Antenna Cable

Routing Adapter

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.

Route the Antenna Cable

If you are installing the antenna at the edge of the roof or hood, install the Antenna Cable Routing Adapter to direct the Install the Magnetic Mount Antenna

cable downward. Place the antenna cable

into the groove of the adapter and slide the adapter down the cable until the adapter is

flush with the bottom of the antenna.

Use care when routing the antenna cable into and through the vehicle interior, avoiding sharp objects that can damage the cable. Keep the antenna cable away from moving parts such as gas and brake pedals, trunk and door hinges, and sliding seat brackets.

Make the Connections

You’ll need to access the back of the SiriusXM-Ready headunit so you can plug the SXV100 Vehicle Tuner into it. This may require you to remove the headunit from the dashboard. If you are uncomfortable with this step, consult a professional installer.

Be sure to turn OFF the SiriusXM-Ready headunit before connecting the SXV100 Vehicle Tuner. Locate the SiriusXM connector on the headunit and connect the SXV100. The headunit may have a panel mount type connector, or it may have a pigtail type connector.

Secure the Tuner

Secure the SXV100 Vehicle Tuner behind the vehicle headunit location or under the dash using wire ties (not included).

Thread the wire ties through the moulded brackets on the underside of the Tuner as shown. Then secure it to a bracket or wiring harness using the wire ties. Avoid brackets with sharp edges and any moving parts such as gas and brake pedals.

Subscribe

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.

Hide the antenna wire inside the vehicle cabin by routing the cable under the carpet and behind plastic trim, toward the headunit location. Coil and secure any excess cable in a hidden location, such as under the carpet, using wire ties (not included).

CAUTION! Do not kink or sharply fold the antenna cable.
