C) Mounting The Dab Aerial - Renkforce DAB+ RF-DAB-CAR1 Operating Instructions Manual

c) Mounting the DAB Aerial

Only use the included DAB aerial. It is an active aerial. If other aerials are used,
these aerials and the car receiver may be damaged.
For adhesive installation, a minimum temperature of approx. 15°C is required.
Clean the adhesive areas with a suitable cleaner before installation (e.g. cleaning
alcohol).
Do not glue the aerial in the area of metal-vaporised windshield parts or close to
heating wires. This could have a negative effect on reception.
Do not attach the aerial in the field of view of the driver. It must not impair the
driver's view.
When selecting the mounting site, observe the length of the aerial cable. It must
reach as far as the installation location of the car receiver.
The DAB aerial and connection cable never must be installed or placed in the
trigger area of an airbag.
• Specify the installation position for the DAB aerial. The aerial should be mounted horizontally
in the upper side area of the inside of the windscreen. In order to ensure proper reception,
keep a distance of about 5 cm the two reception wires and any metal parts, such as the car
body, window frame, etc.
• Remove the protective films and glue in the aerial so that the cable exit points at the
windscreen frame.
• After gluing in, the aerial should not be subjected to any mechanical stress for 24 hours.
• Lay the connection cable to the installation location of the car receiver.
