Installation
SIRIUS suggests that you have your Stratus 4 professionally-installed in your vehicle.
Professional installation provides an experienced technician to install this product in your
vehicle, advice for selecting a suitable mounting location for the Vehicle Dock, installation of
the antenna, and proper routing of all the necessary wires and cables. If the locations of your
SIRIUS radio and your vehicle's FM antenna make the performance the SIRIUS radio's built-
in FM transmitter within your vehicle poor, a professional installer will have the necessary
accessories to install an optional FM Direct Adapter or audio cable to connect the audio output
of the Vehicle Dock directly to your vehicle's audio system. Ask your SIRIUS retailer if they
provide professional installation services, or can recommend a professional installation
service.
Location
When installing the Vehicle Dock in your vehicle, choose a location in your vehicle where
it will not block your vision, interfere with the vehicle controls, or obstruct the air bag.
The location should be easily accessible and provide good visibility of the display, and
should not be located where it will be in direct sunlight which will affect the visibility of
the display screen.
Figure 1 shows two examples of the Stratus 4 mounted in a vehicle: A is the dash mount
method, and B is the vent mount method using the vent mount clip.
