5.1.2 Unpacking and Preparing
NOTICE
Risk of material damage during transportation!
►
Never carry the turntable on the planar antenna.
►
Keep the turntable in its cardboard box for transport on to the vehicle roof.
Unpacking the Turntable
Tip
The packaging of the turntable can be opened along the centre.
This makes it easier to access the fastening screws once the
system and inserts have been taken out of the packaging.
Tip
Retain the original packaging, because if it is necessary to send
the unit for repair, transport damage cannot be ruled out and the
manufacturer accepts no liability for possible damage.
Preparing the Turntable
1. Loosen the six fastening screws (width across flats: 10 mm).
2. Carefully lift the turntable off the mounting plate and place it on the two prepared wooden supports. Make sure that
the cables are not crushed where they emerge from the underside of the turntable.
