Sirius Satellite Radio Status 4 User Manual page 22

The SIRIUS antenna needs to have an unobstructed area of 3 inches by 3 inches
around it. It is important to mount the antenna where no obstructions will block the
antenna from receiving the SIRIUS signal. Objects which can obstruct the antenna
could be a roof rack, a sunroof, a roof-mounted cargo container, another antenna, etc.
If your vehicle has a potential obstruction, be sure that the SIRIUS antenna is mounted
at least 3 inches away from it (but no closer than 3 inches from the roof edge, or trunk
lid in the case of a convertible).
Note:
Read the
DO
and
DO NOT
installation tips beginning on page 32 for additional
antenna installation information.
Follow this procedure to mount the antenna:
1.
Select an appropriate mounting position for your type of vehicle that has an
unobstructed area of 3 inches by 3 inches around the antenna.
2. Attach the Rubber Cover/Tail to the antenna, as shown in Figure 9, and press
the antenna cable into the rubber cover/tail. The Rubber Cover/Tail will help to
position the antenna the correct distance from the edge of the roof or trunk lid.
