Important Safety Instructions
Manual contains important safety and operating instructions and must be read in conjunction with the
product safety information supplied with the mobile or portable radios, used with the accessories.
Read these instructions carefully and save them for future reference. Installation of communications
equipment must be performed by qualified personnel only. Read the instructions and cautionary
markings on all other items before using the Vehicular Cradle Kit. Consult vehicle manufacturer
guidance on mounting equipment in vehicles.
Safety and General Information
A properly installed Vehicular Cradle Kit minimizes service calls.
When mounting the components of the Vehicular Cradle Kit, consider the following factors:
• The mounting surface must have sufficient strength to support the item being mounted to prevent it
from becoming loose over time.
• Do not attach components to any part of the vehicle that is subject to excessive vibration.
• The proposed location of the item being mounted, wires, or cables attached must not interfere with
the driver or passenger seating or leg space.
• Use the supplied mounting hardware.
• Ensure that the cables are not stretched and not subject to heat from the engine, transmission
housing, or heating ducts.
• Crimp connectors securely.
• Do not run cables over sharp edges that may cause excessive wear or chaffing of the cable
insulation.
• Do not install components in locations where they may cause interference to the operation of the
vehicle controls.
Check the required mounting locations. Modern cars are equipped with power supply connections
for mobile phone inside the passengers cabin. It is preferable to connect the power cable to these
connections.
On some vehicles, it is necessary to penetrate the bulkhead to reach the battery. Ensure that there
is cable clearance on the opposite side of the bulkhead and that vehicle Electronic Control Modules
(ECM) are not installed on the opposite side of the bulkhead before drilling commences. Protect the
cable where it passes through the bulkhead by using a grommet or similar protective measures.

Operational Safety Guidelines
This section provides the operational safety guidelines for the equipment.
CAUTION:
1Equipment that is not specified for outdoor use must only be used in dry locations. Keep in
mind if rain or snow can reach the equipment, such as through an open vehicle window.
2Maximum ambient temperature around the equipment must not exceed 50 °C (122 °F).
3Prevent foreign objects or fluids from getting into the equipment.
4To reduce risk of injury, use only Motorola Solutions approved items with your mobile or
portable radios.
5It is essential to mount the equipment in locations where does not cause any injury in the
event of a collision.
6A vehicle air bag inflates with great force. Do not place objects, including communications
equipment, in the area over the vehicle air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If the
communication equipment is improperly installed and the vehicle air bag inflates, this could
cause serious injury. If necessary, contact the vehicle manufacturer for air bag information
specific to the vehicle.
7Verify that none of the vehicle systems are affected by use of the portable radio such
as cruise control, anti-lock braking system (ABS), traction control, engine management,
direction indicators, lights, and others.
8Use existing openings through the bulkhead to avoid drilling. If drilling is necessary, ensure
that no damage is incurred to the Vehicle Electronic Control Modules (ECM), fuel pipes,
brake pipes, and/or cable looms.
9Do not transport or store flammable gas, flammable liquids, or explosives in the
compartment of your vehicle that contains your equipment.
10 To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn your radio off before entering
an area where you maybe close to electrical blasting caps, in a “blasting area” or in areas
posted as “Turn off two-way radios”. Obey all signs and instructions.
IMPORTANT: This is a class A product. In a domestic environment, this product may cause
radio interference in which case the user may be required to take adequate measures.

The PMLN8307, PMLN8308 (coupled with NNTN8040 or PMLN7825A), PMLN8309, and PMLN8310
Vehicular Cradle Kits charge the TETRA MXP600 Series battery whenever the TETRA MXP600 Series
is mounted in the cradle and the vehicle ignition is On. The PMLN8305 and PMLN8306 Vehicular
Radio Cradle Kits provide a radio mounting solution. The radio cradle secures the radio inside the
moving vehicle while allowing easy removal. The PMLN8305 and PMLN8306 Vehicular Radio Cradle
Kits do not provide charging.

Installation Procedures
This section provides the Vehicular Cradle Installation cautions.
CAUTION:
• An air bag inflates with great force. Do not place objects, including communications
equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If the
communication equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, this could cause
serious injury. If necessary, contact the vehicle manufacturer for air bag information specific
to the vehicle.
• Verify that none of the vehicle systems are affected by use of the MXP600 radio such
as cruise control, anti-lock braking system (ABS), traction control, engine management,
direction indicators, lights, and others.
• Use existing openings through the bulkhead to avoid drilling. If drilling is a must, verify that
no damage is done to the Vehicle Electronic Control Modules (ECM), fuel pipes, brake
pipes, and/or cable looms.
2.1
Vehicular Cradle Installation
This section provides installation procedures for Vehicular Cradle.
NOTE: Use the supplied fastening hardware to rigidly secure the cradle. An unsecured cradle
could cause a unit to move and interfere with the proper operation of the vehicle. The charging
cradle must be mounted in such a way that the MXP600 radio is within easy reach of the driver
during normal operation of the vehicle. Sufficient room should be allowed to permit the insertion
of the radio. Provide easy access to the release mechanism of the radio from the cradle.
