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.
More detailed installation instructions and illustrations can be found at
www.siriusxm.com/xminstallation and clicking on the Install and Activate link.
• Locate 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.
