Truck: Cable routed into side door.
______ Step 2: Mount Inside Antenna Identify a place to mount the in-vehicle antenna, either on the side of the seat or on the dash and mount. The location should be at least 18 inches but no more than 36 inches from where the cell phone device will be used. Use the Velcro® adhesive strip/adhesive strip provided and attach to desired location.
______ Step 3: Connect Outside Antenna Cable to Booster Connect the cable from the outside antenna to the outside antenna port on the booster. NOTE: Bracket can be used to fasten booster in a specific location if desired.
______ Step 4: Connect Inside Antenna Cable to Booster Connect the cable from the inside antenna to the inside antenna port on the booster.
______ Step 5: Connect Power Supply To Booster Connect the power supply cord to the end of the booster, labeled “Power”. NOTE: Do NOT connect the power to the signal booster until you have connected both the inside and outside antennas. Power Supply Plug the power adapter into vehicle’s 12V DC power supply.

______ Light Patterns Solid Green This indicates that your booster is functioning properly and there are no issues with installation. Blinking Red, Then Solid Green This indicates that one or more of the booster bands has reduced power due to a feedback loop condition called oscillation. This is a built in safety feature to prevent harmful interference with a nearby cell tower. If you are already experiencing the desired signal boost, then no further adjustments are necessary.
______ Troubleshooting FIXING BLINKING OR SOLID RED ISSUES This section is only applicable if the booster is red or blinking red and you are not experiencing the desired signal boost. 1 Unplug the booster’s power supply. 2 Relocate the inside and outside antenna further from each other. The objective is to increase the separation distance between them, so that they will not create this feedback condition discussed before. 3 Plug power supply back in. 4 Monitor the indicator light on your booster.
