6. INSTALLATION PROCESS
6.1 GENERAL INFORMATION
Before starting, plan the installation carefully so it will meet the following requirements:
• The installation must be safe for the operator and passengers within the vehicle.
• The installation allows for convenient access by the operator, as applicable (i.e., the Control Head).
• The mobile radio is mounted in a location assuring the vehicle occupants’ safety and out of the way of
passengers and auto mechanics.
• The equipment is installed away from the airbag deployment areas.
• The equipment is protected from water damage.
• The installation is neat and allows easy service access.
Before starting the installation, it is imperative to discuss with the customer the exact
location in the vehicle where equipment is going to be installed. This will prevent hours
of rework and reinstallation and will build customer satisfaction.
Figure 6-1 shows the high-level process for performing mobile radio installations.
