PREPARATION
Various electronic equipment in your vehicle may malfunction if they are not properly protected
from the radio frequency energy which is present while transmitting. Electronic fuel injection, anti-
skid braking, and cruise control systems are typical examples of equipment that may malfunction.
If your vehicle contains such equipment, consult the dealer for the make of vehicle and enlist
his/her aid in determining if they will perform normally while transmitting.
Note: The following preparation instructions are for use by your Kenwood dealer, an authorized
Kenwood service facility, or the factory.
ToolS required
Note: Before installing the transceiver, always check how far the mounting screws will extend
below the mounting surface. When drilling mounting holes, be careful not to damage vehicle wiring
or parts.
The following tools are required for installing the transceiver:
•
•
ꢀ/4 inch (6 mm) or larger electric drill
5/3ꢁ inch (4.ꢁ mm) drill bit for the self-tapping screws used to mount the optional
mounting bracket
•
Circle cutters
power cAble connecTion
◆
The transceiver operates in 12 V negative ground systems only! Check the battery polarity and
voltage of the vehicle before installing the transceiver.
◆
◆
Use only a Kenwood optional DC power cable.
Do not cut and/or remove the fuse holder on the DC power cable.
1 Check for an existing hole, conveniently located in the firewall, where a power
cable can be passed through. If no hole exists, use a circle cutter to drill the
firewall, then install a rubber grommet.
2 Run the two power cable leads through the firewall and into the engine
compartment, from the passenger compartment.
3 Connect the red lead to the positive (+) battery terminal and the black lead to
the negative (–) battery terminal.
•
Locate the fuse as close to the battery as possible.
4 Coil and secure the surplus cable with a retaining band.
•
Be sure to leave enough slack in the cables so the transceiver can be removed for
servicing while keeping the power applied.

inSTAlling The TrAnSceiver
For passenger safety, install the transceiver securely using an optional mounting bracket and screw
set so the transceiver will not break loose in the event of a collision.
1 Mark the position of the holes in the dash by using the mounting bracket as a
template. Drill the holes, then attach the mounting bracket using self-tapping
screws.
•
Be sure to mount the transceiver in a location where the controls are within easy
reach of the user and where there is sufficient space at the rear of the transceiver for
cable connections.
2 Connect the antenna and power cable to the transceiver.
3 Slide the transceiver into the mounting bracket and secure it using
hex-headed screws.
4 Mount a microphone hanger in a location where it will be within easy reach of
the user yet not interfere with the safe operation of the vehicle.
When replacing the fuse in the DC power cable, be sure to replace it with a fuse of the same value.
Never replace a fuse with a fuse that has a higher value.

) will
appear on the display when the selected channel is added to the scan sequence.
•
•
The channels included in the scan list are scanned.
When a signal is detected on a channel, Scan pauses on that channel. The transceiver
will remain on the busy channel until the signal is no longer present. When the signal
“drops out”, the transceiver will remain on the channel momentarily before Scan
resumes. This delay time is programmed by your dealer. If a signal is received during
the delay time, the transceiver will remain on the same channel.
To stop scanning, press the Scan key again.
Note:
◆
If the currently selected channel is not added to the scanning sequence, Scan will not function
when pressing the key programmed as Scan. Be sure that the selected channel is added to
the scanning sequence before operating Scan.

A Priority channel must be programmed in order for Priority Scan to function.
When using a single Priority channel, the transceiver will automatically change to
the Priority channel when a call is received on it, even if a call is being received
on a normal channel.
When using dual Priority channels, Priority channel ꢀ is given precedence over
Priority channel ꢁ. So, if a call is received on Priority channel ꢀ while a call is
already on Priority channel ꢁ, the transceiver will automatically change to Priority
channel ꢀ.
•
“Pꢀ” appears on the sub-display when the displayed channel is Priority channel ꢀ, “Pꢁ”

newly selected zone and channel are assigned as the new revert zone and channel.
The transceiver “talks back” on the current receive channel.
•
•
Priority 1: If your dealer has programmed a Priority ꢀ channel, this channel is the
revert zone and channel.
Priority 1 + Talkback: If your dealer has programmed a Priority ꢀ channel, this channel
is the revert zone and channel. The transceiver “talks back” on the current receive
channel.
•
•
Priority 2: If your dealer has programmed a Priority ꢁ channel, this channel is the
revert zone and channel.
Priority 2 + Talkback: If your dealer has programmed a Priority ꢁ channel, this channel
is the revert zone and channel. The transceiver “talks back” on the current receive
channel.
•
Last Called: The last channel on which you made a call is assigned as the new revert
channel.

SIGNALING
Note: Signaling can be used only in Conventional FM Operation.
quieT TAlK (qT)/ digiTAl quieT TAlK (dqT)
Your dealer may have programmed QT or DQT signaling on your transceiver
channels. A QT tone/ DQT code is a sub-audible tone/code which allows you to
ignore (not hear) calls from other parties who are using the same channel.
When a channel is set up with a QT tone or DQT code, squelch will only open
when a call containing a matching tone or code is received. Likewise, signals that
you transmit will only be heard by parties whose QT/ DQT signaling matches your
transceiver.
If a call containing a different tone or code is made on the same channel you are
using, squelch will not open and you will not hear the call. Although it may seem
like you have your own private channel while using QT/ DQT, other parties can
still hear your calls if they set up their transceiver with the same tone or code.
■ Operator Selectable Tone (OST)
If a key has been programmed with Operator Selectable Tone, you can
reprogram the QT tone or DQT code on each of your channels.
1 Select your desired zone and channel.
2 Press and hold the key programmed as Operator Selectable Tone for
ꢀ second.

The
(KCH-ꢀ4) or (KCH-ꢀ5) icon appears on the display when this
function is activated.
3 Press the GRP

keys, rotate the CH control, or enter the list
number directly using a DTMF keypad to select your desired tone or code
from ꢀ to 40.
4 Press the PF 1 or DTMF key to exit OST Selection mode.
•
OST is activated after selecting a list number and exiting OST Selection mode.
After selecting and setting up your desired tone or code, press the Operator

BACKGROUND OPERATIONS
Your dealer can activate a variety of transceiver functions to perform without any
additional operation on your part.
Time-ouT Timer (ToT)
The Time-out Timer is used to prevent any caller from using a channel for an
extended period of time.
If you continuously transmit for a period of time that exceeds the programmed
time, the transceiver will stop transmitting and an alert tone will sound. To stop
the tone, release the microphone PTT switch. Your dealer can program the TOT
time in the range of ꢀ5 seconds to ꢁ0 minutes.
If programmed by your dealer, a pre-alert tone will sound before the timer expires.
Also, if programmed by your dealer, you may have to wait for a short duration
before you can continue to transmit. If you press the microphone PTT switch
before the timer has been reset, an alert tone will sound and the transceiver will
not enter transmit mode.
SignAl STrengTh indicATor
The signal strength indicator displays the strength of received signals.
Strong signal
Sufficient signal
Weak signal
Very weak signal
On Trunking channels, the antenna indicator flashes while searching for a control
channel.
compAnder
The compander is programmed only for specific Conventional FM channels. If it
has been programmed by your dealer, transmitted signals are compressed before
being sent and received signals are expanded when they arrive.
•
Your dealer must set the compander for both the transmit side and the receive side in
order for the compander to operate.
This background feature allows higher clarity of signals, avoiding excessive noise
and interference. This feature is not used on digital channels, as they are not
susceptible to noise and interference.

tone sounds and “OUT OF RANGE” appears on the display.
SiTe TrunKing
On Trunking channels, if set up by your dealer, the transceiver will indicate a
network condition on the registered site. When the transceiver receives a network
disabled message, “SITE TRUNK” appears on the display.
conTrol chAnnel hunT
On Trunking channels, the transceiver must search for a control channel. While
searching for a control channel, no signals can be received. The search begins
automatically when you change to a Trunking channel.
