4. Place the antenna so that the base is flush with the
back of the Audio System, and then slide down approxi-
mately 3/8ths of an inch so that the tab at the base of the
Audio System lines up with the slot in the bottom of the
antenna.
5. Position the antenna by pivoting the half with the XM
logo away from the back of the Audio System and turning
the entire Audio System until you get the strongest signal.
6. Use the “Antenna Aiming” screen as described in the
previous section to optimize the antenna tilt angle and
position.
If you are unable to receive a signal, then position the
antenna as described in one of the next two sections.

Indoor installation on a flat surface
To aim your antenna at the satellite:
1. Set antenna flat against its base on a flat (horizontal) surface.
2. Turn the base of the antenna so that the XM logo is
facing to the south.
3. Use the “Antenna Aiming” screen to optimize antenna
tilt angle and position.
4. If necessary, experiment with different locations near
a south-facing window or outside.
Your antenna comes with 20 feet of cable. If that is not
sufficient to locate the antenna where there is a strong
XM signal, purchase a 50-foot cable extension (Delphi
model number SA10006) from your SKYFi
TM
retailer. Up
to eight extensions can be used together for up to 40 0
total feet of cable.
2. Fold the antenna down flat against its base.
3. Position the antenna so that the XM logo is upside down, then place the antenna base
against the back of the Audio System so that the four pegs line up with the four slots in the
antenna base.
Outdoor installation or indoor wall mounting
The antenna can also be attached vertically to an external or internal wall if that is more
convenient than placing it on a horizontal surface.
1. Holding your antenna up, find a wall location that ensures a strong signal. It is recom-
mended that you use an extension cord to temporarily locate your SKYFi
TM
Home stand
outdoors while optimizing the antenna location with the “ Antenna Aiming” screen.
