• The antenna should be installed on the
passenger side for safety.
• Use cord clamper (Accessory 6) to
secure the antenna to the pillar at several
locations.
• The direction of the antenna film
(Accessory 4) changes depending on
whether the film antenna is installed on
the right side or left side.
• Separate the antenna film (Accessory 4)
from the ceramic line (black part) at the
top of the front glass by 150 mm.
Also, place it about 70 mm inside the
ceramic line at the side end of the front
glass. (where the earth sheet of the
amplifier can be pasted on the metal part
of the front pillar)
• Separate from other antennas by at least
100 mm.
• Do not paste the amplifier (Accessory 5)
on the ceramic line (black part) around
the front glass. Because there is not
enough adhesion.
