Telit Mobile Terminals S.p.A. SAT551 Manuel D’Utilisation

Installation Precautions

t The car kit must only be installed by trained technicians using the

technical assistance provided at authorised service centres (a list of

these centres is included in the pack). Any installation or repair that is

not done correctly may be dangerous and cause damage to the car kit

and the Sat 500, and will cause the guarantee to lapse.

t The car kit is designed for vehicles with a

12 V, negative earthed power

supply. Any other power supply or polarity may damage the car kit.

t The cradle and amplifier should be positioned so that they do not

interfere with normal driving operations, and where they are not

exposed to streams of hot air from the vehicle‘s heating system.

t The car kit must not be installed directly over electrical connections,

electric wires, or fuel, lubrication oil, air conditioning, or any other type

of ducting or piping.

t Do not install any electrical device near the airbag, or near the airbag

opening.

t Only use the wires provided in the pack. Do not cut or modify them.
t Before starting installation of the car kit, the terminals must be

disconnected from the vehicle’s battery.

Before starting installation, check that the wires can be laid to connect

the amplifier to the cradle, and the antenna wire to the amplifier and

the Globalstar magnetic external antenna.

t On completing the installation, check that the wires connecting the

vehicle‘s IO devices and the external antenna wire(s) (Globalstar and/or

GSM 900) do not interfere with the opening and closing of doors, the

boot, the sun visors, the wheels, brakes, gear change, or seats.

Also check that all wires are working properly.

t On completing the installation also check that all the car kit‘s

components are correctly secured and that they do not move around

when the vehicle is moving or braking.
