INSTALLATION

Installation Planning

Planning is the key to fast, easy installation. Before a hole is drilled or a

wire is run, inspect the vehicle and determine how and where you intend

to mount the junction box, phone cradle, speaker, visor microphone,

remote PTT button, remote palm microphone (optional), and speaker

(see Figure 1). Plan wire and cable runs to provide maximum protection

from pinching, crushing and overheating.

Figure 1. Car Kit Interconnection Diagram

A properly installed Car Kit will minimize service calls and equipment

downtime. Refer to the following guidelines when planning the installa-

tion:

• Use the provided hardware for mounting.

• Ensure that the cables are not stretched, and not subjected to heat

from engine or transmission.

• Crimp connectors securely.

• Do not attach components to any part of the vehicle that is not rigid

or is subject to excessive vibration.

• Do not run cables over sharp edges that could cause wear or

chaffing of cable insulation.

• Do not install the components in locations where they might cause

interference to the operation of the vehicle controls.

• If it is necessary to penetrate the firewall, check opposite side for

cable clearance before drilling and use a grommet to protect the

cable where it passes through.

Recommended Tools

The following tools are recommended for proper installation of your Car

Kit.

• Portable Drill

•Hammer

• Center Punch

• Phillips #2 Screwdriver

Junction Box Installation

In most vehicles, the best location for mounting the junction box is just

under the dash, or under the front seat. It must be protected from dirt and

moisture, and must be afforded adequate space for cooling. There must

also be sufficient space to allow for the connection of accessories.

6 CAR KIT OWNER’S MANUAL

DC Power Cable Installation

The Car Kit must be operated only in negative ground electrical systems.

Reverse polarity (positive ground) will trigger protection circuits which

cause the cable fuse to open. Check the ground polarity before you begin

installation to prevent wasted time and effort. Only 12V DC automotive

systems are directly supported. For 24V DC operation, external con-

verter (NNTN4079) is required.

The DC power cable shipped with the Car Kit is long enough for instal-

lation in most vehicles. Begin the power cable installation in the follow-

ing manner.

1. Route the red and black leads of the main power cable to convenient

chassis ground and positive supplyvoltage connection points. If it is

necessary to penetrate the firewall, use an existing opening or, if

necessary, drill a new hole of approximately 9/16 inch or 3.5 cm.

Insert a grommet into the hole to prevent damage to the power

cable. When making connections on the engine side of the firewall,

additional in-line fuse holders (included) should be used at the con-

nection points.

2. Cut the black lead to the desired length.

• If the connection is to be made under the dash or in the vehicle

cabin, connect the black lead directly to the chassis of the vehicle.

• If connection is made in the engine compartment, connect the black

in-line fuse holder between the black lead of the power cable and

the desired chassis connection point.

3. Cut the red lead to the desired length. This lead will be connected

such that it has positive supply voltage at all times, even when the

vehicle is turned off.

• If connection is to be made under the dash or in the vehicle cabin,

connect the red lead to a positive supply voltage point.

• If connection is to be made in the engine compartment or directly to

the battery, connect the red in-line fuse holder between the red lead

of the power cable and the desired positive voltage connection

point.

It is not good practice to connect the black lead to the

negative (-) battery terminal; the Car Kit could be

damaged if there were a malfunction in the vehicle’s

electrical system.

4. Route and connect the green lead to a convenient ignition-switched

supply point in the vehicle.

5. If the vehicle’s audio system supports an external muting feature,

route and connect the orange wire to the audio system. Otherwise,

the orange wire may be left unconnected and cut off or tied out of

the way.

vehicle’s key switch. With the ignition key in the

“accessory-ON” position, the terminal voltage

should measure the vehicle’s battery voltage. With

the switch in the “OFF” position, it should measure

near zero.

NOTE:

The Car Kit supports an “Entertainment Mute” func-

tion when connected to an audio system that pro-

vides for external muting. This function is

compatible with systems that mute the audio output

when the control line is connected to ground.

CAR KIT OWNER’S MANUAL 9

Antenna Installation

The best location for mounting the antenna is the center of a large, flat,

conductive surface. In almost all vehicles, these requirements are best

satisfied by mounting the antenna at the center of the roof. Some vehi-

cles have a large trunk lid that also provides a good antenna location. If

the trunk lid is used, connect grounding straps between the trunk lid and

the vehicles chassis to ensure the trunk lid is adequately grounded.

For best performance, use a low-loss coaxial cable with the highest gain

antenna.

The three Motorola tested and approved antennas that may be used with

this Car Kit are:

1. RAF4136AMM - Magnetic Antenna

2. RRA4914B - Mobile Roof Mount Antenna

3. FAD5524 - Mobile Window Antenna

Use only an approved antenna and referto the installation instructions of

the antenna you have selected.

External Speaker Installation

A common location for mounting the speaker is on the firewall, beneath the

dashboard, on the passenger’s side of the vehicle. Hanger and trunnion

brackets are provided for mounting the speaker.

1. It is recommended that the speaker be located 3ft (1m) from the

visor microphone. Avoid placing the speaker where it faces the

visor microphone.

2. Place the speaker and speaker cable at least 1 foot (30 cm) away

from any part of the portable phone’s antenna.

Antennas with gain exceeding 9db do not comply

with FCC RF exposures and are not allowed for use

with this product
