Starlink

Flashing Mount

If you are uncomfortable with any part of the installation process,

do not attempt - contact a professional to install your Starlink.

Starlink is not responsible for damage to property caused by the

installation process.

Please be aware that inclement weather (e.g., heavy rain, snow,

or wind) can affect your satellite internet connection, potentially

leading to slower speeds or a rare outage.

The Starlink will detect and melt snow that falls directly on it;

however, accumulating snow around the Starlink may block the

ﬁeld of view. We recommend installing Starlink in a location that

avoids snow build-up and other obstructions from blocking the

ﬁeld of view.

If your Starlink App displays a “Motor’s Stuck” alert, your Starlink

may be mounted in a way that it cannot reach its optimal angle

to connect with the satellites. We advise mounting your Starlink

within 40 degrees of vertical. Mounting your Starlink in a

horizontal position (i.e., on the side of your chimney), will not

allow it to operate.

WARNING! The power supply and router are restricted to

indoor use only.

WARNING! Mounts are not designed for hurricane/tornado

wind loads. Tethering should be used in all cases to prevent

failure in an unexpected wind event.

INSTALLATION CONDITIONS

WARNING! To reduce the risk of injury, electric shock, or

ﬁre, follow basic safety precautions, including:

• Make sure the product’s power is disconnected before

accessing, moving, or installing the Starlink (aka “Dishy

McFlatface”). Starlink contains moving parts when

powered on.

• Plug the power cord into an AC outlet that is easily

accessible at all times. If the power cord has a 3-pin

attachment, plug the cord into a grounded (earthed)

3-pin outlet.

• Only use the AC adapter and power cord provided with

the system or purchased from SpaceX.

• Do not operate this product with a damaged power

cord set. If the power cord is damaged, replace before

using this product.

• During operation, do not allow the AC adapter to

contact skin or a soft surface, such as carpet/rug or

clothing. The product and the AC adapter comply with

the user-accessible surface temperature limits deﬁned

by applicable safety standards.

Do not operate this product if you notice crackling, hissing,

popping sounds, a strong odor, or smoke coming from any

parts of the system. Turn off the system, disconnect from power

source, and contact Starlink technical support for assistance.

WARNING! To avoid injury to persons and damage to property

when drilling, take caution and follow basic safety procedures,

including:

• Wear appropriate eye, hand, and face protection.

• Avoid studs, electrical wiring, and water lines when

drilling. Drilling into any of these can lead to ﬁre, shock,

injury, or death.

• Drill at a slight downward angle from the home interior

to the home exterior and thoroughly apply sealant.

Improper drilling and sealing may lead to water and/or

bug intrusion and/or damage.

For more safety, regulatory, labeling, and disposal information,

refer to the Regulatory Notices in the main internet kit.

SAFETY NOTICES

Si vous n’êtes pas à l’aise avec l’une ou l’autre des étapes

d’installation de votre antenne Starlink, demandez l’aide d’un

professionnel. Starlink n'est pas responsable des dommages

à votre propriété causés par l'installation du produit.

Notez que le mauvais temps (par exemple, la pluie ou le vent fort

et les accumulations de neige) peut ralentir la connexion Internet

de votre satellite et parfois causer une panne.

L’antenne Starlink détectera et fera fondre la neige qui tombe

directement sur sa surface, cependant, les accumulations de

neige autour de l’appareil peuvent entraver son champ de vision.

Nous recommandons d’installer Starlink dans un endroit peu

propice aux accumulations de neige et où aucune autre

obstruction ne viendra bloquer son champ visuel.

Si votre application Starlink afﬁche l’alerte « Moteur bloqué »,

votre antenne Starlink est possiblement installée d’une façon qui

l’empêche d’atteindre l’angle parfait pour se connecter avec les

satellites. Nous recommandons d’installer votre Starlink dans les

40 degrés de la position verticale. Si vous installez votre antenne

Starlink dans une position horizontale (par exemple, sur le côté

de votre cheminée), elle ne fonctionnera pas.

AVERTISSEMENT! L’alimentation et le routeur doivent

uniquement être utilisés à l'intérieur.

AVERTISSEMENT! Ces ﬁxations ne sont pas conçues pour

résister aux vents provoqués par une tornade ou un ouragan.

Le partage de connexion devrait être utilisé dans tous les cas

pour prévenir toute panne en cas de temps venteux inattendus.

CONDITIONS D’INSTALLATION

AVERTISSEMENT! Pour réduire les risques de blessure, de

décharge électrique ou de feu, veuillez prendre les précautions

de batse, notamment :

• Assurez-vous que l’alimentation soit coupée avant de tenter

d’installer ou de déplacer l’antenne Starlink, ou d’accéder à cette

dernière (alias « Dishy McFlatface ». Lorsqu’elle est alimentée,

l’antenne Starlink contient des pièces mobiles.

• Branchez le cordon d'alimentation à une prise secteur facilement

accessible en tout temps. Si le cordon d'alimentation est muni

d'une ﬁche à trois broches, branchez le cordon d'alimentation dans

une prise de courant mise à la terre (à trois broches).

• Utilisez uniquement l'adaptateur secteur et le cordon d'alimen-

tation fournis avec le système ou qui ont été achetés de SpaceX.

• N’utilisez pas ce produit avec un cordon d'alimentation endom-

magé d'une quelconque manière. Si le cordon d’alimentation est

endommagé, remplacez-le avant d’utiliser le produit.

• Ne laissez pas l’adaptateur secteur entrer en contact avec la peau

ou une surface souple, comme un tapis ou des vêtements, pendant

le fonctionnement. Le produit et l'adaptateur secteur sont

conformes aux limites de température des surfaces accessibles

aux utilisateurs déﬁnies par les normes de sécurité applicables.

N’utilisez pas ce produit si vous remarquez tout craquement,

sifﬂement, claquement ou odeur intense ou si vous voyez de la fumée

émergeant du système. Éteignez le système, débranchez-le de la

source d’alimentation et communiquez avec le soutien technique de

Starlink pour obtenir de l’aide.

AVERTISSEMENT! Pour éviter de causer des blessures ou des

dommages à la propriété lors du perçage, prenez les précautions de

base, notamment :

• Protégez adéquatement vos yeux, vos mains et votre visage.

• En perçant, prenez soin d’éviter les clous, les ﬁls électriques et les

conduites d’eau.. Percer un de ces éléments peut causer un feu, une

décharge électrique, des blessures et même la mort.

• Assurez-vous de bien percer à un angle légèrement descendant de

l’intérieur à l’extérieur de la maison et appliquez méticuleusement le

scellant. Un perçage inapproprié et un scellage inadéquat peuvent

causer des inﬁltrations d'eau ou d'insectes ou autre dommage.

7. Apply roof cement under shingles

and around edge of mount. Lay

shingles back on top and apply

pressure to adhere.

8. Carry Starlink to install location.

To prevent damage to the Starlink,

do not set face-down onto the roof.

Never set the Starlink onto roof. Directly place the Starlink into mount.

5. For users not routing through

attic, proceed to Step 6. If routing

cable through attic space, drill

hole in area of removed section.

Take care to not drill into roof beam.

6. Slide lower half of mount into

place, with bottom sliding under

top layer of shingles. Peel back

shingles and install the 7x truss

head screws to attach lower half

of mount to roof.

INSTALLATION

9. If routing through attic space:

route connected cable through

pre-drilled hole in roof, then go

inside and pull the necessary

amount of cable through roof.

For any excess cable on top

of the roof, coil and store in

the bottom half of the mount.

12. Use wall clips to fasten the cable

to the wall along your route. Avoid

puncturing cable, sharp bends, and

follow horizontal / vertical lines.

If routing cable over the roof:

unravel your connected cable

coil and route the loose end

into your home.
