Connect the power cable from the DC plug-in power
supply to the Signal Booster marked “6 V DC” and
insert the large end into DC power socket (the vehicle
power adapter outlet).
The Signal Booster may remain on all the
time. However, leaving the Signal Booster
on in a vehicle when it is not running can
discharge or drain the battery in a day or
two. Switch the power supply off when not
in use.
A good option is to power the Signal
Booster through the ignition switch so the
Signal Booster is turned on and off with the
vehicle.
IMPORTANT: Do not power up the Signal
Booster unless antenna cables are attached
to Signal Booster.
ON/OFF SWITCH
NOTE: The aluminum casing of a Wilson Signal Booster will adjust very quickly to the
ambient temperature of its environment. For example, in the summer, when the inside
of a car can reach 140 degrees Fahrenheit, the Signal Booster temperature may be 150
degrees or higher. The casing will be hot to the touch, similar to a metal door handle or a
steering wheel. Such high temperatures will not damage the Signal Booster, nor do they
pose a fire risk to the vehicle. As recommended in these instructions, install the Signal
Booster in a location with adequate ventilation, such as under the seat or under the
dashboard. Keep the area free of items that could block air flow to the Signal Booster.
Warnings and Recommendations
Warning: In a wireless installation, do not plug the Signal Booster directly into the cell
phone or cellular data card using an antenna adapter. It will damage the
Signal Booster, cell phone or cellular data card.
Warning: Do not plug in the DC power supply until the outside and inside antenna
cables are attached to the Signal Booster.
Warning: RF Safety: The inside antenna must be installed with a separation of at least
8 inches from all persons and must not be located in conjunction with any
other antenna or Signal Booster.
Warning: RF Safety: The outside antenna must be installed with a separation of at
least 20 inches from any of the vehicle’s occupants or nearby persons and
must not be located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
Signal Booster. All roof mount antennas should be centrally located on the
roof of the vehicle. Mirror-mount antennas should be mounted as high above
the roof line as possible and leave at least 20 inches of separation from any
persons near or around the vehicle.
Warning: Use only the power supply provided in this package. The power supply must
be 6 V DC Output.
An available option to do this with is the
Hardwire Kit from Wilson Electronics.
