APPENDIX
Installing the Transceiver in a Vehicle (Mobile Only)
Connecting the DC Power Cable
•
The transceiver operates in 12 V negative ground systems only. Check the battery polarity and voltage of the vehicle before
installing the transceiver.
•
Use only a Kenwood optional DC power cable.
•
Do not cut and/or remove the fuse holder on the DC power cable.
1
Check for an existing hole, conveniently located in the firewall, where a power cable can be passed
through.
If no hole exists, use a circle cutter to drill the firewall, then install a rubber grommet.
2
Run the two power cables leads through the firewall and into the engine compartment, from the
passenger compartment.
3
Connect the red lead to the positive (+) battery terminal and the black lead to the negative (> battery
terminal.
Locate the fuse as close to the battery as possible.
4
Coil and secure the surplus cable with a retaining band.
Be sure to leave enough slack in the cables so the transceiver can be removed for servicing while keeping the power applied.
