2.2 Radio Mounting
The mounting location must be accessible and visible. Select a location that will permit routing the
RF antenna cable as directly as possible.
For new or existing installations, use one of the mounting kits as specified in Table 2-1. Orient the
mounting trunnion as shown in Figure 2-3.
DO NOT mount the radio on a plastic dashboard without first reinforcing the dashboard; the weight of
the radio may crack or break the dashboard.
DO NOT mount the radio on a flat or concave surface where the radio could be partially submersed in
water. This is especially important if the cab area of the vehicle is cleaned by spraying with water. If the
radio sits in water for a length of time, moisture may seep inside the radio and damage the electronic
components.
DO NOT allow water to stand in recessed areas of vertically mounted radios. Remove any moisture
immediately to prevent it from seeping down into the radio.
