Step by step installation Step 1: mount the outside antenna a. Choose right position Find the strongest signal position in the possible install locations by read your cell phone signal bar;
30cm away from any other metallic objects;
100cm away from any windows;
b. Mount the antenna pole;
Step 1: The powerful outside antenna captures a voice and data signal, and transfer it to the booster;
Step 2: The booster receives the signal, amplifies it and rebroadcasts it by inside antenna. Step 3: Your mobile devices get a better signal, never experience dropped calls or slow data speed.

Please switch off the adapter when you leave the car, in case the battery of the vehicle is used up. Note2: Dont cover the booster body with anything, in case the power dissipation make the booster too high temperature. Booster will shut down when the temperature is too high itself. Note3: Use only the power supply provided by SolidRF, any other products non-approved by SolidRF or self-made power cable may damage the booster. Note4: Troubleshooting Properly: The lights on the front panel indicate the condition of the booster. Every time the booster is powered on, all of the lights will be light on in green color for around 2 seconds and then lights off, this means the booster pass the self check and in good condition;
Wrong condition: If any of the lights flashing in green light, than means the isolation between the outside antenna and inside antenna is lower than it should be, and self oscillate occurred. You must switch off the booster and check the outside antenna and inside antenna immediately. Make sure you have followed this installation recommended, and check every thing carefully. If you cant fix the problem please contact the technician or our distributor. Technical specification Cellular

Warning: Unauthorized antennas, cables, and/or coupling devices are prohibited by FCC regulations. Please contact FCC for details: 1-888-CALL-FCC. Warning: Outside antenna orientation must be back side of inside antenna is to prevent the indoor antenna receiving the signal emitted by outside antenna. Otherwise it will cause self-oscillation of booster. Warning: RF safety, any antenna used with this device must be located at 20 cm (8 inches) away from persons or by bystanders. Warning: It will damage the mobile device and the booster if connect them with a cable directly. Warning: Use the power supply provided by SolidRF only. Other power supplies may cause damage of the booster. Warning: Antenna installation is restricted to 10 meters or less height above ground, even if the antenna is installed inside when used with a mobile device that operates in the 1710-1755 MHz band. Violation of this requirement may subject the owner of the booster to potential FCC enforcement actions. Warning: Never point the front of a directional antenna toward the inside antenna. Verify that both the outside antenna and the inside antenna are connected to the booster before powering up the booster. RF Exposure: The manufacturers rated output power of this equipment is for single carrier operation. For situations when multiple carrier signals are present, the rating would have to be reduced by 3.5 dB, especially where the output is re-radiated and can cause interference to adjacent band users. This power reduction is to be by means of input power or gain reduction and not by an attenuating at the output of the device. Description of network protection features:
This booster including safeguards to protect the cellular network from interference. Each Signal Booster is individually tested and factory set to ensure FCC compliance. 1. 2. The Signal Booster cannot be adjusted without factory reprogramming or disabling the hardware. The Signal Booster will amplify, but ONLY incoming and outgoing signals in order to increase coverage of authorized frequency bands. If the Signal Booster is not in use for five minutes, it will reduce gain until a signal is detected. If a detected signal is too high in a frequency band, or if the Signal Booster detects an oscillation, the Signal Booster will automatically turn the power off on that band. For a detected oscillation the Signal Booster will automatically resume normal operation after a minimum of 1 minute. After 5 times consecutive such automatic restarts, if the detected oscillation still remains, any problematic bands are permanently shut off until the Signal Booster has been manually restarted by reconnecting power supply to the Signal Booster. 3. 4. 5. 6. Noise power, gain, and linearity are maintained by the Signal Boosters microprocessor. www.SolidRFCanada.com 7 This is a CONSUMER device BEFURE USE ,you MUST REGISTER THIS DEVICE with your wireless provider and have your providers consent .Most wireless provider consent to the use of signal boosters
