vehicle’s FM antenna. A test mounting should be done first using the included suction cup
mounts to test the installation. Once an acceptable location has been found, you will remove
the suction cups and permanently adhere the FM Extender Antenna using the adhesive
mounts.
To install the FM Extender Antenna in your vehicle, follow these instructions:
Attach the suction cups to the FM Extender Antenna in the positions shown in Figure 14.
