Sirius Satellite Radio SP-C1 instruction

Installation in a Vehicle: Mounting the Antenna

1.Temporarily plug the antenna into the “ANT” connector on the back of the cradle until it is firmly seated.

2.Find a location on a metal surface of your vehicle at least 12" x 12", and at least 6" from a window.

3.The antenna’s powerful magnet will secure it to the metal surface. Before routing the antenna cable, confirm that the antenna is mounted in a good location.

4.Temporarily plug the Car Power Adapter into the cigarette lighter.

5.Make sure the lock lever on the back of the cradle is in the UNLOCK position. Slide the SP-R1 Receiver all the way into the cradle so that the connector at the bottom of the unit makes proper contact in the cradle. Move the lock lever to the LOCK position. Press and hold the POWER button to turn the SP-R1 Receiver on.

6.If your SP-R1 Receiver has been properly connected and the antenna is receiving the SIRIUS signal you will hear audio. If you do not hear audio and the display shows “Acquiring Signal”, reposition the antenna until the message goes away and you hear audio. (See Antenna Signal, on page 21 of the SP-R1 Receiver manual to use the ANTENNA SIGNAL screen to aim the antenna.)

•Make sure the vehicle is not in garage, or somewhere the satellite signal could be blocked.

•Best reception is achieved with the antenna mounted on the roof or the trunk for convertibles.

•If the vehicle has a roof rack or skid ribs, it may be necessary to mount the antenna off-center.
