Adhesive Strips


Optimum Antenna Mounting LocationsThe optimum location to mount theincluded antenna is on the roof of thevehicle. It is important to avoid anyobstruction that will block satellite signal– like a roof rack. For convertiblevehicles, install the antenna on the trunklid.

• Place the antenna on a metalsurface of your vehicle at least 12"x 12", and at least 6" from awindow. (Use the antenna cover/tailas a guide for the proper distance).

• The antenna’s powerful magnet willsecure it to the metal surface. Theadhesive that is attached to theantenna cover/tail will secure thecable to the vehicle. Before routingthe antenna cable, confirm that theantenna is mounted in a goodlocation.

• Route the cable from the antenna tothe vehicle’s interior by tucking itunderneath the rubber moldingaround the rear window (ifpossible).

• Route the cable from the lowestpoint of the rear window into thetrunk. Take advantage of any existingcable channels or wiring conduits.

Cable Cover/Tail

• For SUVs, minivans and five-doorvehicles, bring the cable into thevehicle under the rubber moldingfor the tailgate, and continue underthe interior trim.

• From the trunk, carefully route thecable to the location of theSIR-PAN1 and plug the SMBconnector onto the unit.
