Congratulations on your purchase of the Amplified Flat Multi-Directional Indoor Antenna.  
With this contemporary antenna, rabbit ears are a thing of the past. This sleek, attractive  
antenna features the most advanced technology, including a patented engineering design that  
provides excellent reception for both analog and digital TV broadcasts.  
Multi-Directional Antennas  
A multi-directional antenna is able to receive signals from any direction. Useful for both  
analog and digital reception, the antenna looks great, facilitates optimal reception, and  
requires very little space. The patented multi-directional technology ensures that the  
antenna does not need to be adjusted according to the location of the transmitting signal.  
 
Setting Up the Antenna  
Find the best location for the antenna  
Before you connect the antenna, determine the best spot in your home for optimum  
Then, try as much as possible to avoid obstructions between these transmitters and your  
antenna.  
Because of its amplification and multi-directional capabilities, the antenna receives UHF,  
VHF, and local high-definition broadcasts, providing quality reception from most locations.  
Note: The antenna may work well sitting on your TV or other components. However,  
because electronic components can sometimes interfere with the antenna’s reception, you  
might notice an effect on the antenna’s performance. Likewise, placing the antenna on  
a metal surface may interfere with reception. If the antenna isn’t performing as well as  
expected, try moving it away from the component or placing it on another surface. Then,  
re-scan for channels on your TV or converter box.  
Positioning the Antenna  
After locating the optimal position for your antenna, choose from one of three options:  
Lay the antenna flat The antenna has raised feet on its bottom to prevent scratching of  
furniture. Make sure you place the antenna on a flat, level surface.  
Note: This is the position that usually gives optimal performance.  
Hang the antenna The back of the antenna antenna has two mounting holes that can  
be used for hanging. Place both holes over screws inserted in your wall.  
Stand the antenna upright The antenna comes with a removable stand. Simply place  
the antenna in the stand to prop the antenna in an upright position.

Connecting the Antenna  
You can use the antenna with or without its amplifier, depending on which connection gives  
you the best signal. Try using the amplifier first. If you notice that you’ve lost channels that  
you normally receive, try connecting without the amplifier.  
You can connect the antenna directly to your TV or use it with a converter box.

Painting Your Antenna  
You can paint the antenna to match your décor. Use only non-metal-based interior paint.  
Coaxial Cable Installation Precautions  
• Do not bend coaxial cables into less than a three-inch radius. Tighter bends can cause  
shorts and can change a cable’s impedance.  
• Do not install a coaxial cable where it will have a pulling tension greater than 15 pounds  
during installation. After installation, make sure there is no tension on the cable.  
• Use only round-headed staples. Any clamps or securing devices used with coax should  
grip the cable evenly about the circumference without crushing the cable. Flat staples can  
damage the coaxial cable.  
• Do not expose a coaxial cable to a temperature greater than 176 degrees Fahrenheit. Keep  
the cable away from heating vents and water heaters.
