Section # 1 WARNINGS!

∇ Antennas must be mounted a MINIMUM distance of 20 cm (7.87 inches) away from any person. Each antenna must be

separated in a vertical plane, (above and below each other) a minimum of 9 feet with a wall or ceiling, made of metal,

stone, concrete, or solid fiberglass separation between the antennas. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES CAN AN

EXTERIOR ANTENNA BE INSTALLED INDOORS. External and internal antennas CANNOT be located in the same

area.

∇ When selecting a location for the interior antenna a minimum distance of 12 feet (3.64m) from the booster is required.

Positioning the antennas too close together may result in unit failure and void the warranty. The external antenna

must be installed a minimum of 12 inches above the roofline of a building with a clear view of the surrounding

area.

∇ The power supply must be plugged into a 120 VAC electrical outlet that is a minimum of 1-ampere circuit breaker.

∇ Under no circumstances should the booster be powered up without a properly connected 50 ohm 800/ 1900 MHz dual band

cellular antenna connected to both the internal and external connections or the unit may be damaged, resulting in the

manufacturer’ warranty being voided.

∇ For optimum performance and compatibility with PCS cellular service provider requirements, use of antennas of higher gain

than 3dBi is in violation of FCC regulations for which the offender will be fully liable, and void the warranty.

∇ Do not combine the external antenna cable with another coaxial cable. ***It is recommended that only qualified or informed

installation technicians install this product in a building. Installation by any other person is at the risk of the owner and

operator.

∇ Use caution to avoid drilling through or near electrical, water or gas lines.

∇ Do not mount the booster or its associated wiring in a location that may contain hazardous materials or materials

that are corrosive or explosive or that contain any type of volatile vapors.

∇ Do not attempt to ground the external antenna. It is designed with its own interior ground system.

∇ The interior antenna requires a ground plane. The interior magnetic mount antenna should be mounted on any type of

metal surface that allows for the antenna base attach to. You must use a metal plate of at least 4 square feet in size for the

proper ground plane.
