Multi-Band Antenna

The antenna located on the roof of the vehicle is used for the OnStar, XM Satellite Radio Service System, and GPS (Global Positioning System), if the vehicle has these features. Keep the antenna clear of obstructions for clear reception.

If the vehicle has a sunroof and it is open, the performance of OnStar, XM, and GPS can be affected.
