When handling the antenna cables, you must
follow these basic rules:
• Never pull on the cable connectors; pull only on
the cable.
• Never run cables in a manner that interferes
with the driver's ability to safely operate the
vehicle.
• Tighten the connectors and ensure that the
cables don’t rattle loose.
5. Safety
• If you are installing an antenna for the first time
or unsure about how to install your antenna,
obtain the help of a professional installer.
• Carefully survey the installation site before
installation to locate secure handholds,
dangerous conditions, and the safest and most
convenient placement for ladders if necessary.
• The antenna may not be used as a climbing or
pulling device.
• Considerations must be taken when mounting
the antenna so that people do not hang or pull
on it.
• When installing your antenna, remember:
1. Do not install on a wet or windy day or
when there is lightning or thunder in the
area.
2. Wear shoes with rubber soles and heels,
protective clothing (long-sleeve shirt or
jacket), and rubber gloves.
3. Avoid installation while under the
influence of drugs, alcohol, or
medication.
