Docking the Sirius Receiver

Place the SIRIUS receiver into the dock, aligning the connector on the receiver with the con- nector on the docking station, and gently press the receiver down until it is fully seated in the dock.

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 considerations for antenna placement:

BEST reception can be achieved by placing the antenna outside on the roof, with a clear 360 degree view of the sky. This position will afford the best view of the sky for best reception. When placed in this location, an antenna extension cable may be required.

BETTER reception can be achieved by placing the antenna outside a window, or by mounting it to the side of the house. In either case, try to achieve the best possible clear view of the sky.

GOOD reception can be achieved by placing your antenna in a window. Try to achieve a clear unobstructed view of the sky. If your location is in major metropolitan area, the antenna may be located inside the home because terrestrial transmitters are used to boost signal strength.

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 satel- lites, as shown in the following map diagram. (Figure 3)
