Be sure to give the manuals to the customer and 
explain how to use the product. The customer 
also needs to know the following:

• Keep the radome installed on the antenna at 

all times. The radome protects the antenna’s 

internal moving parts from wind, rain, and 

debris.

• The owner needs the red Activation Card to 

activate the receiver. The receiver must be 

activated before it can receive satellite 

programming.

• The antenna must have a clear view of the 

southern sky to receive satellite TV. Common 

causes of blockage are trees, buildings, 

bridges, overpasses, and mountains. The 

TracVision R6ST system will not work inside 

a garage.

• Heavy rain or snow might temporarily 

interrupt reception.

• To ensure optimum reception, keep 

DewShield

 set to AUTO. The DewShield 

electronic dew elimination system prevents 

dew from forming on the antenna (moisture 

weakens satellite signals).

• The antenna should be cleaned regularly. Dirt 

buildup on the radome can affect satellite TV 

reception.

• The owner needs to register the system for 

product warranty validation. Refer to the 

Product Registration Form for details or visit: 

www.kvh.com/register

.

• The vehicle must be located within the 

selected satellite’s coverage area in order to 

receive its satellite TV signals. To view 

satellite coverage maps, visit:

• Refer to the 

User’s Guide

 for complete 

operation instructions.
