A Title (English) 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
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 hide-away TV
tuner) as there is the possibility of the XM tuner
interferring with the other unit, and causing poor
reception.
• 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.
