Powering up a Wilson Amplifi er
For in-vehicle, fi rst connect the power
cable to the amplifi er input marked
“DC 12 V IN” and then insert the large
end into a 12 V DC power socket or
cigarette lighter outlet.
The amplifi er may remain on all the
time; however, leaving the amplifi er on
in a vehicle when it is not running can
discharge the battery in a day or two.
A good option is to power the amplifi er
through the ignition switch so that
the amplifi er turns off and on with the
vehicle.
For in-building, fi rst connect the
optional AC/DC power supply to the
amplifi er input labeled “DC 12 V IN”
and then into a wall outlet.
Carefully insert the power cable.
In-vehicle 12-volt DC power cable (included)
Warning: Use only a Wilson power
cable. Use of a non-Wilson product could
damage your equipment.

NOTE: The aluminum casing of a Wilson amplifi er will adjust very quickly to the
ambient temperature of its environment. For example, in the summer, when the
inside of a car can reach 140 degrees Fahrenheit, the amplifi er temperature may
be 150 degrees or higher. The casing will be hot to the touch, similar to a metal
door handle or a steering wheel. Such high temperatures will not damage the
amplifi er, nor do they pose a fi re risk to the vehicle. As recommended in these
instructions, install the amplifi er in a location with adequate ventilation, such as
under the seat, in the trunk or under the dashboard. Keep the area free of items
that could block air fl ow to the amplifi er.
Warning: Verify that both the outside
antenna and the adapter extension cable are
connected to the amplifi er before powering up
the amplifi er.
