6. Then mark the antenna base (moun-
ting plate) with a pen.
7. Slightly roughen the drawn surface
with sandpaper (120 grit) and clean
the surface again with the cleaner
and allow the cleaner to flash off for
approx. 10 minutes.
ATTENTION: Do not touch the
surfaces afterwards!
1. Provide a suitable workplace. A garage or hall is better than an outdoor place. The
ambient temperature for mounting must be b5° C and max. +25° C. Do not
work directly in the sun. Observe the work regulations when handling chemical pro-
ducts. Ensure the necessary working hygiene.
2. Make sure that the roof of your vehicle is sufficiently stable. For If the stability of the
roof is insufficient or doubtful, an approx. 2 mm thick sheet metal of approx. 100 x 100
cm must be fastened to the outer skin of the roof. For further information please cont-
actyour vehicle manufacturer.
3. your vehicle manufacturer.
4. Check that all parts are present.
Place the antenna at the later installation site and align it so that the mirror and the
LNB unit point towards the rear of the vehicle. Make sure that the mounting surface is
flat and that there are no roof structures in the way. The minimum distance to an air
conditioner should be 30 cm.
5. Clean the mounting surface with a
suitable cleaner and a fleece cloth to
remove dirt and impurities.
1. Prepare the adhesive for assembly.
2. Now apply the adhesive to the under-
side of the antenna foot in wavy lines
so that the adhesive can harden well
inside.
3. Now immediately (within 5 minutes
of applying the adhesive) place the
antenna on the marked field. Press
the foot lightly and evenly on and fix
the antenna so that it does not slip, e.g. with an adhesive tape. After pressing, there
must be at least 2 mm of adhesive between the antenna foot and the surface. The
adhesive is cured after max. 48 hours at +18° C and a relative humidity of 50%. If the air
humidity is lower during installation, spray some water into the air again and again
after sticking the adhesive in the vicinity of the antenna.
4. Remove the possibly leaked adhesive immediately with a spatula or similar and clean
the contaminated surfaces with the cleaner and a fleece cloth.
5. For safety reasons, you can also attach the antenna base. Drill through the existing
holes in the antenna foot into the roof of your vehicle and fix it with a screw and lock
nut. To prevent the freshly glued base from slipping, wait with this work until the adhe-
sive has hardened.
6. After the complete assembly and hardening of the adhesive, a silicone joint can be
drawn around the antenna base.
