Car phone or CB radio

When installing a car phone or a CB radio in your vehicle, be sure to observe the following cautions, otherwise the new equipment may adversely affect the electronic control modules and electronic control system harness.

WARNING

A cellular phone should not be used for any purpose while driving so full attention may be given to vehicle operation. Some jurisdictions prohibit the use of cellular phones while driving.
If you must make a call while your vehicle is in motion, the hands-free cellular phone operational mode (if so equipped) is highly recommended.

Exercise extreme caution at all times so full attention may be given to vehicle operation.
If a conversation in a moving vehicle requires you to take notes, pull off the road to a safe location and stop your vehicle before doing so.

CAUTION

Keep the antenna as far away as possible from the electronic control modules.
Keep the antenna wire more than 8 in (20 cm) away from the electronic control system harness. Do not route the antenna wire next to any harness.
Adjust the antenna standing-wave ratio as recommended by the manufacturer.
Connect the ground wire from the CB radio chassis to the body.
For details, consult a NISSAN dealer.
