Place the external unit on the mounting plate with the connector housing and the cable outlet of the external unit
facing towards the rear of the vehicle. Screw down the 4 nuts and put on the small covers. An installation in any other
position is not permitted and will cause the warranty to be invalidated.
When the mounting plate is positioned correctly, the LNB and the connecting cable outlet must point towards the rear of
the vehicle.
Attaching the threaded elbow fitting (cable feed-through)
The threaded elbow fitting on the roof must be located with the cable inlet pointing to the rear of the vehicle,
thus protecting it against splash water.
To make the routing of the cables inside the vehicle easier, the distance between the elbow fitting and the control panel
and the receiver should be as short as possible.
a) Fabricate a hole of 20 to 30 mm diameter in the roof for the cable feed-through.
Elbow connector
b) Route the cable tidily on the roof of the vehicle (e.g. using a cable duct) and
guide the cable coming out of the threaded elbow fitting downwards to the
control panel.
c) The small mounting plate of the threaded elbow fitting is bonded to the roof
of the vehicle using commercially available body sealing compound and is
then secured to the roof with screws. Please use a special cleaning agent to
clean the mounting plate and roof as recommended by the manufacturer of a
highly adhesive body sealing compound (e.g. Sikaflex, Teroson 1K-Pur, Würth
Klebt und Dichtet). Once the cleaner has dried off, apply the sealing
compound to the underside of the mounting plate. After fitting the mounting
plate, secure it to the roof using the 4 supplied self-tapping screws.
