Manually Lowering the Antenna to Park Position
Risk of material damage due to a defect in the electronic controls!
If there is a defect in the electronic controls, the antenna cannot lower to the park position automati-
cally. After some disassembly work, the satellite dish can be lowered to the park position manually. Before
manually lowering the antenna, note the following:
►
Drive to the nearest workshop at a moderate speed with the antenna extended, taking into account
the increase of +80 cm in the vehicle height
Driving to the nearest workshop is preferable to the
manual lowering!
►
Do not attempt to lower the antenna manually to the park position yourself if you are unfamiliar with
the necessary repair work. Contact a technician or try to find another suitable person.
►
It is necessary to recalibrate the antenna in an authorised workshop after it has been manually lowered
to the park position.
