Installing the Magnetic Antenna

Caution

Because adhesive is used in the installation of the Rubber Antenna Cover/Tail, we rec- ommend that you install the antenna at or above room temperature (68° F). The adhesive on the Rubber Cover/Tail may not adhere properly to the vehicle roof at temperatures lower than this. Warmer temperatures will also make it easier to route of the antenna cable through the rubber molding around the windows and in other areas in the vehicle. Maximum adhesion usually occurs within 72 hours at room temperature, so you should avoid car washes as well as other contact with the antenna and Rubber Cover/Tail dur- ing this 72 hour period.

Warning

Be sure not to cut, damage, or puncture the external jacket of the antenna cable during the installation procedure. Damage to the antenna cable can degrade the SIRIUS signal or make it unavailable, and can also cause water to intrude via the cable into the antenna causing the antenna to fail.

Do not lengthen or shorten the antenna cable by cutting it. Doing so will cause the antenna to not function properly.

Installation

Installing the magnetic antenna consists of two steps:

Mounting the magnetic antenna and Rubber Antenna Cover/Tail on the vehicle

Routing the antenna cable through the vehicle to the Vehicle Dock
