Installing The Transceiver - Kenwood TK-780 Instruction Manual

INSTALLING THE TRANSCEIVER

FOR PASSENGER SAFETY, INSTALL THE TRANSCEIVER SECURELY, USING THE SUPPLIED
MOUNTING BRACKET, SO THE TRANSCEIVER WILL NOT BREAK LOOSE IN THE EVENT OF A
COLLISION.
1 Mark the position of the holes in the dash by using the mounting bracket as a
template. Drill the holes, then attach the mounting bracket using the supplied
5 x 16 mm screws.
• Be sure to mount the transceiver in a location where the controls are within easy
reach of the user, and where there is sufficient space at the rear of the transceiver
for cable connections.
2 Connect the antenna and the supplied power cable to the transceiver.
3 Slide the transceiver into the mounting bracket and secure it using the
supplied hex-headed screws.
4 Mount the microphone hanger, using the supplied 4 x 16 mm screws, in a
location where it will be within easy reach of the user.
• The microphone and microphone cable should be mounted in a place where they
will not interfere with the safe operation of the vehicle.
TK-980 only: Connect one plug of the microphone cable to the jack on the base
of the microphone, and the other plug to the microphone jack on the front
panel of the transceiver. Place the microphone on the hanger.
