Choose the most appropriate location from a simple and
practical point of view. If installed in a vehicle, care should
be taken to ensure your radio does not obstruct the driver
or passengers.
1. Use the Self-tapping Screws and Pads to fix the Bracket
to a suitable location.
2. Attach the Adhesive Case Protectors to the inside ends of the Mounting Bracket
and insert the Radio. Fit the Adjusting Screws loosely, and choose a suitable
angle by moving the Adjusting Screws to one of the 3 positions on the Mounting
Bracket.
3. Tighten the Adjusting Screws firmly by hand. Make sure the radio and all
accessories are securely mounted.

MICROPHONE CONNECTION
1. Plug microphone connector into the microphone jack.
2. Tighten the retaining ring on the microphone connector by hand.
1. Screw the antenna connector into the antenna jack.
2. If required, grounding of the antenna system will ensure best performance.
POWER CONNECTION
This radio requires a 13.8V (12V) DC power supply. Never connect the radio directly
to a 24V DC battery system, as can be found in some vehicles.
Please refer to the radio Specifications to ensure your 13.8V DC power supply can
provide enough current (amps), otherwise poor performance may occur.
3. A mobile antenna can be mounted in various locations, for example:
WARNING:
▲NEVER transmit without a connected resonant antenna, or a suitable 50
ohm load being connected. Damage to the radio may result.
▲To reduce the risk of electric shock, or radio damage, base station
installations should include lightning protection devices.
▲Ask your Anytone dealer for available antenna options.
ANTENNA INSTALLATION
Before using this radio, please install an efficient and resonant antenna. Using
an antenna that is correctly installed and tuned will enable excellent
communication performance.
This radio requires an antenna impedance of 50 ohms, unbalanced.

1. Connect the positive (red) power cable to the + terminal of the battery.
2. Connect the negative (black) power cable to the - terminal of the battery.
3. Connect the DC power cable to the transceiver's power supply connector.
▲Locate the power cable away from high temperature, moisture, and other
electrical systems. Ensure it is installed where it cannot be damaged.
▲It is not recommended to use a vehicle cigar/cigarette lighter socket to power the
radio, as it may not supply the correct voltage or current.
▲Do not remove the fuse holder from the cable.
- (Black wire) connected to
chassis ground in most 12V
vehicles (confirm with your
vehicle manufacturer)
REPLACING FUSES
This radio requires a 10A, 250V fuse.
If the fuse blows, determine the reason, then correct the problem.
After the problem is resolved, replace the fuse. If newly installed fuses continue
to blow, disconnect the power cable and contact your authorized dealer or an
authorized service center.
1. Twist the two fuse covers in opposite directions, and open it.
