Installation
Note:
• Before making a final installation of the unit, tem- |
porarily connect the wiring to confirm that the con- |
nections are correct and the system works proper- |
ly. |
• Use only the parts included with the unit to ensure |
proper installation. The use of unauthorized parts |
can cause malfunctions. |
• Consult with your nearest dealer if installation |
requires the drilling of holes or other modifications |
of the vehicle. |
• Install the unit where it does not get in the driver’s |
way and cannot injure the passenger if there is a |
sudden stop, like an emergency stop. |
• When mounting this unit, make sure none of the |
leads are trapped between this unit and the sur- |
rounding metalwork or fittings. |
• Do not mount this unit near the heater outlet, |
where it would be affected by heat, or near the |
doors, where rainwater might splash onto it. |
• Before drilling any mounting holes always check |
•Install the antenna on as flat a place as possible.
•Do not paint the antenna, as this may affect its per- formance.
•Do not place items such as magnetic cards close to the antenna because it has a powerful field of mag- netism.
•The antenna may be less sensitive when it is snow- ing.
•When installing the antenna with magnet, be care- ful not to scratch the vehicle body.
•Be sure to detach the antenna and place inside the vehicle every time you enter a carwash. If it is left on the outside it may be knocked off and scratch the vehicle body.
Installing the Unit

Tapping screw (4 ⋅ 12 mm)
behind where you want to drill the holes. Do not |
drill into the gas line, brake line, electrical wiring |
or other important parts. |
• If this unit is installed in the passenger compart- |
ment, anchor it securely so it does not break free |
while the car is moving, and cause injury or an |
accident. |
• If this unit is installed under a front seat, make sure |
it does not obstruct seat movement. Route all leads |
and cords carefully around the sliding mechanism |
so they do not get caught or pinched in the mecha- |
nism and cause a short circuit. |
• When installing this unit, do not stack it with other |
products (e.g. do not stack with the |
tuner) as there is the possibility of the XM tuner |
interferring with the other unit, and causing poor |
reception. |
