*NOTE: Running high-amperage appliances
like the TV and DVD on inverter power
can drain the house battery rapidly
unless the chassis engine is running so
the alternator can charge the batteries.
Further Information
See manufacturer’s information provided in
your InfoCase for more information.
TV ANTENNA
The TV antenna on your motor home can be
easily raised, rotated a full 360
°
and lowered
from inside the vehicle by simply turning a crank
or directional handle. A built-in signal amplifier
designed to strengthen signals, is controlled by a
power switch built into the optional video
selector panel or on a wall plate assembly.
See the antenna manufacturer’s operation,
care and maintenance information in your
InfoCase.
Raising Antenna to Operating Position
Turn elevating crank clockwise in “UP”
direction until some resistance to turning is noted
(about 13 turns). Antenna is now in operating
position.
Turn amplifier power switch “ON” to receive TV
signal.
Rotating Antenna for Best Picture
Make sure antenna is in the “UP” position.
Pull down on directional handle using both hands
until it disengages ceiling plate and rotate for best
picture and sound on TV set.
Lowering Antenna to Travel Position
Rotate antenna until pointer on directional
handle aligns with pointer on ceiling plate.
Turn elevating crank (counter-clockwise) in
“DOWN” direction until resistance is noted
(about 13 turns). Antenna is now locked in travel
position. Turn amplifier power switch “OFF”.
TV SIGNAL AMPLIFIER
The TV signal amplifier is built into the
antenna and can be turned on or off with a power
switch on the video selection system in the video
center cabinet above the driver and passenger
seats or entertainment center cabinet.
A red indicator light will glow when the
switch is on and the signal amplifier is active.
WARNING
Never allow the antenna to touch
electrical power lines or any other
electrical wires.
CAUTION
Always align directional handle to
“DOWN” position before lowering.
Never partially raise or lower antenna.
Antenna must be raised fully up into
operating position or lowered fully down
into travel position.
