Statement 1030
Follow these safety instructions when installing your antenna.
•Plan your installation procedure carefully and completely before you begin.
•If you are installing an antenna for the first time, for your own safety as well as others, seek
professional assistance. Consult your dealer, who can explain which mounting method to use for the
location where you intend to install the antenna.
•Select your installation site with safety, as well as performance, in mind. Remember that electric
power cables and telephone lines look alike. For your safety, assume that any line is an electric
power line until determined otherwise.
•Call your local power company or building maintenance organization if you are unsure about cables
close to your mounting location.
•When installing your antenna, do not use a metal ladder. Do dress properly: shoes with rubber soles
and heels, rubber gloves, and a long sleeved shirt or jacket.
•If an accident or emergency occurs with the power lines, call for qualified emergency help
immediately.
Installation Notes
Because antennas transmit and receive radio signals, they are susceptible to RF obstructions and
common sources of interference that can reduce throughput and range of the device to which they are
connected. Follow these guidelines to ensure the best possible performance:
•Mount the antenna to utilize its propagation characteristics. This antenna is designed to radiate
energy in a somewhat narrow beam from the front of the antenna. It should be aimed into the
intended coverage area.
