Mounting the ODU
The ODU is required for satellite communication when the phone is used
inside a vehicle. It should be mounted on the roof of the vehicle with an
unobstructed view of the sky. You can attach it to the roof of the vehicle
using magnets or a ski rack type mount, or permanently bolt it in place.
Note
Check with your service provider for available ODU mounting
options.
If you mount the ODU using magnets, check the surface of the magnets
before you put the ODU on the car. The ODU is not designed for high speed
driving, so use moderate speeds if it is mounted on the roof. The metal
surfaces on the underside of the ODU can get hot. Use caution when you
take it off the roof.
Be sure to route the ODU cable through the weather strip without pinching
it. Use only the ODU cables that come with the car kit when connecting the
ODU and do not cut or modify the ODU cable.
Caution
It is not recommended that you mount the ODU on the trunk or
a lower surface. Performance could be affected by the shadow
effect of the car.
