The antenna retracts automatically when the ignition is switched on. Reactivating the antenna requires the "Oyster® TV" Premium system to be rebooted (switch the system off and back on). Ignition / terminal 15...
2. INSTALLATION PREPARATION 2.1. Preparation Before starting the installation, ensure that the roof of your vehicle is sufficiently sturdy. Ensure that the permis- sible roof load of your vehicle is not exceeded when installing the system and accessing the roof. If the roof is not strong enough, or if you are in any doubt, attach a 3-mm sheet-metal panel of 100 x 100 cm to the outer skin of the roof to improve stability.

3. INSTALLATION a) Fabricate a hole of 20 to 30 mm in diameter in the roof for the wiring feed-through. Threaded elbow ø 20-30 mm b) Route the wiring tidily on the roof of the vehicle e.g. using a piece of wiring trunking and guide the wiring coming out of the threaded elbow fitting downwards to the control panel.

3. INSTALLATION Do not tighten the union nut of the elbow fitting before having adjusted the length of the cable on the roof. Sealing the roof gland Sikaflex on screws Sikaflex Adjust cable length around edges on roof Important: After allowing sealant to dry, test for waterproof seal.
3. INSTALLATION 3.3 Power supply 1. A sufficient power supply of the system must be ensured a) The system must be connected to the 12-V or 24-V onboard electric system. b) The minimum cross-section of the wires connecting the satellite system to the power supply is 2.5 mm². For wiring lengths above 6 meters, a cross-section of 4.0 mm²...

3. INSTALLATION 3.5 Safety circuit To prevent damage from driving with the external unit unfolded, the black cable of the FeatureBox' power supply must be connected to terminal 15. A line connected to terminal 15 is live when the ignition is switched on and carries no voltage when the ignition is switched off.
4. REMOVAL 4.1 Removing the system The removal of the exterior unit requires a 13-mm open-end spanner. The supply line does not need to be re- moved. Proceed as follows: • Remove the four M8 nuts securing the base plate to the mounting plate. Lift off the system. •...
