6 Installation guide 6.1 Determination of required configuration Before installation of your EGO TALK, please note which features and connection options are provided by your car audio system. It is advantageous when your audio has the following: a muting function, phone input and line-in. You can find out which of these input options your audio system has in the documentation provided. 6.1.1 Vehicle The hands-free system may only be installed in vehicles with a negative grounded, 12 V electrical system.
6.1.5 Add-on speakers / Car audio telephone connection The car’s loudspeakers are transferred to the system is by means of switch contacts. These are designed for a peak power handling of 35 W (Sinus). Loudspeaker power handling exceeding 35 W leads to premature wear on the switching contacts. For higher outputs, use the telephone connection of the car audio or a 5 W / 4-Ohm satellite speaker. This port is only designed for voice reproduction. 6.1.
during installation, ensure that the antenna faces into the passenger cell (see Fig. 02). Vertical mounting is ideal. Metallic screening between the front panel and the passenger cell, such as metal or metallised plastic panels, are unsuitable and may interfere with the Bluetooth® connection. Locations behind the dashboard or in a metallined glove compartment are also unsuitable. A covering in plastic, fabric or wood presents no problems whatsoever.
6.2.4 Selection of the installation location for the control console Suitable for the control console: In the space above the DIN installation shaft, close to the steering wheel (in an easily accessible and visible position) Unsuitable for the control console: Airbag infl ation space, potential head impact zones, out of reach of driver’s reach 6.
Mounting the electronics box For mounting the electronics box, use four self-threading screws and appropriate washers. We recommend size “ST 2,9x25 DIN 7981”self-threading screws. These are ideal for the fixing of the electronics box. Pre-drill the holes with a 0.08 in drill. 6.3.2 Mounting the microphone Define the mounting location The microphone holder has a self-adhesive strip on the back. The mounting location should have the same form and area as the self-adhesive strip on the microphone holder.
Cleaning and degreasing the mounting location The mounting location must be clean and free from grease and dirt/dust. Prior to installation, clean the area with a cleansing product containing ethyl alcohol. Only use cleansing products that do not damage plastics or varnished wood finishes and are themselves free of oils or grease. Unsuitable cleansers are, for example, lighter fluid, acetone, turpentine, trichloroethylene and similar products.
q NOTE: If your car audio system has different phone connection options from those mentioned here, please consult a qualified professional for installation of the system. Furthermore, please read the section with information on connecting the mute lead of the ISO connection cable, “6.5.1 Checking the mute input”. Fig.
6.5 Installation of the ISO connecting cable The battery must be disconnected before starting cable installation. Disconnect the grounding cable from the negative pole of the battery. The cable installation procedure is shown in the illustrations. Fig.
