical aspects of the installation. Carefully insert the connector on the
end of the cable into the mating connector on the back of the charger and test the charger for proper operation. Note that if a
vehicle repeater is installed, verify operation of the repeater before leaving the vicinity of the vehicle.
using the same path. Because of the wide variation in vehicle
design, these instructions may be modified to suit each
particular installation:
• DO consider a mounting location which will allow the unit
to be mounted at a 45-degree up angle. This angle
provides operational convenience and physical security
for the portable radio under rough traveling conditions.
• DO use heat shrink tubing on all splices.
• DO ensure that the cable is not placed under stress, is
not exposed to weather, and is not subjected to damage
due to engine heat.
• DO retain the in-line cable fuse when trimming the cable
to fit. Locate the in-line fuse as close as practical to the
supply voltage connection.
• DO check the opposite sides of all mounting surfaces
before drilling, to insure that there are no obstructions,
such as vehicle wiring and fluid lines.
• DO NOT attach the unit to any part of the vehicle that is
not rigid or is subject to excessive vibration.
• DO NOT install the unit in an area where rain or snow can
easily get into it, such as next to a vehicle window which
may be left open.
• DO NOT install the unit in a location where it could
interfere with the operator or operating controls of the
vehicle.
• DO NOT dress the cable over sharp edges that could
cause wear or tearing of cable insulation.
• DO NOT install the unit in a location where it may be
difficult for the operator to reach.
• DO NOT install the unit where it may interfere with the
vehicle safety air bag deployment.
• DO NOT install the unit where the LED indicators and
switch may become physically damaged.

INFORMATION
•All batteries can cause property damage

or bodily injury, or both, such as burns if a
conductive material such as jewelry, keys,
or beaded chains touches exposed
W A R N I N G
terminals. The material may complete an
electrical circuit (short circuit) and become quite hot.
Exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly
when placing it inside a pocket, purse or other con tainer
with metal objects.
• Do not replace or charge batteries in potentially explosive
atmosphere. Contact sparking can occur while installing
or removing batteries and cause an explosion.
• Due to the risk of electrical shock or other physical injury,
never insert your hands into the charger pocket.
PRODUCT SAFETY AND RF EXPOSURE
COMPLIANCE
Before using this product, read the Product
Safety and RF Exposure booklet enclosed with
your radio which contains important operating
instructions for safe usage and RF energy
awareness and control for Compliance with
applicable Standards and Regulations.
2. Using the trunnion bracket as a template, mark the
mounting surface drilling locations. It is recommended
that at least four screws be used, with 1/4 in. being the
preferred fastener diameter.
3. Re-verify that there are no wires, fluid lines, or other
obstructions on the other side of the mounting location,
and drill appropriate sized holes for the mounting screws
to be used.
4. Referring to Figure 1, mount the bracket using
appropriate screws, washers, lock washers, and nuts.

OPERATIONAL WARNINGS
VEHICLES WITH AN AIR BAG
•Do not place a portable radio or install
! !
radio communications equipment in the
area over an air bag or in the air bag
deployment area. Air bags inflate with
W A R N I N G
great force. If a portable radio is placed
in the air bag deployment area and the air bag inflates,
the radio may be propelled with great force and cause
serious injury to occupants of the vehicle.
• Installation of vehicle communication equipment should
be performed by a professional installer/technician
qualified in the requirements for such installations. The
size of an airbag, shape, and deployment area can vary
by vehicle make, model, and front compartment
configuration (for example, bench seat as opposed to
bucket seats).
• Contact the corporate headquarters of the manufacturer
of the vehicle, if necessary, for specific airbag
information for the vehicle make, model, and front
compartment configuration involved in your
communication equipment installation.
BLASTING CAPS AND AREAS
To avoid possible interference with blasting
! !
operations, turn your radio off and remove it
from the charger when you are near electrical
blasting caps, in a blasting area, or in areas
W A R N I N G
posted "Turn off two-way radio." Obey all signs
and instructions.
Figure 1 Installing the Vehicle Charger
5. Insert the unit into the bracket, and install the washer
and threaded knob into the housing, as shown in
Figure 1.
8. There are two methods for Step 8:
• Standard wiring to vehicle Switched A+: Charging
OFF with vehicle OFF
For installations where the radio may be left in the
charger with the ignition of the vehicle switched OFF and
minimal vehicle battery current drain is important, the
standard wiring connection of the yellow wire to vehicle
switched A+ will disable charging. Connect the yellow
(ignition sense) wire (with the inline fuse) to a switched
terminal on the fuse box of the vehicle. It is important not
to connect the yellow wire to the red lead.
• Note: The charger will remain ON for approximately 30
minutes after ignition is turned OFF.
• Optional wiring to vehicle A+: Charging ON with
vehicle OFF
When the radio is left in the charger for charging with the
ignition of the vehicle switched off, the optional wiring
connection of the yellow wire to always live vehicle A+
will keep the charger ON. The charger, in this condition
will not power down and will continue to drain the vehicle
battery.
9. Connect the black (ground) wire to any convenient
vehicle ground. DO NOT connect the black wire directly
to the vehicle battery negative terminal
10. The white wire is for vehicle repeater operation only.
Please refer to installation instructions of the vehicle
repeater for instructions on the connection of this wire.
