Take care not to damage the vehicle's electrical system while drilling the dash board. E) Do not forget to insert the rubber joints (3) between the CB and its support as these have a shock-absorbing effect which permits gentle orientation and tightening of the set. F) Choose where to place the microphone support and remember that the microphone cord must stretch to the driver without interfering with the controls of the vehicle. [. . . ] Should it be necessary to lengthen the power cable, you should use the same or a superior type of cable. We advise you to connect the power cable directly to the battery (as the connection of the CB cable to the wiring of the car-radio or other parts of the electrical circuit may, in some cases, increase the likelihood of interference). d) Connect the red wire (+) to the positive terminal of the battery and the black (-) wire to the negative terminal of the battery. WARNING: In order to avoid any losses and attenuations in cables used for connection between the radio and its accessories, PRESIDENT recommends to use a cable with a length inferior to 3m. WARNING: This must be carried out when you use your CB radio for the first time (and whenever you re-position your antenna). TOS-1 PRESIDENT) a) To connect the SWR meter : - Connect the SWR meter between the CB radio and the antenna as close as possible to the CB (use a maximum of 40 cm cable, type President CA 2C). If this is not the case, re-adjust your antenna to obtain a reading as close as possible to 1. - It will be necessary to re-calibrate the SWR meter after each adjustment of the antenna. Squelch does not affect neither sound nor transmission power, but allows a considerable improvement in listening comfort. No repetitive manual adjustment and a permanent improvement between the sensitivity and the listening comfort when ASC is active. B) MANUAL SQUELCH Turn the SQ knob clockwise to the exact point where all background noise disappears. This adjustment should be done with precision as, if set to maximum (fully clockwise), only the strongest signals will be received. In order to change the configuration, use the channel selector on the front panel. And the letter corresponding to the configuration are continuously displayed, a beep sounds. At this point, confirm the selection by switching off the transceiver and then switching it on again. In order to disable the function, press during 1 second the KEY BP key. You can reduce the RF GAIN in order to avoid distortion when your correspondent is close by and when he has no RF POWER. The VOX function allows transmitting by speaking into the original microphone (or in the optional vox microphone) without pressing the PTT switch. the use of an optional vox mike connected to the rear panel of the transceiver (C) disables the original microphone. A new press on the VOX key disables the function «VOX» disappears. A «beep» sounds each time the channel changes if the KEY BP function is activated.
