 You can also set a specific version of the CLI to install with the `VERSION` environment variable:
 
 ```
-curl -fLSs https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CircleCI-Public/circleci-cli/main/install.sh | VERSION=0.1.5222 sudo bash
+curl -fLSs https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CircleCI-Public/circleci-cli/main/install.sh | sudo VERSION=0.1.5222 bash
 ```
 
+Take note that additional environment variables should be passed between sudo and invoking bash.

 #### Checksum verification
 
 If you would like to verify the checksum yourself, you can download the checksum file from the [GitHub releases page](https://github.com/CircleCI-Public/circleci-cli/releases) and verify the checksum of the archive using the `circleci-cli_<version>_checksums.txt` inside the assets of the release you'd like to install:
