Install the Magnetic Mount Antenna
Proper placement of the
Magnetic
Mount Antenna is very important. Consult
a professional installer if you are uncomfortable with
installing
the antenna
yourself.

the

link.
•
Place the Magnetic
Mount
Antenna on
the
outside of your vehicle on a
horizontal
surface
that always
faces
the sky.
•
Avoid placing
the
antenna near obstacles that
could block a clear view of the sky (such as
roof
racks,
other antennas like AM/FM, cellular,
and GPS), preventing the satellite signal from
reaching the antenna.
Select the Best Location for the Magnetic Mount Antenna
For most vehicles the best location is on the roof,
centered above the rear window or front windshield.
Consult a professional installer to find an alternate
antenna mounting location if your vehicle roof is made
from a non-magnetic material such as aluminum,
fiberglass, or carbon fibre.
• Sedan or Coupe:
Recommended mounting location
is above the rear window or front windshield.
• Pickup or SUV:
Recommended mounting location is
above the
front
windshield.
•
Convertible:
Recommended
mounting location
is
above the front windshield, or alternately on the
trunk
lid,
on the front hood, or on top of the front
fender.
