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 FIRE 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.
THE DRIVE 4G-X 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.

RUNNING ANTENNA CABLE
Run the Outside Antenna cable into the vehicle.
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.

CELL PHONE SIGNAL BOOSTER
(SPECIFICATIONS cont.)
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 fi ve 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 (fi ve) 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.
Frequently Asked
Questions
What hours can I contact customer support?
Customer Support can be reached 7 days a week by calling 866.294.1660, or through our support site at support.weboost.com
Why do I need to create distance between the booster and the antenna?
Antennas connected to a booster create spheres of signal. When these spheres overlap, a condition called oscillation occurs. Oscillation can be thought of as noise, which causes the booster to shut down to prevent damage. The best way to keep these spheres of signal from overlapping is to maximize separation between the
Booster and Antenna.

Safety Guidelines
Warnings
Use only the power supply provided in this package. Use of a non-weBoost product may damage your equipment.
The Signal Booster unit is designed for use in an indoor, temperature-controlled environment (less than 150 degrees Fahrenheit). It is not intended for use in attics or similar locations subject to temperatures in excess of that range.
The inside panel and dome antennas must have 6’ of separation distance from all active users, and the low profile antennas must have 18” of separation distance from all active users.
Connecting the Signal Booster directly to the cell phone with use of an adapter will damage the cell phone.
The Outside Antenna must be installed no higher than 10 meters (32’9”) above ground.
Any antenna used with this device must be located at least 8 inches from all persons
RF Safety Warning: Any antenna used with this device must be located at least 8 inches from all persons.
This is a CONSUMER device.
BEFORE USE, you MUST REGISTER THIS DEVICE with your wireless provider and have your provider’s consent. Most wireless providers consent to the use of signal boosters. Some providers may not consent to the use of this device on their network.
If you are unsure, contact your provider.

Light Patterns
SOLID GREEN — This indicates that your booster is functioning properly and there are no issues with installation.
BLINKING RED, THEN SOLID GREEN —This indicates that one or more of the booster bands has reduced power due to a feedback loop condition called oscillation. This is a built in safety feature to prevent harmful interference with a nearby cell tower. If you are already experiencing the desired signal boost, then no further adjustments are necessary. If you are not experiencing the desired boost in coverage then refer to the Troubleshooting section below.
SOLID RED — This is due to a feedback loop condition called oscillation. This is a built in safety feature that causes a band to shut off to prevent harmful interference with a nearby cell tower. Refer to Troubleshooting section below.
Troubleshooting
Fixing Blinking or Solid Red Issues
This section is only applicable if the booster is red or blinking red and you are not experiencing the desired signal boost.
1. Unplug the Booster’s power supply.
2. Relocate the inside and outside antenna further from each other. The objective is to increase the separation distance between them, so that they will not create this feedback condition discussed before.
3. Plug power supply back in.
4. Monitor the indicator light on your booster. If, after a few seconds of ‘power on’, a solid or blinking red light appears, repeat steps 1 through 3. Increase the separation distance until the condition is corrected and/or desired coverage area is achieved. Note: Parallel separation of the two antennas typically requires a shorter separation distance than perpendicular separation. A combination of vertical and horizontal separation distance also works to prevent oscillation.
5. If you are having any difficulties while testing or installing your booster, contact our weBoost Customer Support team for assistance (866.294.1660).

Light Off
If the Drive 4G-X Signal Booster’s light is off, verify your power supply has power.
NOTE: The Signal Booster can be reset by disconnecting and reconnecting the power supply.
After troubleshooting you must initiate a new power cycle by disconnecting and then reconnecting power to the Booster.
ALWAYS disconnect and reconnect power from the power supply adapter, NEVER from the Booster.
