Mounting Considerations

This device should be mounted in a location that is not exposed
to extreme temperatures or conditions. The temperature range
for this device is listed in the product specifications. Extended
exposure to temperatures exceeding the specified temperature
range, in storage or operating conditions, may cause device
failure. Extreme-temperature-induced damage and related
consequences are not covered by the warranty.
When selecting a mounting location, observe these
considerations.
• To avoid interference with a magnetic compass, do not install
the device closer to a compass than the compass-safe
distance value listed in the product specifications.
• A 10 m (32 ft) extension cable is included to connect the
handset to the VHF radio. You must select a mounting
location for the handset that allows this extension cable to
connect to the back of the VHF radio.
• You can use the included screws to mount the extension
cable and the handset cradle mount on your boat. If the
included screws are not appropriate for the mounting surface,
you must purchase suitable hardware.
