NOTE: Please read thru this manual before using or installing.
You will need to download the free KING Wi-Fi app to
use this product (see page 1).
Installation and Operating Instructions

Record your serial number.

Page 1
Do not power wash any part of the
KING Falcon antenna head or base mount.
Before using the KING Falcon, you must download the free KING Wi-Fi app
from the Apple®App Store®or Google Play™Store.
When in the store, search for “KING Wi-Fi.”
Make sure the power inserter and the KING WiFiMax router are connected
and plugged in as shown.
OPERATING NOTES
Do not operate the KING Falcon while the vehicle is in motion.
The KING Falcon will not locate Wi-Fi signals while the vehicle is in motion.
You must leave the power inserter and KING WiFiMax connected and plugged in while using your Wi-Fi.
Any time you move your vehicle, you will have to scan for a network again.
BEFORE USING YOUR KING FALCON ANTENNA
The KING Falcon is an outdoor, automatic directional 2.4GHz Wi-Fi antenna. Using
the KING Wi-Fi app, the KING Falcon automatically rotates and scans 360 degrees
and shows you all of the available networks. Simply tap the network you want and the
KING Falcon automatically aims itself to get the best performance from that network.
The KING WiFiMax Wi-Fi Router/Range Extender creates your own private and secure
Wi-Fi network, just like you have in your home. When you are in range of an available
network, simply congure your KING WiFiMax to connect to that network, and it then
extends the internet access from that network to your own private Wi-Fi network.
Thank you for choosing a KING Falcon antenna!
FIRST-TIME USE: Go to the next page and follow the rst-time use instructions.
IF YOU HAVE COMPLETED FIRST-TIME USE: Go to STANDARD OPERATION on
page 16.
