2.4 Installing the Microphone

Introduction

This section describes the radio’s microphone connector and the information

required to connect the microphone and install the microphone clip.

Connecting the Microphone 1. Plug the microphone into the microphone socket.

Important The microphone grommet must be installed whenever the

microphone is plugged into the microphone socket:

■ to prevent damage to the microphone socket when

there is movement of the microphone cord, and

■ to ensure that the control head is sealed against water,

dust and other environmental hazards.

2. Slide the grommet along the microphone cord and push two adjacent

corners of the grommet into the microphone socket cavity.

3. Squeeze the grommet and push the remaining corners into position.

4. Check that the grommet is seated correctly in the cavity.

Installing the Microphone Clip Warning!! Safe radio mounting

■ Mount the microphone where it will not interfere with the vehicle

operator controls.

■ Mount the microphone where it will not interfere with the vehicle

operator’s view.

■ Mount the microphone where it will not interfere with air bag

deployment.

Important Only install the microphone clip provided. If a non-stand-

ard microphone clip is used, the correct operation of the

microphone hookswitch cannot be guaranteed.

Install the microphone clip in the most convenient location using the screws

provided. The microphone must be within reach of the user but in such a

position, that the PTT (press-to-talk) key cannot be inadvertently activated

or jammed.
