Glass mounted GSM combined antenna
Warning! On S40, V40, S60 V70 (00-) and S80 cars with inflatable curtains, the wiring must not be routed above the side windows. This would jeopardize the function of the inflatable curtain in the event of a collision.
Note! When installing on the rear windscreen, the antenna must not be installed on the heating loops in the windscreen. However, the antenna is not affected by the area of the windscreen shaded black.
The antenna is positioned as described below:
Note! The temperature of the windscreen must not be lower than +10°C.

- Check the location (as illustrated). Ensure that the antenna is clear of the windscreen trim and wiper blade. Ensure that the antenna can be removed from the external base module when washing the car etc.
- Carefully clean the surface of the glass. Use the cleaning cloth supplied. Wipe dry using a rag.
- For optimum adhesion, warm the glass. Use a hair drier for example.
- Remove the backing from the external base module. Secure the external base module on the windscreen. Press hard on points 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, in order, for 3-4 seconds.
- Ensure that the tape is sealed around the external base module.
Installing the internal base module
Templates are provided to facilitate installation of the internal base module. The templates are necessary because the black shading on the windscreen may conceal the external base module.
- Cut out the two templates provided with the illustrations.
- Align one template on the installed external base module. Secure it using tape.
- Carefully clean the interior surface of the glass. Use the cleaning cloth supplied. Wipe dry using a rag.
- Install the second template on the interior, edge to edge with the external template.
The internal and external base modules must be positioned directly opposite each other.
- Install the internal module in the cut-out of the second template. Install the internal module base in the same way as the external module base.
- Remove the templates.
Routing the antenna cable
The clips in the kit are used to secure the antenna cable, to the windscreen frame for example.
Warning! Do not secure the antenna cable to the inflatable curtains.
