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
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.
