 ===How to install an FM device in a vehicle===
-This page will guide you on how to mount a Teltonika Vehicle Telematics device properly, which is an important procedure to allow the device to function correctly and effectively. Embedded below is a short video showing the general steps to install a Teltonika Vehicle Telematics devices.
+This page will guide you on how to mount a Teltonika Vehicle Telematics device properly, which is an important procedure to allow the device to function correctly and effectively.
-The device in the video is an FM3622, but these steps can also be applied to most other devices.
+The tools and items needed to install a device are:
+* Pliers
+* Multimeter
+* Tool Set
+* Fasteners (e.g. zip-ties)
+* Quick wire splicing clips
+* SIM card
+===1. Open device casing to connect internal battery and insert SIM card.===
+Teltonika devices come with the internal backup battery disconnected (unless specially ordered), so before installation you must open the device and connect the battery. While the device casing is open, insert the SIM card you will use with your device.
+Step-by-step instructions on how to open your device can be found in your device's wiki page, in the First Start section.

+===2. Disassemble interior trim to find fuse box, power cable.===
+Unless your device has a special installation method, the device will have to be connected to wires inside the dashboard. Use the multimeter to find the main power wire by testing wires until the multimeter reads around 12-13 V.
+Then, locate a chassis ground point where the device Ground wire should be connected.
+Optionally, you can also locate the Ignition wire by checking for voltage changes of various wires when turning ignition on/off.
+===3. Connect power cable, ground cable, ignition wire (optional).===
+When power wire is located, use a wire clip to connect the appropriate input from the device to the power wire. If you want to connect the ignition wire, use another wire clip to connect it in a similar way.
+Afterwards, connect the Ground wire to the chassis ground point.
+===4. Thread external GNSS and GPRS antennas (if needed according to device model).===
+If your device uses external antennas, thread them through the dashboard and fasten them in place. The external GNSS antenna reciever should be as close the the windshield as possible, obstructed by the least amount of metal. Likewise, device with internal antennas should be also placed as close to the windshield as possible.
+===4. Fasten device inside dashboard, connect antennas and cables.===
+When you've decided on the installation spot for the device, fasten it using the fasteners, connect the antennas and other cables.
+Embedded below is a short video showing the general steps to install a Teltonika Vehicle Telematics devices.
+===5. Check device functionality and reassemble dashboard.===
+After fastening ther device and connecting everything, check to see if device is turning on and the LEDs are blinking. After that, reassemble the dashboard.
+Below is a demonstration of the installation procedure. The device in the video is an FM3622, but these steps can also be applied to most other devices.
 '''''Note:''' Devices like the [[FMT100]] and FMB0XY series devices ([[FMB001]], [[FMB002]], [[FMB003]], [[FMB010]], [[FMB020]], [[FMC001]]) have their own special simplified installation process, so this video does not apply to them.''
