Installing the GPS Antenna
n
n
CAUTION
Do not paint the antenna. This will impair or disable signal reception.
Remove any object or accumulated snow, etc., from the top of the antenna. It will reduce reception strength.
Do not pull the cord when removing the antenna or adjusting its position. This can cause a short or break the wires.
The
permanent
adhesive on the back of the metal plate is extremely dif
fi
cult to remove after it is installed.
The GPS antenna can be installed either inside or outside the vehicle. It should be mounted horizontally for best GPS reception.
The GPS antenna must have a clear view of the sky. If you install the antenna inside the vehicle, place it close to a window. GPS
signals can pass through glass but not through metal. Refer to the image on the next page for recommended places to install the
antenna. Place the GPS antenna on a metallic surface, such as the roof of your vehicle, for best reception. If a metallic surface is not
available, mount the GPS antenna on the enclosed metal plate. See the next page for further instructions.
