2.1
INSTALLATION PLANNING
INSTALLATION
• Installation of vehicle equipment should be performed
by a professional installer/technician qualified in the
requirements for such installations. An air bag's size,
shape and deployment area can vary by vehicle make,
model and front compartment configuration (e.g.,
bench seat vs. bucket seats).
• Contact
the
vehicle
manufacturer's
corporate
headquarters, if necessary, for specific air bag
information for the vehicle make, model and front
compartment
configuration
involved
in
your
communication equipment installation.
Install the unit independently from the radio inside a single
bracket.
The installation should not interfere with the operation of the
vehicle or its accessories nor disturb passenger seating or leg
space.
If the surface at the proposed mounting location is uneven,
use washers as shims to obtain an even mounting plane.
Follow the installation procedure described in the following
paragraphs.

SINGLE-BRACKET INSTALLATION
When planning
the
installation
of
communication
equipment in a vehicle with one or more air bags, proceed as
follows:
CAUTION
Vehicles equipped with air bags.
An air bag inflates with great force. Do
NOT place objects, including communi-
cation equipment, in the area over the
air bag or in the air bag deployment ar-
ea. If the communication equipment is
improperly installed and the air bag in-
flates, this could cause serious injury.
Use the bracket as a template to determine the mounting
screw location. Figure 1 shows a mechanical drawing of the
single bracket. Figure 2 shows how the modem is installed
onto the bracket.
