Caution: Be sure to avoid obstruc-
tions behind the mounting surface.
Follow these steps to mount the scan-
ner in your vehicle.
1. Choose a mounting location, then
use the supplied mounting bracket
as a template to mark the posi-
tions for the mounting screw
holes.
2. In the marked positions, drill holes
slightly smaller than the supplied
screws.
3. Attach the mounting bracket to the
mounting location using the sup-
plied screws and lock washers.
4. Attach a rubber washer to both of
the mounting bracket’s holes.
5. Attach the scanner to the mount-
ing bracket using the supplied
mounting knobs.
6. Connect the antenna’s cable to
the
ANT
jack on the back of the
scanner.
Note: If the antenna cable’s connector
does not fit in the
ANT
jack, you might
also need a Motorola-to-BNC antenna
plug adapter (available at your local
RadioShack store).
POWERING THE
SCANNER
You can power your scanner using ei-
ther the supplied DC power cord or
from your vehicle’s cigarette lighter
socket using an optional DC cigarette
lighter power cable.
Cautions:
You must use a power
source that supplies 12V
DC and delivers at least
500 mA. Its center tip must be set
to positive and its plug must fit the
scanner's
DC 13.8V
jack. The sup-
plied DC power cord meets these
specifications. Using a power cord
that does not meet these specifi-
cations could damage the scanner
or the adapter.
