Affixing the ferrite cores
You must affix the cores (supplied with the model you purchased) in order to comply with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Wind the cord around the ferrite core once or twice, and then fasten the catch. Make sure that each ferrite core should be attached to the appropriate position as shown in the diagram below.

Installing the XM Antenna to your Car
The bottom surface of the XM antenna is made of a magnet. Install the antenna horizontally in a location where the radio wave from the satellite is not interrupted by the body of the car (E.g., roof or trunk lid).
Notes on installing the antenna to your car
Place the antenna on a flat surface as far away as possible from the edges of the trunk lid or the rear window.
•Before mounting the antenna, be sure to attach the supplied seal to the body of the car where the antenna will be mounted, then mount the antenna gently so that it does not damage the body of the car.
•Do not leave the cord slackened outside of the car.
•Use the cord clamp when fixing the cord, if required.
•When removing the antenna, do not pull it by the cord. This may cause the cord to come off the antenna due to the powerful magnet.
•The antenna cord is charged with the XM signal and the power supply to the antenna. When wiring the antenna, be careful not to pinch the cord in the moving parts of the car. The damaged cable may cause a malfunction of the antenna and the main unit.
•When washing the car in an automatic car wash, remove the antenna. Otherwise, it may damage the body of the car.
Installing the antenna to an aluminum or plastic body
The antenna cannot be installed on an aluminum or plastic body with the magnet. In this case, use the supplied seal.
Painting the antenna
The antenna can be painted according to the body color of the car, however, do not use paint that contains metal powder. This may cause deterioration or inability of reception.
Do not disassemble the antenna when painting.
Placement of the car antenna
Place the antenna on a flat and even surface on your car roof. The angle from the ground to the satellite should be about 20 - 60 degrees. If you place the antenna on the trunk lid, make sure your car roof does not block the satellite signal. Depending on where you live, you may be able to receive radio waves that are retransmitted by ground repeaters.

*Be sure to install the antenna firmly on a flat surface. Do not install on the corner of the roof.
**• Be sure to install the cord clamp in a lower position where the water proof cushion is mounted. Otherwise, it will cause a water leak into the trunk.
•Clean the mounting surface before installing the cord clamp.
•Leave the installed cord clamp for 24 hours before installing the cord. Otherwise, the cord clamp may come off due to weak attachment.
•To install the cord, insert it into the cord clamp, then press the top of the cord clamp downward so that the cord is securely installed inside the cord clamp.
***• Cut the cable guide, if required.
•It is difficult to attach the cable guide to a body or window which has fluorine resin coating.
