2. Installation

2.1

Planning the Installation

2.1.1 Overview

To ensure trouble-free, efficient installation,

start by inspecting the vehicle to determine

the optimum position for G3

tennas as well as the routing of all associated

cabling and wiring.

2.1.2 Location

Often, installations in cars are done in the

trunk, underneath the back window ledge or

on the trunk floor. In vans and small trucks,

it is usually done in the back of the vehicle.

In large vehicles, it is often done in the front

cabin.

Be sure to place the G3 unit in such a way

that:

•

The LEDs can be seen (as an aid in

troubleshooting)

•

Access to the antenna DE-9 connectors

is possible without removing the unit

•

Sufficient air may flow around the unit

to provide adequate cooling

is not fully waterproof, therefore it

should be mounted sufficiently away from

an opened trunk lid or opened tailgate, win-

dows or doors to avoid exposure to rain

and/or snow. It also minimizes the chance

that material can be accidentally thrown on

the unit or of someone bumping against it.

2.1.3 Cable Path

Try to route the cables away from locations

where they would be exposed to heat (ex-

haust pipes, mufflers, tailpipes, etc.), battery

acid, sharp edges, mechanical damage or

where they would be a nuisance to automo-

bile mechanics, the driver or the passengers.

Keep wiring away from automotive com-

puter modules, other electronic modules and

ignition circuits to help prevent interference

between these components and radio equip-

ment.

Try using existing holes in firewall and

trunk wall and the channels above and be-

low or beneath the doors, channels through

156 90000-508

doors and window columns that are conven-

ient to run cables and wires.

Whenever possible, install conduit in which

to run the cables.

2.2

Before starting installation, review all of the

and its an-

following warnings.

2.2.1 RF Radiation warning

Qualified personnel must do all antenna in-

stallations. See paragraph 2.5.2 for recom-

mended antenna positioning.

Transmissions when persons or animals out-

side the vehicle are within two feet of the

antenna may result in radio energy radiation

burns or related injuries.

2.2.2 Interference with vehicular

Certain vehicle electronic devices may be

prone to malfunction due to lack of protec-

tion from radio frequency energy present

when transmitting.

It includes, and is not limited to:

If the installation vehicle contains such

equipment, consult the dealer for the make

of vehicle and enlist his aid in determining if

such electronic circuits will perform nor-

mally when the radio is transmitting.

2.2.3 Secure mounting

For vehicle occupant(s) safety, mount G3

securely so that the unit will not break loose

in case of an accident or violent maneuvers.

2.2.4 Explosive environments

Operation of vehicular radio transmitters in

explosive environments may be hazardous

and conventional safety precautions must

prevail. These include and are not limited to:

Warnings

electronics

Electronic fuel injection systems

Electronic anti-skid braking systems

Electronic cruise control systems

Transmitting while fuelling the vehicle.

Do not carry fuel containers in the same

compartment as G3 .
