Step 1: Install the Commander Touch Display Controller

WARNING! DO NOT attempt to install Commander Touch while driving . Park your vehicle
in a safe location before beginning installation .
The Commander Touch Display Controller can be
mounted in a variety of ways . It can be adhered
to a dash surface using double sided tape or hook
and loop tape (not included), or directly attached
to a dash surface using the included screws . The
Display Controller has a standard AMPS mounting
pattern on the back which is compatible with
many other types of mounting solutions designed
for vehicles, such as a suction cup windshield
mount, a pedestal mount, a dash mount, a vent
clip mount, etc; consult your retailer or installer .
Depending on your vehicle you may also be able to
use the included Flush Mount for a more integrated
look .
The Commander Touch includes a flush mount installation option which requires cutting an opening
in the dash or console of the vehicle which may or may not be suitable for your specific vehicle . A
professional installer will know if flush mounting is a suitable mounting solution for your vehicle, or
can recommend other installation options that are tailored to your specific vehicle, including custom
designing an installation solution . Please read through this User Guide before making the decision to
install the Commander Touch yourself . SiriusXM recommends professional installation .
NOTE! Installation instructions are provided for your convenience . You must determine if
you have the knowledge, skills, and ability required to properly perform installation .

Installing the Commander Touch Display Controller Using the Flush Mount
1. Locate a suitable place in your dash or center console for installing the Flush Mount . The Flush
Mount requires an opening of 48 mm high x 110 mm wide, and an approximate clearance behind
the dashboard or console of 25 mm depth to accommodate the Mounting Brackets . Avoid any
location which will block or interfere with an airbag, or a location which interferes with the safe
operation of the vehicle .
2. Use a template to assist in cutting the
opening . . Place the template on the area
selected and carefully cut the opening,
following the outline on the template .
3. Once the opening has been cut, remove
the template and place the Flush
Mount in the opening . The Flush Mount
is asymmetrical so the top/bottom
orientation is not important .
