Notes on installing the antenna to your car
• Mount the antenna gently so that it does not damage the body of the
car.
• Do not leave the cord slackened outside of the car.
• Use the cord clamp when fixing the cord, if required.
• When removing the antenna, do not pull it by the cord. This may cause
the cord to come off the antenna because of the powerful magnet.
• The antenna cord is charged with the XM signal and the power supply

cradle
• When washing the car in an automatic car wash, remove the antenna.
Otherwise, it may damage the body of the car.
Installing the antenna to an aluminum or plastic
body
The antenna cannot be installed on an aluminum or plastic body with the
magnet. In this case, use the supplied seal.
Painting the antenna
The antenna can be painted according to the body color of the car,
however, do not use paint that contains metal powder. This may cause
deterioration or inability of reception.
Do not disassemble the antenna when painting.
Placement of the car antenna
Place the antenna on a flat and even surface on your car roof. The angle
from the ground to the satellite should be about 20 - 60 degrees. If you
place the antenna on the trunk lid, make sure your car roof does not block
the satellite signal. Depending on where you live, you may be able to
receive radio waves that are retransmitted by ground repeaters.

* Be sure to install the antenna firmly on a flat surface. Do not install on the corner of the roof.
** • Be sure to install the cord clamp in a lower position where the water proof cushion is mounted. Otherwise, it will cause a water leak into the trunk.
• Clean the mounting surface before installing the cord clamp.
• Leave the installed cord clamp for 24 hours before installing the cord. Otherwise, the cord clamp may come off because of weak attachment.
*** • Cut the cable guide, if required.
• It is difficult to attach the cable guide to a body or window which has fluorine resin coating.
