SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - IMPORTANT NOTES
Checks before commencing a journey
Before commencing a journey, the antenna must always be lowered into horizontal position (park
position). If the antenna has collided with a xed or movable object, check that it is still securely
attached.
As the antenna is subjected to vibration loads during driving, you should check at regular intervals,
depending on the frequency of driving, that the system is still securely attached and tighten any parts
that have worked loose.
The maximum permissible speed for vehicles with a receiver unit mounted on the roof is 130 km/h.
Lower the antenna if it will not be used for a long period. This makes the securing bolts more dif cult
to access (protection against theft).
Antenna in the park position whilst driving
In addition the instructions in the installation and operating manuals for these
devices and for the attachments and superstructures must be complied with at
all times!
Exceeding the normal vehicle height by failing to lower the antenna increases the
risk of accidents! The driver is responsible for the condition of the superstructure
and external ttings!
If stormy weather is expected, the turntable must always be moved to the park
position, otherwise both the CAP 910 and the vehicle may be damaged.
Safety precautions during operation
During operation of the turntable, make sure that no persons, in particular children,
are in the immediate vicinity of the turntable and that they cannot touch any
moving parts – crush hazard!
Always unplug the power supply during installation work.
The antenna must always be lowered into horizontal position (park position) while driving.
As a reminder, attach the sticker from the supplementary sheet “Lower the CAP 910
antenna while driving” where it can easily be seen by the person operating the ignition
switch.
The antenna will be lowered within 12 seconds of the ignition being switched on (if the
unit is in stand-by mode or the UFS 940sw is switched off). Otherwise the control unit
that is in use is lowered immediately.
Important: Lowering the antenna can take up to 30 seconds after the ignition is switched on!
