1. GENERAL INFORMATION

1.1 Intended use

This product has been designed for permanent installation on mobile homes or camper trailers with a permissible
maximum speed of 150 km/h.
It is designed to automatically aim a vehicle-mounted antenna at a geostationary television satellite transmit-
ting directly to Europe. This requires the vehicle to be at standstill.
Power to the system must be supplied by a standard vehicle electric system with a rated voltage of 12/24 V DC.
Do not use a switching-mode power supply if the system is to be installed in a camper trailer. Using the equip-
ment for any other than its intended purpose is not permissible.
When the system is connected to the on-board electric system, a suitable fuse must be provided for it in the
on-board circuit.
The manufacturer accepts no liability for direct or indirect damages or for consequential damages to the system
itself, to battery systems, motor vehicles or other equipment or goods resulting from installation or wiring errors.
Please also observe the following instructions from the manufacturer:
• The system must only be installed on hard vehicle roofs which are sufficiently strong and inherently stable.
Observe all relevant and approved guidelines of the automotive industry.
• The product does not require any regular maintenance. Opening housings and enclosures is not permissible.
Inspection and maintenance may only be performed by a qualified professional.
• Do not wash your mobile home or camper trailer with the mounted satellite system in a single-bay or drive-
through car wash, and do not use a high-pressure cleaner.
• Any modification of the overall system by removing individual components or adding other components is not
permissible. Using parabolic antennas or LNBs other than the original parts is not permissible.
• The satellite system must be installed by a specialist workshop or qualified professional. If you encounter
any problems, or if you are unsure about anything, please contact the manufacturer or an authorised service
partner.
Retract the system during storms (wind exceeding 75 – 80 km/h; 8 Beaufort).
If the vehicle moves or is transported in reverse at speeds exceeding 30 km/h, especially when being transport-
ed by truck or train, the antenna must be secured against unintended unfolding by suitable means.
