Activating your SIRIUS Subscription

Before you can listen to the Receiver, you must
subscribe to SIRIUS Satellite Radio's service.
1. Make sure that the Sirius Sportster Receiver is
properly connected and that its antenna is
oriented to receive the SIRIUS satellite signal (see
Docking Station Installation and/or Boombox User
Manuals for details).
2. Press the power button to turn the Receiver ON.
After displaying the SIRIUS logo, the Receiver will
update all the SIRIUS channels. The display will
read "UPDATING CHANNELS" on the top line and
"X% Completed" (0%-20%-40%-60%-80%-100%)
on the bottom line until the update completes.
NOTE: Don't push any buttons or perform any
operations until updating has been completed.
Once updated and the SIRIUS channels are
received, the display will change to "Call 1-888-
539-SIRIUS to Subscribe" and will place you in
SIRIUS Satellite Radio's Preview Channel.
Channel 184 is the SIRIUS preview channel. You
will not be able to tune to any other channels until
you activate your SIRIUS subscription.
