Installing the Antenna Units
· Attach the antenna to the inner glass surface of the rear window using double-sided
tape. Carefully check the installation location as the tape can only be stuck on once.
· If the surface temperature of the glass of the rear window is low, warm it by turning
on the power of the rear defogger.
A cold window glass surface will weaken the adhesive strength of the double-sided
tape.
Also, if installation inside the cabin is performed on a day with high humidity or when
it is raining, the high humidity level will weaken the adhesive strength of the double-
sided tape.
· Do not install the antenna in a location where it may obstruct the field of view during
driving, such as on the windshield.
Check the location where the antenna is to be
attached.Clean off any grease or dirt from the
installation location using the supplied glass
cleaner (Accessory B), clean the area with water
and allow to dry.
Clean the glass thoroughly as failure to
clean the glass can not only weaken the
adhesive strength of the double-sided
tape, but may also cause it to come loose.
Remove the protective strips from the antenna
parts and the back of the antenna unit.
Attach the double-sided tape of the antenna
parts and the antenna unit to the rear windshield
glass. Attach the double-sided tape by firmly
pressing down from the top. Secure cables
using the supplied clampers.
After attaching the antenna with the double-
sided tape, allow it to sit undisturbed for 24
hours. Take care not to apply force to the
antenna or allow it to get wet during this time.
Wire the antenna cable to TV tuner unit.

·Make sure to ground the unit to a negative 12V DC power supply.
· If your car's ignition does not come with an ACC position, connect the ignition wires
to a power source that can be turned on and off with the ignition key. If you connect
the ignition wire to a power source that receives a constant voltage supply, as with
battery wires, the battery may die.
· If the fuse blows, first make sure that the wires have not caused a short circuit, then
replace the old fuse with one with the same rating.
· After the unit is installed, check whether the brake lamps, blinkers, wipers, etc. on the
car are working properly.
· Thoroughly wipe away oil and other dirt from the installation surface.
Please avoid installation on uneven surfaces.
