The satellite unit is equipped with an automatic positioning unit. This automatic
positioning unit ensures that the antennas are precisely aligned to the desired
satellites.
Operation is menu-controlled (TV screen) using the remote control.
Setting up the unit:
Switch on the television.
Use the mains switch to switch on the receiver. When the green LED on
the receiver's infra-red receptor lights up, the receiver is ready to operate.
Switch on the receiver with the remote control. The satellite antenna repo-
sitions itself out of the park position and into search mode.
When the system finds the satellite, the selected TV programme appears auto-
matically.
5.9 Awning (special equipment)
Advantages of the awning The advantages of an awning are:
z The awning provides shade.
z The awning creates a covered vestibule and thus expands the space.
z The vehicle thus becomes more homelike.
Putting up the awning:
Use the manual crank to open up the awning (Fig. 40,1).
Set up the brackets (Fig. 40,2) when the awning is open.
Z The vehicle must be still during the satellite search. Do not walk through
the vehicle.
Z Satellite reception is only possible, when the antenna is positioned in direct
line of sight of the chosen satellite and the view is not blocked in any way.
Z Also read the manufacturer's instruction manual.
Z Retract the awning in strong wind, rain or snow.
Z In the case of light rain, shorten one of the support legs so that water can
run off.
Z Only retract the awning when the fabric is dry. When the awning must be
retracted while the fabric is still wet: Extend the awning as soon as pos-
sible, in order to dry out the fabric.
Z Before retracting, remove leaves and coarse dirt from the awning.
Z Only use the awning for protection against the sun.
Z Also read the manufacturer's instruction manual.
