2.2.2 Remote Mount with Trunnion

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 is in the vehicle’s trunk. The trunnion provided may still be used to mount

the transceiver, and the mounting process is the same as for the dash mount installation

(Section 2.2.1). See Figure 2-10 or Figure 2-11 for a remote installation.

2.2.2.1 Remote Mount Control Head Installation

Choose a mounting location for the radio, considering accessibility, and control and antenna cable

lengths.

The recommended mounting surfaces for the control unit are under the mounting surface, on the

transmission hump, or on the center console. Figure 2-21 and Figure 2-22 shows how the trunnion,

control head, and cables should be installed for the O2, O3, O5, O7 or O9 control head.

NOTE: Connector-protective covers (Remote Mount Dust Cover kit) KT000246A01 are provided with

the radio.

They should be installed on exposed connectors for added environmental robustness.

Before installing any electrical equipment, check the vehicle manufacturer’s user

manual.

The installation of this device should be completed by an authorized servicer or

installer.

Before making any holes in the trunk for radio mounting, check the vehicle

manufacturer's user manual for restrictions (e.g. due to the gas tank location).
