Installation Of The Radio; Power Supply - Albrecht AE5290 XL Bedienungsanleitung

You can either operate your ALBRECHT AE 5290 XL in the car or at home as a base
station. For installation as a mobile station in the car, a mobile mount device is enclosed.
Mount the set in such a way that it is not exposed to direct sunlight if possible, as this would
lead to an increase in the temperature and can decrease the (set's) working life. The set
should also not be installed near a heater. Mount the set in such a way that it is exposed to
as little vibration as possible.
The mobile fixing device should be attached to the dashboard, the tunnel slot or to any other
suitable place using the enclosed tapping screws. Do not install the set in a place where it
could cause injuries in the case of an accident (be careful to ensure free leg movement).
Take care not to damage any underlying wires during installation!
Then insert the radio into the fixing device. Secure the set with the large knurled screws
(using the enclosed plastic washers) firmly at the required angle.
Also mount the microphone fixing device using the enclosed screws in an easily-accessible
place.
In order to prevent interference to the vehicle electronics from transmission in the vehicle,
please make sure to take any mounting instructions from the vehicle manufacturer for radios
and antennas into account. For truck installation, we supply a special DIN size mounting kit
as optional accessory.
Your AE 5290 XL receives power from the 2 pin plug-in cable.
The red and black wires in the cable are for the power supply. Since the AE 5290 XL radio
has now a permanent storage via EEPROM, it is no more necessary to connect any + wire to
permanent DC supply. The cable has a looped-in fuse.
You can choose from various methods when connecting to the power supply (red and black):
Example 1 : permanent connection to 12 Volts
The channel last tuned into and the 5 stored stations are maintained after switching
off; the set can be switched on and off at any time using the volume / on/off switch.
Connect up the red wire to the positive pole on the vehicle battery (or elsewhere in
the vehicle's electrical system with permanent plus) or to a 12 volt power unit.
Connect up the black wire to the negative pole on the vehicle battery or the power
unit or to a well-conductive part of the car body.
Example 2 : connection via ignition switch
The set should be automatically switched on and off with the ignition. All stored
stations should be kept in memory.
Attach the red wire to a part of the vehicle electrical system which is connected with
the ignition switch.
For EMC reasons, the cable used to connect to the power supply should be no longer than 3
metres.
If you wish to operate your set at home from the mains supply then please only use a
stabilized power pack with at least 2 amps permanent current-carrying capacity. Under no
circumstances should you use a car battery charger, or a simple DC power supply as they
