Warnings and Recommendations
Warning:
In a wireless installation, do not plug the amplifi er directly into the
cell phone or cellular data card using an antenna adapter. It will
damage the amplifi er, the cell phone or the cellular data card.
Warning:
Do not install the inside antenna within four inches of metal.
(Metal found inside the vehicle’s seat will not affect antenna
performance.)
Warning:
Do not use any type of glass-mount antenna with this amplifi er.
The outside and inside antennas must be shielded from each
other to prevent oscillation.
Warning:
Do not plug in the DC power supply until the outside and inside
antenna cables are attached to the amplifi er.
Warning:
RF Safety:
The inside antenna must be installed with a
separation of at least eight inches from all persons and must not
be located in conjunction with any other antenna or amplifi er.
Warning:
RF Safety:
The outside antenna must be installed with a
separation of at least 20 inches from any of the vehicle’s
occupants or nearby persons and must not be located or
operating in conjunction with any other antenna or amplifi er.
All roof-mount antennas should be centrally located on the
roof of the vehicle. Mirror-mount antennas should be at least
six inches from the ground and leave at least 20 inches of
separation from any persons near or around the vehicle. Use
of a cellular amplifi er with an antenna gain higher than 5.12 dBi
is in violation of FCC regulations for which the offender is fully
liable. All Wilson mobile antennas are 5.12 dBi or less in the
800 MHz band.
Recommended amplifi er installation locations are:
•
Under the seat
•
In the trunk
•
Under the dash
Install the low-profi le antenna 8-12 inches from where the cell phone or cellular
data card will be used.
Power the amplifi er through the ignition switch so the amplifi er is turned on and
off with the vehicle.
If the vehicle has a sunroof, it is important to separate the inside and outside
antennas by at least fi ve feet. This prevents the amplifi er from overloading or
oscillating.
