IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not open the cover of the unit. No user-serviceable parts are inside. Opening the
covers voids the guarantee of the antenna. Refer to an authorized dealer/installer
service center. Installation of the system should be done by authorized dealer/
installer. Installation made by an unauthorized person cancels the guarantee.
Do not connect any unapproved equipment as this can potentially damage the antenna
and could void the guarantee.
Please be aware once the antenna is installed ensure you allow for the additional height
on the vehicle. Make sure that this height will not cause any risk while moving the
vehicle. It is very important to be aware of this height of the vehicle and antenna position
when driving down narrow lanes or road.
Once installed it is the owners responability to ensure the safety of the antenna.
BEFORE STARTING THE INSTALLATION
When choosing the installation placement of the antenna please make sure that there
are no physical solid obstacles ie air conditioning units, roof bars or any other solid
object around the antenna that could prevent it from tracking a satellite.
Ensure during installation on the roof surface that it should be clean, smooth and if
possible on the centerline according to the vehicle width.
If installing on a curved roof (narrowboat) its important that additional wedges are
made/used for supporting the mounting feet. Otherwise, there will be at difference in
levels between the front/rear and side feet and the antenna dome base could bend
and potentially damage the antenna.
Make sure that the installation roof surface is rigid and strong enough to support the
weight of the antenna and not flex.
The RF cable connector of the antenna should be facing the rear side of the antenna
according to the moving direction of the vehicle. In this position, the physical effects like
rain and wind will be at the minimum level.
Before starting the installing of the antenna, make sure that the surface is dry and clean,
on which the antenna will be mounted.
