UNPACKING AND PREPARATION

The CAP 910 must not be carried on the satellite dish, since this can cause the dish to distort.

Keep the device in its cardboard box for transport on to the vehicle		roof. Only take the turntable out
of	its packaging when it is on the vehicle roof. Retain the original	packaging, as if it is necessary
to	send the unit for repair transport damage cannot be ruled out and the manufacturer accepts

no liability for possible damage.

Loosen the six fastening screws (width A/F: 10 mm). Carefully lift the turntable off the mounting plate and place it on the two prepared wooden supports. Make sure that the cables are not crushed where they emerge from the underside of the turntable.

SELECTING THE INSTALLATION LOCATION

Essentially, the cable lengths of the MobiSet 4 CAP 910 components allow you a free choice of installation location on your caravan or motor home.

However, you should take note of the following points:

•Before installation, you should find out whether the operating manual for your vehicle permits the fitting of non-vehicle-specific parts or what requirements need to be met in order to do so.

•For direct satellite reception, there should be no obstructions between the antenna and the satellite. Therefore, make sure that the antenna is not shadowed by roof extensions such as luggage racks,

air conditioning units, solar panels, etc. The problem of shadowing applies also to the selection of the parking place for your vehicle. For interference-free satellite reception, the antenna needs a projected free view to the South at an angle of between 15° and 55° (depending on location) to the horizontal.
