Fixed Mast Antenna
The fixed mast antenna can withstand
most car washes without being
damaged. If the mast should ever
become slightly bent, you can straighten
it out by hand. If the mast is badly bent,
as it might be by vandals, you should
replace it.
Check every once in a while to be sure
the mast is still tightened to the fender.

Power Antenna Mast Care
Your power antenna will look its best
and work well if it’s cleaned from time
to time.
To Clean the Antenna Mast:
1. Turn on the ignition and radio to
raise the antenna to
full mast
extension.
2. Dampen a clean cloth with mineral
spirits or equivalent solvent.
3. Wipe the cloth over the mast sections,
removing any dirt.
4. Wipe dry with a clean cloth before
retracting.
5. Make the antenna go up and down by
turning the radio or ignition on and off.
6. Then repeat if necessary. Don’t
lubricate the power antenna.
Lubrication could damage it.

Before entering an automatic car
wash, turn off your radio to make
the power antenna go down. This
will prevent the mast from possibly
getting damaged. If the antenna
does not go down when you turn
the radio off, it may be damaged or
need to be cleaned. In either case,
lower
the antenna by hand by
carefully pressing
the antenna
down.
If the mast portion of your antenna is
damaged, you can easily replace it. See
your dealer for a replacement lut, and
follow the instructions in the
kit.
