Page 14: Installing The Indoor/Outdoor Antenna
Installing the Indoor/Outdoor Antenna Before installing the indoor/outdoor antenna, read this entire section. To ensure consistent reception of the SIRIUS signal in your home, it is important that the antenna be oriented correctly. Note the following Best, Better, and Good consider- ations for antenna placement. - Page 15 figure 4 figure 4 GOOD reception can be achieved by placing the antenna indoors on a windowsill. The window will need to be facing in the direction of the SIRIUS satellites, as de- scribed later, and have a clear view of the sky. The antenna may need to be placed on a book to raise it above the level of the window frame.
- Page 16 figure 5 figure 5 If you cannot obtain a clear 360 degree view of the sky (Best), then for the Better and Good installations you must at least have a clear view of the sky in the direction of the SIRIUS satellites, as shown in the following map diagram.
- Page 17 NORTH WEST EAST HORIZON SOUTH figure 6 figure 6 Use the map to find the area you are located in (1 to 5). Then find the direction in which you need to have a clear view of the sky: Area 1: You will need a location with a clear view of the sky facing EAST or NORTHEAST or SOUTHEAST Area 2: You will need a location with a clear view of the sky facing NORTH or NORTHEAST...
- Page 18 The location for the antenna must have an unobstructed view of the sky in the direction indicated for your area. (Figure 7) For example, suppose you live in Area 2. You determined that your antenna will need to have a clear view of the sky facing North or Northeast. The exact direction is determined by your specific location in Area 2 relative to the X on the map: If you live in Texas, you will need a more North facing clear view of the sky whereas if you live in southern California, you will need a more Northeast facing clear view of the sky.
- Page 19 Testing and Optimizing the antenna Signal Strength The stronger the SIRIUS signal strength, the less likely it is that you will experience an interruption of the audio when listening to a broadcast. To assist you in adjusting the antenna aiming for optimal reception, your SIRIUS radio or SIRIUS-Ready receiver can display a screen showing the strength of the SIRIUS signal being received, similar to Figure 8.
- Page 20 THIS SURFACE OF THE ANTENNA SHOULD BE POINTED AT THE SKY TOWARDS THE DIRECTION OF THE SATELLITES figure 9 figure 9 The second adjustment is to turn the antenna slightly to the left or right until the high- est possible signal strength is achieved. (Figure 10) figure 10 figure 10 Installation...

Page 21: Connecting The Ac Power Adapter
If you find that it is not possible to receive a good SIRIUS signal in your location, SIRIUS offers a outdoor home antenna which can be mounted to the exterior of the home. The outdoor home antenna offers more mounting options, such as mounting on an existing mast or satellite dish mast, and provides 30 ft. -
Page 22: Operation
Operation Before you can listen to the SIRIUS service, you need to subscribe to the Sirius Satel- lite Radio service if you have not done so already. Please be sure to follow the activa- tion instructions for your specific SIRIUS radio as well as your receiver.
