Cable Separation And Routing - Sirius XM RAdio Starmate STS User Manual

Cable Separation and Routing
A
FCC Information
The satellite antenna cable, FM extender antenna (FEA) cable and cigarette lighter
adapter (CLA) power cable must be appropriately separated and routed for your radio to
be compliant with federal regulations.
Step 1
The connections on your vehicle dock
are clearly marked. Install your vehicle
dock and connect the antenna cable into
the connection labeled "ANT", the CLA
power cable into the power connection
marked "PWR" and the FEA cable into
the connection marked "FM OUT".
(See Figure 18.)

It is important that you keep the three cables as separate from each other as possi-
ble and that you keep the two antenna cables away from the vehicle dock and from
the CLA power cable. The cables must not be bundled together as they exit the dock
(see Figure 19, on page 40).
As a guide, you can follow the diagram in Figure 19, adapting the example to suit your
own vehicle's configuration. For example, if you cigarette lighter socket is to the left of
the vehicle dock, route the two antenna cables towards the passenger side of the ve-
hicle. If your cigarette lighter socket is on the right-hand side of the vehic Ie dock, route
the two antenna cables towards the driver's door. The CLA cable and antenna cables
MUST be routed in opposite directions. Safely conceal all antenna cables within door,
carpet or cash panels to prevent snags and interference.
