Mounting the Antennas on the Vehicle
Follow this procedure for mounting each antenna:
1.Select an appropriate mounting position for your type of vehicle according to the instructions in the previous section.
2.Attach the rubber cover/tail to the antenna, as shown in Figure 10, and press the antenna cable into the rubber cover/tail. The rubber cover/tail will help to position the antenna the correct distance from the edge of the roof or trunk lid.
3.Clean the surface area of the vehicle where you will be installing the antenna with the alcohol prep pad.
4.Peel the protective material from the adhesive strips (Figure 10) and press the rubber cover/tail firmly into place on the vehicle (Figure 11).

5.Double check that the location of the antenna and rubber cover/tail are correct, and continue to press firmly down on rubber cover/tail for another 30 seconds. At room temperature (68 degrees), maximum adhesion usually occurs within 72 hours. During this period, avoid car washes and other contact with the antenna and rubber antenna cable cover/tail.
