ANTENNA
The AccuMap Sport has a remov-
able antenna that folds over the dis-
play when the unit is not in use. To

open it, simply lift on an edge of the
antenna and raise it to the desired
height.
Two thumbscrews on the antenna's
hinge let you adjust the tension on
the antenna. This helps keep the
antenna in the desired position. The
thumbscrews work in opposite direc-
tions. To tighten the right thumb-
screw, rotate it away from the dis-
play. To tighten the left thumbscrew,
rotate it toward the display.
Caution - Always make certain the
left thumbwheel is tight when using
the AccuMap Sport. The connector
for the antenna is inside the left
thumbwheel. If it isn't tight, a poor
connection can occur. This can pre-
vent the unit from operating properly,
if at all.
To remove the antenna, simply
loosen the thumbwheels until they
won't turn. Carefully remove the an-
tenna from the unit by pulling it
straight out. If you feel any resis-
tance,
make
cer tain
the
thumbwheels are at the end of their
travel. Don't force any parts!
You can see the antenna's connector inside the left thumbwheel once it's
removed from the unit. When reinstalling the antenna, align the left side of
the antenna first, then slowly thread the left thumbwheel until it engages
the connector. This will require two full turns of the thumbwheel. After
you've done this, thread the right side of the antenna by rotating the right
thumbwheel. Remember to rotate the right thumbwheel in the opposite
direction from the left. Tighten the thumbwheels to get the desired tension
on the antenna. Caution - do not overtighten the thumbwheels.
