NEVER MOUNT THE ANTENNA ON METAL PARTS OF THE CHASSIS

Try to keep both radials at least 5 cm away from any metal parts and wiring 
looms of the vehicle. Both radials may be bent to fit the desired location but 
not more than approximately 20 degrees from the vertical position.

THE ANTENNA IS CRITICAL TO THE PERFORMANCE OF BLU EYE. 

So, before fixing permanently, test the electrical noise obtained using Installer 
Mode. Reposition the antenna if necessary to get the lowest possible noise. 
Please contact your supplier if your Blu Eye has not been supplied with Installer 
Mode. An Installer Mode software upgrade can be sent to you by email. You 
will need to let your supplier know the serial number of your unit. 

Details on Installer Mode can be found in the Blu Eye installation manual. 
Please see our download center on www.blu-eye.eu.

FINAL INSTALLATION OF THE ANTENNA. 

The antenna can be permanently attached to the inside of the bumper when 
the best possible position has been confirmed using Installer Mode. Make 
sure the surface is clean and dry. Use a 2-component glue kit or hot melt glue. 
Make sure you glue the antenna in at least  the 5 positions (shown by the 
circles) in the diagram. False alerts can be caused if the antenna vibrates or 
moves. Attach it securely for optimum performance.    

This antenna is equiped with a FME connector. An adaptor to SMA male used 
on the Blu Eye receiver is included in the package.
