1 INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS ■■Connecting to a battery RRWARNING! ••NEVER remove the fuses from the cable connecting the transceiver to a power source, especially a car battery. ••NEVER connect the transceiver directly to a 24 V battery. The transceiver must be connected to a 24 V battery through the DC-DC converter. CAUTION: ••DO NOT use a cigarette lighter socket as a power source when operating in a vehicle. The plug may cause voltage drops and ignition noise may be superimposed onto transmit or receive audio. ••DO NOT pull or tightly bend the DC power cable. ••DO NOT reverse the polarity when connecting the DC power cable. ••Use a rubber grommet when passing the DC power cable through a metal plate to prevent a short circuit. ••The transceiver may not receive well on some frequencies when installed in a hybrid vehicle, or any type of electric vehicle (fuel cell vehicle). This is because vehicle's electric components, such as the inverter system, generate a lot of electrical noise.
