Installing the XM SkyDock in Your Vehicle
WARNING! DO NOT attempt to install the XM SkyDock while driving .
Mounting the Magnetic Mount Antenna
The XM SkyDock incorporates an XM Satellite Radio Tuner .
A special magnetic vehicle mount antenna is included,
that when properly installed will allow you to receive
the signal . Proper placement is very important . Consult
a professional installer if you are uncomfortable with
installing the antenna yourself .
Mount the Magnetic Mount Antenna on the outside
of your vehicle, on a horizontal surface that will always face the sky . The antenna
contains a strong magnet that will stick to any metal part of your vehicle .
For most vehicles the best location is on the roof above the front windshield, as close to
centered between the left and right sides as the cable length will allow . For convertible
vehicles that do not have room above the windshield, place the antenna on the hood
of the vehicle near the back corner . Consult a professional installer if your vehicle roof
or hood is non-metallic (i .e . fiberglass) or you have difficulty finding a location for your
antenna .
IMPORTANT: The XM SkyDock uses a unique antenna . Do not substitute an antenna
from any other XM radio for the XM SkyDock antenna . Replacement XM SkyDock
antennas are available from shop .xmradio .com .
