Connect the power cable from the DC plug-in power
supply to the Signal Booster marked “6 V DC” and insert
the large end into DC power socket (the vehicle power
adapter outlet).
The Signal Booster may remain on all the time.
However, leaving the Signal Booster on in a
vehicle when it is not running can discharge
or drain the battery in a day or two. Switch the
power supply off when not in use.
A good option is to power the Signal Booster
through the ignition switch so the Signal Booster
is turned on and off with the vehicle.
An available option to do this with is the
Hardwire Kit from Wilson Electronics.
# 859923.
IMPORTANT: Do not power up the Signal
Booster unless antenna cables are attached
to Signal Booster.

Understanding the Signal Booster Lights
The power light will turn green when the Signal
Booster is successfully powered up. When the 800
MHz or 1900 MHz lights are lit green, the Signal
Booster is amplifying the outside signal.
If one or both frequency lights turn red, oscillation
is occurring and the Signal Booster has powered
down on the frequency with the red light to prevent
oscillation. The Outside Antenna needs to be
moved farther from the Inside Antenna. Move the
Outside Antenna on the roof of the car to the rear
of the car, but at least 8-12 inches from the rear or
side windows. Disconnect power from the Signal
Booster and reconnect power. This resets the
Signal Booster.
If the lights are now green, the Signal Booster is
working properly. If the red light is still on, move the
antenna farther away and repeat the process.
Always use a magnet-mount or roof-mount antenna.
Do not use a glass-mount antenna, as oscillation
may cause continuous shut-down of the Signal
Booster.
An amber light in either the 800 MHz or 1900 MHz
position indicates overload from the cell tower. The
Signal Booster has temporarily shut down and will
automatically reset when overload is no longer
detected.
