Product Information
The Winegard® Air™ 360+ system will bring in over-the-air local broadcast
television out of the box but has also been designed with the ability to work
with the Winegard Gateway as a WiFi and 4G LTE Extender. It is not intended
to work with any other router system.
The Air 360+ is designed for RVs with a roof-radius of 230 inches to flat and
with a maximum 7 inch roof thickness.
The Air 360+ allows the Winegard Gateway
inside the dome of the antenna or on the ceiling of the RV. For better
performance, it is recommended to install on the ceiling of the RV shown in
Option A below, however either option is acceptable.
The Air 360+ can replace another TV antenna and can utilize the coax cable
that has already been installed. If doing this, you must ensure the coax
runs to the Winegard antenna wall plate/power supply and, if the Winegard
Gateway is to be installed, that the power cable is routed to the Gateway wall
plate/power supply.
It is recommended to install the Air 360+ before attempting to install the
Gateway™ system. Winegard recommends installing the Gateway directly
under the Air 360+. Once the Air 360+ has been installed, there are two
requirements to finding a location on the RV ceiling for installation: +12VDC
must be present, and the three WiFi/4G antenna cables from the Air 360+
must be able to reach the connection points on the Gateway router.

Installation Instructions
Safety Recommendations
Do not attempt to install this system in the rain or under any wet conditions.
Do not paint this antenna. Painting the antenna will void the warranty.
Before mounting the antenna, determine locations for both the TV antenna
wall plate/power supply and Gateway wall plate/power supply. Keep in mind
the following:
• Coaxial cables will have to run from the power supply to the antenna and
from the power supply to each television.
• If using the Air 360+ to receive FM stations, an additional coax cable
(not provided) will have to run from the wall plate to the coax to audio cable
(provided) and into the radio.
• Coax cables will have to be routed through the roof directly under the
perimeter of the antenna. It will not seal correctly for the cables to exit under
the flange. Failure to install correctly could cause damage to the antenna and
possibly the RV.
• A 12 V connection must be made to the back of both power supplies.

Installation Instructions cont.
• The Winegard® Gateway™ can always be installed later, however it is
recommended to run the power cable to the intended mounting location of
the Gateway router.
Choose a location for the antenna that meets the following requirements:
• Offers enough support for a secure installation
• Maintains adequate clearance from the edge of the roof and any
obstructions:
– clearance distance of 24 inches needed from center of antenna to front of
the vehicle.
– clearance distance of 18 inches needed from center of antenna to nearest
obstruction and to the edge of the roof.
18"
24"
Front of vehicle
Step 1 – Remove the dome of the antenna by unscrewing the 4 Phillips screws
on the side of the dome. Carefully remove the dome and set it on its side as a
coax cable is connected to the antenna attached to the roof of the dome.
Step 2 – Place the base of the antenna in the location you intend to mount
with the flange indicating FRONT facing the front of the vehicle. Next, with a
pencil, trace around the base of the unit and the cable pass-thru hole that the
coax cable exits. Remove the base from this location.

indicating FRONT facing the front of the vehicle. Screw in 6 mounting screws
into the 6 mounting holes around the flange of the base and into the roof.
Step 8 – Next, add approved sealant (check with RV Manufacturer) completely
around the flange base and over each screw.
WARNING: Ensure the gasket of the dome is complete sealed and that there
are NO gaps between the sealant and the base of the Air 360+. Failure to do
so could lead to water damage in the RV.
> If planning to install the Winegard Gateway now or at a later time:
Step 9 – Run the Gateway power cable from the hole where the three
antenna cables (Yellow, Green, and Red) enter the ceiling of the RV to the
predetermined location of the Gateway wall plate/power supply. The white
connector of this power cable should be at the same location as the Yellow,
Green, and Red connectors. The Winegard Gateway will use this power cable.
The bare wires of this power cable should be routed to where the On/Off
switch will be for the Winegard Gateway extender.
