Installation Basics/Installation Planning/Cable Routing
2. If the vehicle has roof racks or skid ribs, it may be necessary to mount
the antenna off-center.
3. If the vehicle roof does not provide sufficient metal surface area then
the antenna can be mounted on the metal trunk lid at least 4” from the
rear window.
Caution: DO NOT INSTALL ANTENNA INSIDE VEHICLE PASSENGER
COMPARTMENT. Mounting the antenna in the passenger com-
partment either on the front dash board or on the rear window
deck area of the vehicle may interfere with reception and must
be avoided.
Caution: Mounting the antenna on a non-metallic surface will also re-
sult in severe degradation in reception.
4. If an appropriate antenna mounting location cannot be identified,
contact your local distributor installation department for additional
guidance.
Cable Routing
1. Once you have mounted the antenna in the correct location, plan how
to route the cable from this location to the receiver, avoiding blocked
passages and any obstructions that could kink, crimp, twist or chafe
the cable. If the cable will come in contact with a rough metal opening,
use a rubber grommet to prevent damage.
