5.1.3 Selecting the Installation Location
Essentially, the cable lengths and components that are supplied allow you a free choice of installation location on your
caravan or motor home.
When selecting the installation location, take note of the following points:
Before installation, nd out whether the operating manual for your vehicle permits the tting of non-vehicle-specic
parts or what requirements need to be met in order to do so.
For direct satellite reception, there should be no obstructions between the antenna and the satellite. Therefore,
make sure that the antenna is not shadowed by roof attachments such as luggage racks, air conditioning units, solar
panels, etc.
The problem of shadowing applies also when selecting a parking place for your vehicle. For interference-free satellite
reception, the antenna needs a free view to the south at an angle of between 15° and 55° (depending on location) to
the horizontal.
When selecting the installation location, take into account the range of movement of the turntable, see Chapter 10,
p.32. There must not be any attachments on the roof that would obstruct this range of movement (risk of collision).
To be on the safe side, keep slightly more than the required area free. This allows for an easier installation and any
subsequent dismantling.
Choose an installation position on the roof that is as horizontal as possible or only slightly sloping, depending on the
location of the vehicle, since roof inclinations greater than 5° may lead to problems when searching for the satellite.
To ensure secure adhesion, the height difference of the roof curve must not be more than 1cm over a length of 2m,
as otherwise the gap between the roof and the mounting plate would be too great to be lled by the adhesive sealant.
As the vehicle is constantly subjected to vibration loads during travel, the roof below the antenna unit is also subject
to signicant loads. Please note, given the nature and capacity of your vehicle roof, that the weight of the antenna
unit is approx. 19kg, see the operating manual for the vehicle. In case of doubt, consult a qualied specialist dealer
or your vehicle’s manufacturer.
The roof duct provides a watertight seal through which the three cables (2 x coaxial cables, one power supply cable)
are fed into the interior of the vehicle directly underneath the turntable. If you prefer a different method of laying the
cables, you can run them out from the rear of the turntable via the channel provided in the mounting plate. The cables
must then be run along the roof of the vehicle in a protective cable duct and through a separate roof duct HDZ100
(neither of them are included in the scope of delivery).
The HDZ100 roof duct is available as an accessory under part number 20410032 from specialist dealers.
NOTICE
Risk of malfunction or material damage, in particular due to the absence of a blade fuse in the cable!
Protect the positive wire (red) of the power supply cable by using a 15A blade fuse.
The fuse must be installed by a specialist.
If the fuse is blown, replace it by a fuse of the same rating (15A).
Eliminate the cause of the fault.
