Do's and Don'ts - Antenna (cont'd)
DO NOT...
• DO NOT mount the antenna to a sloped surface.
• DO NOT tilt the antenna greater than 45° once the restraints are
removed.
• DO NOT paint the antenna.
• DO NOT use KVH's roof-mount kit if the roof is greater than
thick.
• DO NOT install the antenna on an 18-wheel, commercial truck.
The excessive vibration experienced on these vehicles will impair
the antenna's ability to track the satellite.
• DO NOT mount the antenna sideways on the vehicle's roof. Be
sure the connector is facing the rear of the vehicle. The front of
the antenna is aerodynamically designed for the least noise and
best moisture protection.
• DO NOT use abrasive cleaners, volatile solvents (such as methyl
alcohol), or compounds that react with plastic when cleaning the
antenna.
