1. Mounting the Amplifier with Velcro:
You can leave the Amplifier on top of a flat surface or use the enclosed Velcro straps to
mount the Amplifier. There are two Velcro strips (hook-and-loop pairs) in the box for
mounting the amplifier.
Determine the location where your Amplifier will be placed. Clean the intended surface
and allow it to dry. Peel the protective paper from the back of the hook sides of the
Velcro. Press the adhesive side of the Velcro strips into place on the bottom of the
Amplifier, one strip on each end. Wait 5 minutes for the adhesive to set before
attaching the loop side of the Velcro to the hook side. The adhesive bond will reach its
maximum strength after 24 hours.
With both of the Velcro loop and hook pieces attached to the back of the Amplifier, peel
the protective paper off of the back of the loop strips. Press the entire Amplifier into its
mounting place. Wait 5 minutes for the adhesive to set. Make sure the Amplifier is
firmly seated. To remove the Amplifier, rotate it across the Velcro – do not pull the
Amplifier or cables.
STARTING THE AMPLFIER
The signal is received by the outside antenna from the cell tower, then amplified and
transmitted to your phone through the inside antenna. When the phone transmits, the
signal is received by the inside antenna, then amplified and transmitted to the cell tower
through the outside antenna.
Now you are ready to make and receive cell phone calls with powerful signal
amplification! Note that it is normal for the Amplifier’s case to be warm during
operation.
Press any cell phone key to refresh its communication with the base station. If your
signal is weak, having this Amplifier installed and operating properly will give you a large
increase in the signal strength and quality. The change in the signal strength can be
seen on the visual display of your cell phone, and heard on your receiver or headset. To
see the difference, try operating your phone in an area that is known to have weak cell
phone signals. You will be amazed at the dramatic difference the PHONETONE Signal
Amplifier provides!
