Installation Of Radar Antenna - Whistler 3400 Installation Instructions Manual

INSTALLATION OF RADAR ANTENNA

General Information
The radar antenna is waterproof and designed to be mounted
at the front of your vehicle. In most vehicles the best mount-
ing location is directly below or behind the bumper. Other
locations which provide concealment and/or protection of the
antenna such as on the rear deck (next to the third brake
light) may be acceptable. Radar signals will pass through non-
metallic materials such as fiberglass and plastic,
however, be sure to mount the receiver away from any metal,
as it will block the receiver's antenna. Because the optimal
location for mounting the antenna varies by vehicle type, the
hardware supplied is designed to offer a wide variety of
mounting options. We suggest choosing the option that
enables the antenna to be scurely fastened and provides the
antenna window adequate rearward visibility.
NOTE: 3400 model "antenna" is the bubble area on the
case. All references to antenna in this manual for the 3400 will
be the bubble area.
NOTE:
Use of hardware that is not supplied or DRILLING
into the case will cause damage to the receiver and void the warranty.
Antenna Mounting Brackets
There are two types of mounting brackets for the antenna:
Large L (1) and Small L (2). The Large L bracket fastens to the
through the hole on the flange of the antenna and then tight-
en into the metal bracket (do not over tighten). The Large L
Bracket may be fastened to the antenna in a variety of posi-
tions as shown on page 8.
