To Prepare the Carryout antenna for travel or storage:
1. Unplug the Carryout antenna at the cigarette plug.
2. Unplug your satellite receiver(s).
3. Disconnect the coax cable for any receivers connected to the antenna.
4. Disconnect any coax cable connected to the Carryout base.
5. Coil the cables to make storage easier.
6. Unplug the quick disconnect power from the base of the antenna.
7. Coil the Power cable for easy storage.
Note : The Carryout antenna is designed to be maintenance free. However, it is a good idea to
clean the dome from time to time with a soft cloth, water and dish soap.
Warning : Painting the Carryout dome voids the warranty, degrades signal strength and may
cause damage to the Carryout antenna.

Connecting the Carryout to the Cable TV entry port on your RV:
Generally, the port on the side of an RV is designed for Cable TV and the cable from this port runs
through the wall plate for the over-the-air antenna or through a video distribution system.
Satellite signals will not pass through these circuits. The only thing that can be between the Carryout
antenna and the satellite receiver is coax. Therefore it is important to make sure that the cable from
the external port by-passes everything and runs directly to the satellite receiver.
