If a defect arises in the electronic controls, after some disassembly work the
satellite dish can be returned to the park position (horizontal position) manually.
Following this however recalibration by an authorised workshop is always necessary.
Driving to the nearest workshop with the antenna extended at a moderate
speed and taking into account the increase (+ 79 cm) in the vehicle height is an
option and is preferable to manual lowering!
Users unfamiliar with the necessary repair work are urged not to attempt to
lower the antenna manually into park position themselves. They should contact
a technician or engineer. They may fi nd a suitable person on the campsite.
In any case, the safety instructions listed below must be followed.
Make sure that:
-
The antenna and connected units are disconnected from the power
-
The person carrying out the repairs does not suffer from vertigo and can
move around safely on the roof of the caravan or motor home
-
The person carrying out the repairs is wearing sturdy and non-slip shoes
-
The person carrying out the repairs has a secure position to stand and hold
on while working
-
The roof and the climbing equipment used (e.g. ladder) are dry, clean and
non-slip
-
The roof can withstand the weight of the person carrying out the repairs
Attention! Risk of death or injury due to falling or roof collapsing!
-
Do not hold onto the antenna, as the rocker comes free without warning
during dismantling
Attention! Risk of death and injury due to falling or crushing!
- Nobody should be inside the caravan/motor home underneath the
antenna during dismantling/installation
Attention! Risk of death or injury due to possible roof collapsing and
falling parts!
