Step 2: Install the Dash or Vent Mount
Depending on your situation, you can either choose to use the Dash Mount or the Vent Mount.
IMPORTANT! When you install the chosen mount, do not attach the dock to the mount. All cables should be attached to the dock prior to connecting the dock to the mount.
3 The dock mounting plate can be tilted in different directions.
Adjust as necessary for your particular vehicle. When the orientation is correct, tighten the knob.
Installing the Dash Mount:
CAUTION! The adhesive used on the Dash Mount may be difficult to remove. Do not install this mount on leather surfaces and make sure the air temperature is at least 15˚C (60˚F) during installation.
1 Locate a flat surface for the Dash Mount. Make sure there is ample
room for the PowerConnect Vehicle Dock and onyX Radio when installed.
2 Set the orientation of the Dash Mount before adhering it. Loosen the
knob and adjust the adhesive foot for the location you selected in “Step 1: Choose a Location for Your
I II
Radio” on page 14.
•Option 1 & 3 should be oriented as I.
4 Clean the surface with the
alcohol preparation pad and let it dry thoroughly.
5 Peel off the adhesive liner.
Position, press, and hold the Dash Mount in place for 30 seconds.
IMPORTANT! Once the mount is attached to the dash, let the adhesive cure (dry) for 24 hours before attaching the dock and radio to the mount.
TIP! To remove, carefully lift the adhesive pad with your fingers or a spoon. Warming the pad with a hair dryer for several minutes will help soften the adhesive.
•Option 2 should be oriented as II.

Step 3: Mount the Magnetic Mount Antenna
The Magnetic Mount Antenna contains a strong magnet which will stick to any metal part of your vehicle, but will not damage the vehicle.
To install the Magnetic Mount Antenna:
1 Choose the best location for your antenna considering
your vehicle type. Pay particular attention to any accessories that you may have like luggage racks and how frequently you may use them.
Sedan/Coupe: We recommend mounting the antenna just above either
the front windshield or the back window as shown.

Magnet
SUV: We recommend mounting the antenna at the rear of the roof
as shown.
Convertible: We recommend mounting the antenna at the leading
edge of the trunk as shown.
Pickup Truck: We recommend
mounting the antenna just above the front windshield as shown.
2 Clean the surface of the selected
mounting location using the alcohol preparation pad and let it dry thoroughly.
Vehicle Installation
3 Place the antenna in the location you selected. Follow the Tips and
Cautions shown on the next several pages.
TIP! Mount the antenna on the roof (for most vehicles) or trunk (for convertibles) where it has a clear view of the sky in all directions.
CAUTION! Don’t mount the antenna inside the vehicle, for example, on the dashboard.
CAUTION! Don’t mount the antenna on any of the vehicle’s front, back or side pillars.
CAUTION! Don’t mount the antenna close to a roof rack. Adjust the rack so it’s further away from the antenna or move the antenna closer to the center of the roof.
22 23
Vehicle Installation
CAUTION! Don’t mount the antenna close to another antenna. Mount it at least 7.5 cm (3 inches) away.
Step 4: Route the Magnetic Mount Antenna Cable
Before you begin routing the antenna cable, read these general instructions for how to route and hide the antenna cable. Then route your antenna cable according to the instructions which follow for your specific type of vehicle.

Vehicle Installation
• Sedan/Coupe With Antenna Placed at the Rear of the Roof:
1. Feed the antenna cable from the antenna underneath the rubber molding around the rear window. Use a blunt plastic putty knife or similar blunt tool to lift the rubber molding around the rear window and tuck the antenna cable underneath the molding. Route the antenna cable around and down the window to the lowest point. If your rear window does not have rubber molding, we recommend consulting a professional installer.
2. Route the antenna cable out of the window molding and into the rubber weather stripping around the trunk opening. Lift the weather stripping from the opening and tuck the cable inside it, then replace the weather stripping. To avoid sharp bends in the cable, run the cable inside the weather stripping for a few inches, then remove the cable from the weather stripping inside the trunk. Keep the cable away from hinges, gears, etc., that could damage it.
3. Route the cable out from the rubber weather stripping and along the trunk wall. Continue routing the cable into the vehicle cabin through a conduit or along an existing wiring harness.
4. Route the cable through the main cabin area under the interior trim, towards the front of the vehicle. Use a blunt plastic putty
30 31
knife or similar blunt tool to lift the plastic trim just enough to tuck the cable under underneath. Avoid side airbag locations on back pillars and above the doors. Airbag locations are marked with “SRS” logos. Be careful not to crimp or cut the cable.
5. Bring the cable out from the trim near the front of the cabin and route it under the carpet toward the dashboard or console. Coil any excess cable in a hidden location, such as under the carpet, keeping it away from any vehicle pedals or controls. Secure the excess cable with wire ties (purchased separately).
6. Bring the end of the cable out at the PowerConnect Vehicle Dock location. Leave yourself enough cable so you can easily connect it to the antenna connector of the dock.
7. Continue with “Step 5: Connect the Magnetic Mount Antenna and PowerConnect Power Adapter” on page 37.

2. At the lowest corner of the windshield, route the cable out of the windshield molding and into the rubber weather stripping around the door opening. Lift the weather stripping from the opening and tuck the cable inside it, then replace the weather stripping. Run the cable inside of the weather stripping to the bottom of the door opening.
3. Pull the cable out of the weather stripping at the bottom of the door opening and route it under the carpet toward the dashboard. Coil any excess cable in a hidden location, such as under the carpet, keeping it away from any vehicle pedals or controls. Secure the excess cable with wire ties.
