WARNINGS!
Ñ An antenna of not more than 5dBd gain shall be used with the amplifier or the manufacturer’s warranty will be void. Use
of cellular amplifiers with antennae of higher gains is in violation of FCC regulations for which the offender will be fully
liable.
Ñ Ensure that the external antenna connected to the SG800 amplifier is mounted at least 0.5 meter away from any seating
position in the automobile to ensure that the FCC Maximum Possible Exposure (MPE) guidelines are satisfied. At a
distance of 0.5 meter from the externally mounted 5dBd antenna connected to the SG800, the uncontrolled MPE power
density will be 0.33mW/cm
2
(FCC guideline 0.55mW/ cm
2
).
Ñ Mounting a signal amplifier in the engine cavity or on the underside of the vehicle will void the manufacturer’s warranty.
Ñ Subjecting the amplifier to voltages greater than 30 Volts DC will damage the amplifier and void the manufacturers
warranty.
Ñ Any vehicle with an electrical system of greater than 30 Volts DC should use a step-down voltage regulator to bring the
voltage within the DC operating power range of the amplifier (10 to 30V dc).
Ñ Under no circumstances should the amplifier be powered up without a properly connected 50 ohm 800 MHz cellular
antenna or the amplifier may be damaged and the manufacturer’ warranty will be void.
It is recommended that only certified automotive installation technicians install this product in a
vehicle. Installation by any other person is at the risk of the vehicle owner and operator.
Installation
Selecting a Suitable Location To Mount The Signal Amplifier
Locate a suitable place to mount and conceal the signal amplifier. Suggested mounting locations include: under the dashboard, under a
seat, or in the trunk. For peak performance the signal amplifier should be mounted as close to the phone handset as possible. The
amplifier’s location should be easily accessible and mounted away from moving parts, as well as excessive heat and moisture.
