Autonet In-Car Router - Manual (Page 3)

3 2
The In-Car Router is typically mounted in
the following locations.
• On the inside rear side panel in an SUV
or Van
• Under the rear deck lid in a sedan
• In the trunk of the vehicle
• The In-Car Router should be mounted in
a location that gives the antennas the
fewest obstructions to the outside world
as possible.
• The In-Car Router should be mounted
so that the blue LED and the serial number
on the top of the unit are visible. The user
will need access to these when calling the
Autonet Mobile Customer Service Center.
Do NOT install the In-Car Router in the
following locations:
• In a location that interferes with driving
• In a location that gets wet
• In a dusty location
• In a place that gets hot
• In a place that gets direct sunlight
• In a location that gets hit by hot air
• Within 20 cm of any passenger
• Do NOT install the In-Car Router under
the carpet. Otherwise heat build-up occurs
and the unit may be damaged.
• Install the In-Car Router in a location
which allows heat to easily dissipate. Once
installed, do not place any object on top of
the In-Car Router.
• The surface area of the In-Car Router
may become hot during use. Install the In-
Car Router in a place where people, resins,
and other substances that are sensitive to
heat will not come into contact with it.
• When making a hole in a side panel,
under a seat, in the trunk, in the rear deck
or somewhere else in the vehicle, check
that there is nothing hazardous on the op-
posite side such as a gas tank, brake pipe,
battery, or wiring harness, and be careful
not to cause scratches or other damage.
• Do NOT install near the dashboard, rear
tray, or air bag safety parts.
• Installation into the vehicle should se-
curely fasten the unit to a place in which it
will not obstruct driving. If the unit comes
off due to a shock and hits a person or
safety part, it may cause injury or an acci-
dent.
• After installing the unit, check to make
sure that electrical equipment such as the
brake lamps, turn signal lamps and wind-
shield wipers operate normally.
Mounting the In-Car Router
1. Using the self tapping screws attach the
unit to the vehicle.
2. Do NOT over tighten the screws.
3. Ensure that the unit is securely fastened
and that it cannot be dislodged.
Electrical wiring
1. Remove the ignition key and disconnect
the negative terminal of the battery.
2. Electrical wire must be routed to the
power source in a manner that prevents the
wire from being damaged or nicked in any
way. It should also be ensured that the wire
is not exposed in a manner that may allow it
to become snagged or entangled in any way.
3. Connect the power wire (Red wire) to a
circuit that only provides power when the
ignition is turned on.

Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals
Autonet Mobile is a low power radio trans-
mitter and receiver. When it is turned on, it
sends out and receives RF signals. Autonet
Mobile complies with FCC guidelines re-
specting safe levels of RF exposure for han-
dled wireless devices, which in turn are
consistent with the following safety standards
previously set by certain standards bodies: ·
• ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1999, IEEE Standard for
Safety Levels with Respect to Human Ex-
posure to Radio Frequency Electromag-
netic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz;
• National Counsel on Radiation Protec-
tion and Measurements (NCRP) Report
86, - 1986, Biological Effects and Exposure
criterion for Radio Frequency Electromag-
netic Fields; and-
• International Commission on Non-Ion-
ising Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1988,
Guidelines for limiting exposure to time-
varying electric, magnetic, and electro-
magnetic fields (up to 300 GHz).
To maintain compliance with FCC ex-
posure guidelines, use only accessories
supplied or approved by Autonet Mo-
bile, Inc
FCC Compliance Statement
This equipment has been tested and found
to comply with the limits for a Class A dig-
ital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to pro-
vide reasonable protection against harmful
interference when the equipment is oper-
ated in a commercial environment. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radi-
ate radio frequency energy and, if not in-
stalled and used in accordance with the
instruction manual, may cause harmful in-
terference to radio communications. Op-
eration of this equipment in a residential
area is likely to cause harmful interfer-
ence in which case the user will be re-
quired to correct the interference at his
own expense.
Specific Absorption Rate Data
Autonet Mobile meets U.S. government
requirements for exposure to radio waves.
Autonet Mobile is a radio transmitter and
receiver. It is designed and manufactured
not to exceed the emission limits for ex-
posure to RF energy set by the FCC.
These limits are part of comprehensive
guidelines and establish permitted levels of
exposure to RF energy for the general
population. These guidelines are based on
standards that were developed by inde-
pendent scientific organizations through
periodic and thorough evaluation of scien-
tific studies. The standards include a sub-
stantial safety margin designed to assure
the safety of all persons, regardless of age
and health.
Changes or modifications not expressly ap-
proved by the party responsible for com-
pliance could void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment.
