Initial installation
1. Loosen the interior trim in the roof at the installation location. In
order to loosen the “headliner”, fi rst the side panel (C column),
depending on the type of vehicle, must be removed.
2. Remove the paint from the inside of the antenna hole in order to
ensure the antenna is properly grounded. Place some protective
grease on the metal to protect against corrosion.
3. Hang the seal support (c) on the existing nose of the antenna
base (b). Carefully put the edge of the sealing support ring (c)
over the antenna base (b).
4. Insert the antenna base (b) with sealing support ring (c) and
antenna cable (e) with power cable (f) into the antenna hole from
the outside.
5. Pull the hexagon nut with sprocket (g) over the antenna cable (e)
and lightly secure to the antenna base (b).
6. If the sealing support ring (c) and antenna base (b) are sitting
properly, the hexagon nut with sprocket (e) can be tightened with
a 22 mm, 7 nM wrench.
7. Connect the antenna cable (e) and power cable (f) of the
antenna with the existing cable in the roof.
8. Verify radio reception.
9. Replace the paneling again.
10. Replace the cladding again.
* If there is no antenna cable available, then an antenna cable
should be installed on the roof from right up to the A column
to the radio. It is important to ensure that the cable does not
become stretched, crimped or kinked. The distance to other
cables in the vehicle should be as great as possible.
When using a retrofi t car radio, either a phantom power adapter
must be installed or a separate power cable must be laid to the
antenna. The power cable is connected at the respective remote
output of the retrofi t car radio.
