CONNECTING THE POWER CORDS
We recommend connecting the power lead to the Ignition Switch Accessory
Terminal. This way, the transceiver is automatically turned off when the
ignition switch is turned off.
Or, the power cord may be connected to an available terminal on the fuse
block, or, to a point in the wiring harness. However, caution must be taken to
prevent a short circuit. If in doubt, contact your vehicle dealer for information.

This transceiver may be installed and used in any 12-volt DC
negative or positive ground system vehicle.
GROUND INFORMATION
Most newer U.S. and foreign made cars, and small trucks, use a negative
ground system. Some older cars, and some new large trucks, use a positive
ground system.
With a negative ground system, the negative (-) battery terminal is usually
connected to the vehicle motor block. If you cannot determine the polarity
system of your vehicle, contact your vehicle dealer for information.
Negative Ground System
If you have a negative ground system,
connect the red DC power cord from
the transceiver to the positive (+) battery
terminal or other convenient point.
Then connect the black power cord to
the vehicle chassis or negative (-) battery
terminal.
Positive Ground System
If you have a positive ground
system,connect the black DC power
cord from the transceiver to the negative
(-) battery terminal or other convenient
point. Then, connect the red power
cord to the vehicle chassis or the
positive (+) battery terminal.
