Connecting the radio antenna of
the vehicle
Connect the radio antenna of the vehicle to
the antenna jack of the unit.
Connecting the GPS antenna
• The antenna should be installed on a level
surface where radio waves will be blocked
as little as possible. Radio waves cannot be
received by the antenna if reception from
the satellite is blocked. Installation on the
vehicle roof or boot lid is recommended to
optimise reception.
• When installing the GPS antenna inside the
vehicle, be sure to use the metal sheet. If
this is not used, the reception sensitivity will
be poor.
• Do not cut the metal sheet. This would
reduce the sensitivity of the GPS antenna.
• Take care not to pull the antenna lead when
removing the GPS antenna. The magnet
attached to the antenna is very powerful,
and the lead may become detached.
• When installing the GPS antenna on the
outside of the vehicle, always put it in the
vehicle when going through an automatic
vehicle wash. If it is left on the outside it
may be knocked off and scratch the vehicle
body.
• The GPS antenna is installed with a magnet.
When installing the GPS antenna, be care-
ful not to scratch the vehicle body.
• Do not paint the GPS antenna, as this may
affect its performance.
Note
Do not cut the GPS antenna lead to shorten it
or use an extension to make it longer. Altering
the antenna cable could result in a short cir-
cuit or malfunction and permanent damage to
the unit.
Installing the antenna inside the vehi-
cle (on the rear shelf)
Affix the metal sheet on as level a surface as
possible where the GPS antenna faces the
window.
Place the GPS antenna on the metal sheet.
(The GPS antenna is fastened with its mag-
net.)
Notes
• When attaching the metal sheet, do not cut it
into small pieces.
• We recommend you install the GPS aerial
on the inside of vehicle.
