cellular reception please do the following:
1. Read through all the installation
steps. This will help you know what
to expect from start to nish.
2. Watch the YouTube video
demonstrating the Mobile 4G Signal
Boost installation at:
wilsonelectronics.com/
Mobile4Gvideo
3. Familiarize yourself with all
materials in your product package.
This will allow you to know which
pieces are referenced in the
instructions.
Installation
You can install your Mobile 4G
Signal Booster in your vehicle using
the following steps. NOTE: Before
completing your installation, create
a “soft” installation by putting the
components of your Mobile 4G Signal
Booster in place and testing the
operation before mounting equipment.
1. Install the outside antenna. Select a
location on top of the car that is:
• Near the center of the vehicle’s roof.
• At least 12 inches from any other
antennas.
• Free of obstructions.
• At least 6 inches from any
windows (including sunroofs).
• At least 8 inches from any people.

The outside antenna must be installed
vertically on a metallic surface.
2. Run the outside antenna cable
into the car. The cable is strong
enough that it may be shut in most
vehicle doors without damaging the
cable. For a cleaner look, carefully
pull down the door seal, run the
cable under the seal, and push the
seal back into place. This method
reduces wear on the cable as the
door opens and closes.
3. Install the Low-Prole inside antenna.
• Identify a place on the right side
of the driver’s seat to mount the
inside antenna. The location
should be at least 18 inches from
where the cellular device will be
used.
• Install the inside antenna at the
same angle as the cell phone
when held in use or near the
laptop’s cellular data card to
maximize signal strength.
For a more professional look,
you can install the inside antenna
underneath a car seat cover or
upholstery.
• When you have tested the
functionality of your Mobile 4G
Signal Booster, mount the inside
antenna by peeling off the backing
of the Velcro® and attach it to your
selected location on the seat and
secure the inside antenna.
4. Place and connect the Mobile 4G
Signal Booster.
• Select a location for the Signal
Booster that is free from excessive
heat, direct sunlight and moisture
and that has proper ventilation.
Good locations include underneath
a seat or under the dashboard.
• Connect the wire from the outside
antenna to the port labeled
“outside antenna” on the Signal
Booster.
• Connect the wire from the inside
antenna to the port labeled “inside
antenna” on the Signal Booster.
• Plug the power adapter into
vehicle’s 12V DC power supply
and attach the cord to the side of
Power Booster labeled “Power.”
NOTE: Do NOT connect the power
to the Signal Booster until you
have connected both the inside
and outside antennas.

into both the Mobile 4G Signal Booster
and the power source.
• If using a DC power supply in your
vehicle, ensure the power supply is
properly inserted. Then check the 12
volt power from the car socket and the
fuse. Replace the fuse if necessary.
Red light: A red light indicates oscillation
is occurring. Oscillation is similar to
feedback between a microphone and
speaker. When oscillation occurs, the
Signal Booster will power down to protect
the cell tower. To eliminate oscillation,
the outside antenna needs to be moved
farther from the inside antenna. Move the
outside antenna on the roof to the rear of
the car, but at least 8 to 12 inches from
the rear or side windows. Disconnect
the power from the Signal Booster, then
reconnect the power to reset the Signal
Booster.
Blinking Red/Green: If one or more
of the lights on the Signal Booster are
blinking red/green, this means that the
Signal Booster has reduced gain due
to oscillation. Increase the distance
between the Outside and the Inside
Antennas, or place the Outside Antenna
near the center of the vehicle, and reset
the Signal Booster by disconnecting then
reconnecting the power to the signal
booster. Contact Wilson Electronics
Technical Support Team for assistance.
Increase
distance Inside
antenna
• Power up your Signal Booster by
ipping the switch on the back of the
DC power adapter on. A red light
should appear on the power adapter.
Note: The Mobile 4G Signal Booster
may remain on, in vehicles whose
12V DC power sources do not
automatically shutdown when the
vehicle is turned off. This could
result in discharging the vehicles
battery in one to two days.
Note: Some 12V DC power sources
are shut down when the vehicle
ignition is turned to off. Refer to
your vehicle owners manual for
specics related to your vehicle.
NOTE: The aluminum casing of
your Signal Booster will adjust to the
temperature of its environment, but is
designed to protect the Signal Booster
technology. For example, in the summer,
the Signal Booster case may be as hot
as 150 degrees inside your vehicle.
These high temperatures will NOT
damage the Signal Booster, nor do they
pose a re risk to the vehicle. Again, be
sure to place your Signal Booster in a
location with adequate ventilation and
away from direct sunlight or moisture.
Troubleshooting &
Understanding Lights
The lights on the front of the Mobile
4G Signal Booster indicate whether
the system is working or if there are
problems. Each light indicates the
operation of its labeled frequency. Take
the following steps based on the indicator
light color when using the Mobile 4G
Signal Booster.
Lights off: If the lights are not on:
• Check connections on the power
supply to see that it is rmly plugged

(866-294-1660), or by email, at tech@
wilsonelectronics.com
How does weather affect the
performance of my outside antenna?
Water vapor (e.g. rain, fog, snow or
other precipitation) creates an effective
lter to cellular signal. In times of
heavy precipitation, you may see less
performance.
What’s the difference between the 800
MHz and the 1900 MHz bands? How do
I know which MHz band my cell phone
uses?
The Mobile 4G works with all major North
American cellular providers on the 800
& 1900 MHz frequencies. Traditionally,
800/1900MHz are associated with voice and
3G data; while 700MHz and 1700/2100MHz
are associated with 4G data.
Carrier Frequency Use
We recommend visiting wirelessadvisor.
com (US) or http://bit.ly/1mQf2Gl (Canada)
for information regarding the frequency
band used by your cell service provider in a
specic geographical location.

Each Signal Booster is individually tested and factory set to ensure FCC compliance. The Signal Booster cannot be adjusted without factory
reprogramming or disabling the hardware. The Signal Booster will amplify, but not alter incoming and outgoing signals in order to increase coverage
of authorized frequency bands only. 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 (five) such
automatic restarts, any problematic bands are permanently shut off until the Signal Booster has been manually restarted by momentarily removing
power from the Signal Booster. Noise power, gain, and linearity are maintained by the Signal Booster’s microprocessor.
The Manufacturer’s 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 signal 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 attenuator at the output of the device.
This device complies with Part 15 of FCC rules. Operation is subject to two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Changes or modifications not
expressly approved by Wilson Electronics could void the authority to operate this equipment.
