Safety Instructions

Safety Instructions

Follow these safety instructions when installing your antenna.

Warning

In order to comply with FCC radio frequency (RF) exposure limits, antennas should be located at a 
minimum of 7.9 inches (20 cm) or more from the body of all persons. 

Statement 332

Plan your installation procedure carefully and completely before you begin.

If you are installing an antenna for the first time, for your own safety as well as that of others, seek 

professional assistance

. Consult your dealer, who can explain which mounting method to use for the 

location where you intend to install the antenna.

Choose your installation site with safety as well as performance in mind. Remember that electric 
power cables and telephone lines look alike. For your safety, assume that any line is an electric 
power line until determined otherwise.

Call your local power company or building maintenance organization if you are unsure about cables 
close to your mounting location.

When installing your antenna, 

do not

 use a metal ladder. 

Do

 

dress properly: shoes with rubber soles 

and heels, rubber gloves, and a long-sleeved shirt or jacket.

If an accident or emergency occurs with the power lines, call for qualified emergency help 
immediately.
