1. Place AP300 upside down on a soft flat surface.
2. Remove and discard the wall/ceiling mounting bracket if it is present.
3. Remove and discard the four rubber feet.
4. If the unit has white antennas, remove them and attach the black antennas provided.
5. Position the Hoffman bracket (ACC-AP300-BHE) onto the back of the AP300 with the four Hoffman
mounting screws facing downwards.
