GENERAL
3. PRE-INSTALLATION CHECKOUT 3-1. Introduction
Each radio is adjusted and tested before shipment. However, it is recommended that receiver and transmitter operation be checked for proper operation before installation.

5. INSTALLATION PLANNING � CONTROL STATIONS 5-1. Antenna system
Control station. The antenna system selection depends on many factors and is beyond the scope of this manual. Your KENWOOD dealer can help you select an antenna system that will best serve your particular needs.

3-2. Testing
The radio should be tested complete with all cabling and accessories as they will be connected in the final installation. Transmitter frequency, deviation, and power output should be checked, as should receiver sensitivity, squelch operation, and audio output. Signalling equipment operation should be verified.

5-2. Radio location
Select a convenient location for your control station radio which is as close as practical to the antenna cable entry point. Secondly, use your system�s power supply (which supplies the voltage and current required for your system). Make sure sufficient air can flow around the radio and power supply to allow adequate cooling.

4. PLANNING THE INSTALLATION 4-1. General
Inspect the vehicle and determine how and where the radio antenna and accessories will be mounted. Plan cable runs for protection against pinching or crushing wiring, and radio installation to prevent overheating.

SERVICE
This radio is designed for easy servicing. Refer to the schematic diagrams, printed circuit board views, and alignment procedures contained in this manual.

4-2. Antenna
The favored location for an antenna is in the center of a large, flat conductive area, usually at the roof center. The trunk lid is preferred, bond the trunk lid and vehicle chassis using ground straps to ensure the lid is at chassis ground.

Note
When you modify your radio as described in system setup, take the following precaution. The rating of pin 7 (SB) of the accessory connector cable (KCT-19) on the rear of the radio is 13.6V (1A). Insert a 1A fuse if you use the SB pin for external equipment.

4-3. Radio
The universal mount bracket allows the radio to be mounted in a variety of ways. Be sure the mounting surface is adequate to support the radio�s weight. Allow sufficient space around the radio for air cooling. Position the radio close enough to the vehicle operator to permit easy access to the controls when driving.

4-4. DC Power and wiring
1. This radio may be installed in negative ground electrical systems only. Reverse polarity will cause the cable fuse to blow. Check the vehicle ground polarity before installation to prevent wasted time and effort. 2. Connect the positive power lead directly to the vehicle battery positive terminal. Connecting the Positive lead to any other positive voltage source in the vehicle is not recommended. 3. Connect the ground lead directly to the battery negative terminal. 4. The cable provided with the radio is sufficient to handle the maximum radio current demand. If the cable must be extended, be sure the additional wire is sufficient for the current to be carried and length of the added lead.

If you do not intend to use the 3.5-mm jack for the external speaker, fit the supplied speaker-jack cap (B09-0235-05) to stop dust and sand getting in.
