EQUIPMENT INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION
CONNECTING AN EXTERNAL POWER SOURCE
You can connect the transceiver to a regulated power
supply via an optional PG-2W cable, or to the cigarette
lighter socket in your vehicle via an optional PG-3J
cable.
Note:
If input voltage exceeds approximately 18 V, warning beeps sound
and “DC ERR” appears on the display.
■
Using a Regulated Power Supply
Note:
◆
Switch OFF the transceiver and power supply before making any
connections.
◆
Only use the power supplies recommended by your authorized
KENWOOD
dealer. The supply voltage must be between 6 V
and 16 V to prevent damaging the transceiver.

Connect the barrel plug on the DC cable to the DC
IN
jack on the side of the transceiver.

in your vehicle using the optional PG-3J Cigarette
Lighter cable.
