7.2.3 Start transmission
Normally when starting the transmission, it will take approx. two

For initial start-up and after long storage, see below.
Make sure nobody is standing close to the radar antenna when it
starts to rotate after the transmission is activated!

up the antenna
However:
) Starting up the first time after installation or after long storage (6
months), the antenna will need an extra 20 minutes to warm up, so
when the count-down of 120 seconds are finished, the radar must be
left in Standby mode for the extra 20 minutes it takes for the antenna
warm up properly. This way you will contribute to the lifetime of the
magnetron in the radar antenna.
