Lowering Antenna to Travel Position -

Rotate antenna until pointer on rotating knob

aligns with pointer on ceiling plate.

Turn elevating crank (counterclockwise) in

“DOWN” direction until resistance is noted.

Antenna is now locked in travel position. Turn

amplifier power switch “OFF”.

Count the number of turns needed to crank the

antenna down to the roof of the unit (normally

about 13). Mark the final position of the crank

handle on the ceiling or the directional knob for

reference. Also mark the number of turns needed.

Use the mark and number as a reference when-

ever you lower the antenna.

SIGNAL AMPLIFIER

The amplifier power switch is located on the

video selection system panel in the video center

cabinet above the driver and passenger seats or

entertainment center cabinet.

To operate amplifier, turn on power switch.

A red indicator light will glow while the signal

amplifier is in use.

The TV jack plates are mounted in various lo-

cations throughout the coach. Some of these wall

plates are not readily visible and may be in one of

the following locations.

· In front overhead cabinet.

· In the optional entertainment center on the

outside of the coach.

· Behind the optional rear bedroom TV.

Checking Amplifier Performance

The TV signals available to an RV are entirely

dependent on its location in relation to the trans-

mitter. Signals may vary from strong to no usable

signal at all. We recommend that the TV system

be checked out in an area known to have good TV

reception.

To check the antenna amplifier, raise the an-

tenna, select a TV channel and rotate the antenna

for best picture. Then turn off the amplifier pow-

er switch. If the antenna amplifier is working

properly, the TV picture will now be degraded

(snowy). When you turn the switch back on, the

picture should again be sharp.

DIGITAL SATELLITE

TELEVISION SYSTEM -

Optional

The Digital Satellite Television System

allows you to receive TV programs directly from

satellite to your coach. The programs are trans-

Never leave the antenna partially

raised or partially lowered. This can

damage the crank mechanism gears.

Always raise the antenna straight up

or lower it completely into the travel

position.

Always align directional handle to

“DOWN” position before lowering.
