Power Cables
Route the red radio power cable from the radio to the battery compartment of the vehicle, using
accepted industry methods and standards. Be sure to grommet the firewall hole to protect the cable.
Remove the 15-Amp (part number 6580283E06) or 20-Amp (part number 6580283E07) fuse from the
fuseholder and connect the red lead of the radio power cable to the positive battery terminal using the
hardware provided.
Connect the black lead to a convenient solid chassis ground point. Do not connect the black lead
directly to the battery negative terminal.
NOTICE:
The radio nominal operating voltage for 12 V vehicle installation is 13.2 VDC with an operating
voltage range of 10.8–15.6 V.
