Installation Precautions and Tips

When selecting an antenna location, make sure the proposed site is the highest possible and
does not interfere with the driver’s visibility of the road during vehicle operation.

Also, at the proposed site, verify that there is at least a 20-degree clearance from any 
obstruction on all sides, including any metal hardware and exhaust stacks. Installation near
fiberglass wind fairings is acceptable with minimal signal blockage.

Prior to installation, turn off all audio systems and other electrical devices. Disconnect the (–)
negative lead from the vehicle’s battery.

At the installation site, locate and make a note of all fuel lines, hydraulic brake lines, and 
electrical wiring. Use extreme caution when cutting or drilling in and around these areas.
Always wear protective eyewear when using tools.
