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.

CAR KIT OWNER’S MANUAL 5

• 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

DC Power Cable Installation Instruction

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

Reverse polarity (positive ground) does not damage the Car Kit, how-

ever, protection circuits cause the cable fuse to open. Check the ground

polarity before you begin installation to prevent wasted time and effort.

Both 12V and 24V electrical systems are supported.

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

tion in most vehicles. Begin the power cable installation in the following

manner.

1. Remove the 5-ampere fuse from the power cable’s red wire before

proceeding.

2. Allow sufficient slack in the power cable’s connector end to reach

the end of Car Kit. (see Figure 1).

3. Set aside the 2 ft. (60 cm) fused section of the main power cable’s

red lead for later use. Route the red and black leads of the main

power cable to convenient chassis ground and ignition line connec-

tion points. If it is necessary to penetrate the firewall, use an existing

opening or, if necessary, drill a 19/32 inch (1.5 cm) hole. Insert a

grommet into the hole to prevent damage to the power cable (see

Figure 2).

6 CAR KIT OWNER’S MANUAL

Figure 2. Power Cable Assembly

4. Cut the black lead to the desired length and connect it to the chassis

of the vehicle.

5. Connect the red lead to an ignition-switched power source as fol-

lows:

a. Cut the long red lead to the desired length and connect (crimp) it

to the plug on the 2 ft. (60 cm) red fused section that was set

aside in step 3.

b. Connect the red lead from the fuse holder to a fused, switched

side of the vehicles ignition circuit.

Note: An ignition switched accessory terminal can be verified by

measuring the terminal while operating the vehicle’s key switch.

With the ignition key switch in the accessory-ON position, the ter-

minal voltage should measure the vehicle’s battery voltage. With the

switch in the OFF position, it should measure near zero.

6. Dress the cable in the engine compartment so that it does not

obstruct any vehicle controls nor touch any hot or moveable parts of

the engine.

7. Plug the fuse into the in-line fuse holder.

Antenna Installation Instruction

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 refer to the installation instructions of

the antenna you have selected.

Note: Antennas with gain exceeding 9db do not comply with FCC RF

exposures and are not allowed for use with this product.

External Speaker Installation Instruction

The 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.

• It is recommended that the speaker be located 5ft (1.5m) from the

visor microphone. Avoid placing the speaker where it faces the

visor microphone.

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

from any part of the portable phone’s antenna.

The external speaker includes a trunnion and a hanger bracket. This enables the

speaker to be mounted in various ways.
