Remote Mount with Trunnion

Before installing any electrical equipment, check the vehicle manufacturer user
!
manual.
The installation of this device should be completed by an authorized servicer or
C a u t i o n
installer.
Before making any holes in the trunk for radio mounting, check the vehicle
manufacturer's user manual for restrictions such as due to the gas tank location.
For a remote mount installation, the transceiver may be mounted anywhere in the vehicle, provided
that the installation location is safe, follows the cautions mentioned at the beginning of this section,
and is accessible for servicing/maintenance as well as cabling. A typical mounting location
recommended by Motorola Solutions is in the vehicle trunk. For mid power, the trunnion provided
may still be used to mount the transceiver, and the mounting process is the same as for the dash
mount installation
The followings are the remote installation procedure for high power:
1. Select the location to mount your radio on the transmission hump ( see) or under the dash (see)
NOTE: When mounting the trunnion on the transmission hump ensure that the transmission housing
is not affected. Plan your installation ensuring enough room for the Accessory connector and
cable in the back of the radio.
