continue under the interior trim.

4. Due to the paths of the SIRIUS satellites

over the US, the best location for the

antenna will depend on what part of the

country you live in, the orientation of

your home, and the locations of any

obstructions that could prevent the satel-

lite signal from reaching the antenna.

The best antenna location is on the roof,

facing straight up (

see below

).

• The location of the “X” on the map on page

13 must be visible to the antenna

Note:

The antenna is

weatherproof, so it can

be mounted outside
