Cable Cover/Tail
Optimum Antenna Mounting
Locations
The optimum location to mount the
included antenna is on the roof of the
vehicle. It is important to avoid any
obstruction that will block satellite
signal – like a roof rack. For convertible
vehicles, install the antenna on the
trunk lid.
• Place the antenna on a metal
surface of your vehicle at least 12"
x 12", and at least 6" from a
window. (Use the antenna cover/tail
as a guide for the proper distance).
• The antenna's powerful magnet will
secure it to the metal surface. The
adhesive that is attached to the
antenna cover/tail will secure the
cable to the vehicle. Before routing
the antenna cable, confirm that the
antenna is mounted in a good
location.
• Route the cable from the antenna to
the vehicle's interior by tucking it
underneath the rubber molding
around the rear window (if possible).
• Route the cable from the lowest point
of the rear window into the trunk.
Take advantage of any existing cable
channels or wiring conduits.
