An antenna of not more than 5dBd gain shall be used with the amplifier or the manufacturers warranty will be void. Use of cellular amplifiers with antennae of higher gains is in violation of FCC regulations for which the offender will be fully liable. Ensure that the external antenna connected to the SG800 amplifier is mounted at least 0.5 meter away from any seating position in the automobile to ensure that the FCC Maximum Possible Exposure (MPE) guidelines are satisfied. At a distance of 0.5 meter from the externally mounted 5dBd antenna connected to the SG800, the uncontrolled MPE power density will be 0.33mW/cm2 (FCC guideline 0.55mW/ cm2). Mounting a signal amplifier in the engine cavity or on the underside of the vehicle will void the manufacturers warranty. Subjecting the amplifier to voltages greater than 30 Volts DC will damage the amplifier and void the manufacturers warranty. Any vehicle with an electrical system of greater than 30 Volts DC should use a step-down voltage regulator to bring the voltage within the DC operating power range of the amplifier (10 to 30V dc). Under no circumstances should the amplifier be powered up without a properly connected 50 ohm 800 MHz cellular antenna or the amplifier may be damaged and the manufacturer warranty will be void. It is recommended that only certified automotive installation technicians install this product in a vehicle. Installation by any other person is at the risk of the vehicle owner and operator. Installation Selecting a Suitable Location To Mount The Signal Amplifier Locate a suitable place to mount and conceal the signal amplifier. Suggested mounting locations include: under the dashboard, under a seat, or in the trunk. For peak performance the signal amplifier should be mounted as close to the phone handset as possible. The amplifiers location should be easily accessible and mounted away from moving parts, as well as excessive heat and moisture. Copyright 2002, Seamless Group, Inc., All rights reserved.

. Typical Installation For Under The Seat Mounting 1. For safety, disconnect the vehicles negative - battery terminal to remove power from the vehicle. 2. Drill holes and mount the signal amplifier (ITEM 1) in the selected location. 3. Connect the coloured striped black wire of the supplied 2 Meter (78) power cable (ITEM 3) for the signal amplifier to a positive connection on the vehicles electrical system. Choose a 10 to 30 Volt DC circuit that is: fuse protected; and ignition switched.
(Often referred to as the Accessory output) 4. Attach the solid black wire of the supplied 2 Meter (78) power cable (ITEM 3) to a vehicle electrical ground point. 5. Attach one end of the antenna cable*1 to the antenna. The other end is connected to the cellular phone handset via a cradle or an RF output cable*1 to the signal amplifiers ANTENNA output connector. Use the supplied FME to TNC adapters (ITEM 4 or 5) if necessary. 6. Connect the amplifiers PHONE input connector to the cellular phone handset via a cradle or an RF output cable using the provided 1.5 Meter (59) RF cable (ITEM 2) and adapter (ITEM 4 or 5) if necessary. 7. Reconnect the vehicles negative - Battery terminal. Limited Warranty Seamless Group Inc. warrants that this product is free from any defects in material or workmanship for a period of one year.
