Package Contents Drive Reach Signal Booster & Bracket 1 Outside Antenna Inside Antenna Power Supply 13 in. & 18 in.
STEP 1 Select Mounting Location & Assemble the Outside Antenna Once you have determined the best location for the outside antenna, insert cable through mast extension(s) then through side exit adapter. Outside Antenna 13 in. mast 13 in. mast cable from Outside Antenna ca ble run cable through Mast Extension(s) Mast Extension ca ble 13 in. mast run cable through Mast Extension(s) 18 in.
(STEP 1 cont.) Use thread locker (provided) to thread points and screw into place. Outside Antenna NOTE: Be sure the outside antenna is the correct height before applying thread locker. NOTE: When adding the side exit adapter hold the outside antenna vertically and screw the adapter from the bottom up. This reduces cable twisting.
STEP 2 Mounting the Outside Antenna If the vehicle does not have built-in mounting points, a 3-way mount is included that will work on vehicles with mirror rails. NOTE: The cable is strong enough that it may be shut in most vehicle doors without damaging the cable.
(STEP 2 cont.) Mast Extension If installing with the spring, assemble the outside antenna with spring as shown. Side Exit Adapter NOTE: Do not use antenna spring with 2 mast extension.
Identify a place to mount the inside 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 cellular device will be used. Use the Velcro® adhesive strip/adhesive strip provided and attach to desired location.
STEP 4 Connect Coax Cables to Booster Connect the cable from the outside antenna to the port labeled “Outside Antenna” on the booster and connect the cable from the inside antenna to the port labeled “Inside Antenna” on the booster.
STEP 5 Connect Power Supply to Booster Connect the 12V power supply cord to the end of the booster, labeled "12V DC" then plug the power adapter into vehicle’s 12V DC power supply. Push switch to ON position. If your Drive Reach is working correctly, the light on the booster will be green. Use only the power supply provided in this package.
Booster Light Patterns SOLID GREEN This indicates that your Drive Reach booster is functioning properly and there are no issues with installation. SOLID RED Band has shutoff. This is due to a feedback loop condition called oscillation. This is a built in safety feature that causes a band to shut off to prevent harmful interference with a nearby cell tower. Refer to Troubleshooting section.
(Booster Light Patterns cont.) NOTE: The signal booster can be reset by disconnecting and reconnecting the power supply. After troubleshooting you must initiate a new power cycle by disconnecting and then reconnecting power to the booster.
Troubleshooting FIXING BLINKING OR RED LIGHT 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 R elocate 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 and ensure switch is in ON position.
(Troubleshooting cont.) FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS How can I contact customer support? Customer Support can be reached Monday through Friday by calling 1-866-294-1660, or through our support site at support.weboost.com. Why do I need to create distance between the outside antenna and inside antenna? Antennas connected to a booster create spheres of signal. When these spheres overlap, a condition called oscillation occurs.
Safety Guidelines Use only the power supply provided in this package. Use of a non-weBoost product may damage your equipment. Connecting this signal booster directly to the cell phone with use of an adapter will damage the cell phone. RF Safety Warning: Any antenna used with this device must be located at least 8 inches from all persons. AWS Warning: The Outside Antenna must be installed no higher than 10 meters (31’9”) above ground. This is a CONSUMER device.
