Telephone Cord 7 UNDER CABINET INSTALLATION 1) Choose an appropriate mounting location underneath a cabinet or shelf. Close proximity to an electrical outlet, TV antenna or cable connection and telephone jack will facilitate a neat, easy installation. Do not mount the VE926 above a range or oven. Be sure that the location chosen will provide adequate access to the electrical connections on the rear of the unit before continuing. 2) If the location chosen has a bottom edge molding it may be necessary to use the mounting spacers provided to effectively lower the VE926 below or even with the molding. Measure the distance between the edge molding and the bottom of the cabinet. The spacers and mounting holes are stepped to achieve different mounting heights from .5" to 1". Adjusting the mounting height is done by lifting and rotating the spacer in the mounting hole. Choose a spacer height, which will allow the VE926 to clear the edge molding. 3) Measure the thickness of the bottom of the cabinet or shelf and the spacer height chosen. Select the shortest screw length, which will secure the VE926 to the bottom of the cabinet. 4) Cut out the template supplied and tape it in place onto the cabinet surface to be drilled. Center punch the four holes indicated on the template and remove the template. 5) 6) 7) 8) 9) Carefully drill four 1/8 holes at the locations marked above. Connect your TV antenna or cable system to the antenna connector on the rear of the VE926. Attach the FM Dipole Antenna and position the antenna for the best reception. Attach the AM Antenna and position the antenna for the best reception. Position the VE926 and mount it in pl ...
