Installation Instructions::
Make sure the installation location is

To install the antenna tail, place it against the antenna and
route cable into the cable channel. Take the tail adhesive
and remove the backing from one side. Place firmly onto
the back of the tail over the routed cable. Then, remove
the backing from the other side of the adhesive.
Place the SIR-Mini with tail on your roof or trunk in the
predetermined antenna location (as shown in Fig.1)
and press down firmly to secure antenna tail.
Route the antenna cable to the SIRIUS receiver.
Avoid blocked passages and any obstructions that
could kink, crimp, twist, or chafe the cable. If the
antenna is located on your vehicle roof then it is
necessary to push the cable under the rear window
molding. (as shown in Fig.2)
Connect the SIR-Mini into the antenna input on the back
of your SIRIUS receiver.
Please refer to your SIRIUS receiver owner’s manual

Pre Installation::
The antenna has a magnetic base and must be installed on
a conductive metal surface on the outside of the vehicle.
Position the antenna in such a way that it will be free of
mechanical (i.e. an outward-opening moon roof) and
line-of-sight obstructions such as roof racks, luggage boxes,
etc. In these instances, consider positioning the antenna
offset from the vehicle centerline.
Recommended installation locations are the roof of the
vehicle above the rear window or on the top of the trunk
near the rear window. (as shown in Fig.1)
