To avoid interference, keep other wireless equipment 1 – 3 ft. (0.3 – 0.9 m) away from
your amplifier.
• Install the amplifier indoors.
• Make sure there is an AC (mains) outlet nearby.
• Place the amplifier on a shelf or mount it on a wall.
• For optimum performance, place the amplifier in a well-ventilated area.

104°F (40°C).
