Manually Lowering the Antenna to Park Position
NOTICE
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 automatically.
After some disassembly work, the satellite dish can be put 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 +79 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 a suitable person on the campsite.
►
It is necessary to recalibrate the antenna in an authorised workshop after it has been manually lowered to
the park position.
