Operation Manual

Installation of the radio

You can either operate your ALBRECHT AE 4200 R in the car or at home as a base

station. For installation as a mobile station in the car, a mobile mount device is

enclosed. Mount the set in such a way that it is not exposed to direct sunlight if

possible, as this would lead to an increase in the temperature and can decrease the

(set’s) working life. The set should also not be installed near a heater. Mount the set

in such a way that it is exposed to as little vibration as possible.

The mobile fixing device should be attached to the dashboard, the tunnel slot or to

any other suitable place using the enclosed tapping screws. Do not install the set in a

place where it could cause injuries in the case of an accident (be careful to ensure

free leg movement). Take care not to damage any underlying wires during

installation!

Then insert the radio into the mobile mount device. Secure the set with the large

knurled screws (using the enclosed plastic washers) firmly at the required angle.

Also mount the microphone hanger using the enclosed screws in an easily-

accessible place.

In order to prevent interference to the vehicle electronics from transmission in the

vehicle, please make sure to take any mounting instructions from the vehicle

manufacturer for radios and antennas into account.

Please note: European directives allow the car manufacturers to decide, whether or

not private radio transceivers may be operated in cars, this is also valid for antenna

installations. Please install Your mobile CB station only in accordance to car

manufacturer’s installation instructions.

Power supply

Your AE 4200 R receives power from the 2 pin fixed power cable.

The red and black wires in the cable are for the power supply. The cable has a

looped-in fuse.

You can choose from two methods when connecting to the power supply (red and

black):

Example 1

The radio should be able to be switched on and off at any time using the

volume / on/off switch.

Connect up the red to the positive pole on the vehicle battery (or elsewhere

in the vehicle’s electrical system with permanent plus) or to a 12 volt power

unit.

Connect up the black wire to the negative pole on the vehicle battery or the

power unit or to a well-conductive part of the car body.
