If anything is missing or damaged, or if your the radio fails to operate, notify your dealer immediately. We recommend that you retain the original carton and packing materials in case you need to ship your radio in the future. 12 [ Package Contents ] Installation SIRIUS suggests that you have your InV2 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 Dash Mount, 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 your InV2’s audio output directly to your vehicle’s audio system. Ask your SIRIUS retailer if they provide professional installation services, or can recommend a professional installation service. [ Installation ] 13 Location When installing the Dash Mount 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 InV2 mounted on a vehicle’s dashboard. A is left of the steering wheel; B is right of the wheel. A. B. Figure 1 14 [ Installation ] Attaching the Adhesive Dash Mount Select the mounting position carefully before adhering the mount to your vehicle. Once the mount has been adhered to a surface, it will not be possible to remove it and adhere it again. Once you’ve selected a mounting location, clean the mounting surface area in the vehicle with the provided alcohol swab. Peel the protective material off the adhesive on the foot and press the foot firmly against the vehicle surface (see Figure 2). 1. Clean Mounting Area with Swab 2. Peel Cover From Adhesive Foot 3. Press Adhesive Foot Firmly On Mounting Area Figure 2 Allow the adhesive to adhere for a minimum of 2-4 hours before using the mount. The best adhesion occurs after 24 hours. [ Installation ] 15 Installing the Magnetic Antenna Caution Because adhesive is used in the installation of the Rubber Antenna Cover/Tail, we recommend that you install the antenna at or above room temperature (68° F). The adhesive on the Rubber Cover/Tail may not adhere properly to the vehicle roof at temperatures lower than this. Warmer temperatures will also make it easier to route of the antenna cable through the rubber molding around the windows and in other areas in the vehicle. Maximum adhesion usually occurs within 72 hours at room temperature, so you should avoid car washes as well as other contact with the antenna and Rubber Cover/Tail during this 72 hour period. Warning Be sure not to cut, damage, or puncture the external jacket of the antenna cable during the installation procedure. Damage to the antenna cable can degrade the SIRIUS signal or make it unavailable, and can also cause water to intrude via the cable into the antenna causing the antenna to fail. Do not lengthen or shorten the antenna cable by cutting it. Doing so will cause the antenna to not function properly. Installation Installing the magnetic antenna consists of two steps: • Mounting the magnetic antenna and Rubber Antenna Cover/Tail on the vehicle • Routing the antenna cable through the vehicle to the Vehicle Dock 16 [ Installation ] ANTENNA MOUNTING The SIRIUS Magnetic Mount Vehicle Antenna has a strong magnetic mount designed to hold it in place during normal driving conditions (highway/city). This also makes the antenna easy to remove for transferring it to other vehicles. Figure 3 shows the optimal mounting location for the antenna on several types of vehicles. These mounting positions should be observed when installing the antenna: Sedan/Coupe Pickup Truck SUV/Mini-Van Convertible Figure 3 • Sedan/Coupe/SUV/Mini-Van: Install the antenna at the rear center of the roof, near the rear window. • Pickup Truck: Install the antenna at the front center of the roof, near the windshield. • Convertible: Install the antenna at the front center of the trunk lid, near the rear window. [ Installation ] 17 The SIRIUS antenna needs to have an unobstructed area of 3 inches by 3 inches around it. It is important to mount the antenna where no obstructions will block the antenna from receiving the SIRIUS signal. Objects which can obstruct the antenna could be a roof rack, a sunroof, a roof-mounted cargo container, another antenna, etc. If your vehicle has a potential obstruction, be sure that the SIRIUS antenna is mounted at least 3 inches away from it (but no closer than 3 inches from the roof edge, or trunk lid in the case of a convertible). Note: Read the DO and DO NOT installation tips beginning on page 28 for additional antenna installation information. Follow this procedure to mount the antenna: 1. Select an appropriate mounting position for your type of vehicle that has an unobstructed area of 3 inches by 3 inches around the antenna. 2. Attach the Rubber Cover/Tail to the antenna, as shown in Figure 4, and press the antenna cable into the rubber cover/tail. The Rubber Cover/Tail will help to position the antenna the correct distance from the edge of the roof or trunk lid. Protective Strips Strain Relief Rubber Antenna Cover/Tail Cable Magnetic Antenna (Upside-Down) Figure 4 3. Clean the surface area of the vehicle where you will be installing the antenna with the alcohol prep pad. 18 [ Installation ] 4. Peel the protective material from the adhesive strips (see Figure 4, on page 18) and press the rubber Cover/Tail firmly into place on the vehicle. 5. Double check that the location of the antenna and rubber cover/tail are correct, and continue to press firmly down on the Rubber Cover/Tail for another 30 seconds. At room temperature (68° F), maximum adhesion usually occurs within 72 hours. During this period, avoid car washes and other contact with the antenna and the Rubber Antenna Cover/Tail. CABLE ROUTING After you have mounted the antenna you can route the antenna cable to the SIRIUS Vehicle Dock. Separate antenna cable routing procedures are provided for each type of vehicle: Sedan/Coupe, Pickup Truck, SUV/Mini-Van and Convertible.

[ Installation ] 27 TIPS The following DO and DO NOT antenna mounting tips illustrate how to install the antenna for optimal performance, and also illustrate where the antenna should not be installed. DO Mount the antenna on the roof, at least 3 inches from the edge. DO Mount the antenna on the roof where it has a clear view of the sky in all directions. 28 [ Installation ] DO Mount the antenna on the roof where it has at least 3 inches of clear space around it. DO Use the supplied Rubber Tail Cover to protect the antenna cable. 3” [ Installation ] 29 DO NOT Don’t mount the antenna inside the vehicle, for example, on the dashboard. DO NOT Don’t mount the antenna on any of the vehicle’s front, back or side pillars. 30 [ Installation ] DO NOT Don’t mount the antenna close to a roof rack. Adjust the rack so it’s further away from the antenna or move the antenna closer to the center of the roof. DO NOT Don’t mount the antenna close to another antenna. Mount it at least 3 inches away. [ Installation ] 31 DO NOT Don’t mount the antenna closer than 3 inches from the edge of the roof. Use the supplied rubber tail/ cover as a guide for judging proper length and correct positioning. Docking Your SIRIUS InV2 To place your SIRIUS radio into the Dash Mount, gently slide the U-shaped fitting on the back of the InV2 unit into the Dash Mount until it snaps into place (see Figure 9). Figure 9 32 [ Installation ] Connecting the Antenna After you’ve routed the antenna cable to the Dash Mount and docked the InV2, connect the antenna cable to the A NT connection on the unit’s left side (see Figure 10.) InV SI2 Unit (Left Side) Antenna Connection Antenna Cable Connector Figure 10 Connecting the Cigarette Lighter Adapter Connect the provided cigarette lighter adapter to the 5VDC connector on the left side of the InV2 unit. (See Figure 11.) Cigarette Lighter Adapter InV SI2 Unit (Left Side) 12V Power Outlet 5V DC Connection Figure 11 Note: Do not power the InV2 directly from your vehicle’s 12VDC power system without using the Cigarette Lighter Adapter. This could damage your SIRIUS radio. [ Installation ] 33 Connecting Your SIRIUS InV2 to Your Vehicle’s Audio System There are two ways to connect your SIRIUS InV2 to your vehicle’s audio system: Direct Connection or Wireless Connection. Which one will perform best in your vehicle depends on your vehicle’s audio system. For the latest information go to http://www.sirius.com/vehicleinstallation. Direct Wired Audio Connection If your vehicle’s audio system has an “A UX I N” or “L INE I N” jack it is the best-quality audio connection you can use for your SIRIUS radio. (And if the A UX IN or LINE IN connector is located somewhere on the front of your vehicle radio or elsewhere in the cabin, this is also the easiest way to connect your SIRIUS receiver.) 1. Purchase an audio cable that matches the connection type of your vehicle’s audio system and your SIRIUS InV2 unit at your local electronics retailer. • The InV2 unit requires a male 1/8” stereo connector. 2. Plug the cable’s male 1/8” stereo connector into the A UDIO jack on the left side of the InV2 unit. Plug the other end into the AUX IN /LINE I N connector on your vehicle’s audio system. (See Figure 12.) InV SI2 Unit (Left Side) Vehicle Radio AUDIO Jack To AUX IN or LINE IN Connector Stereo Cable (Sold Separately) Figure 12 34 [ Installation ] Direct FM Audio Connection If your vehicle’s audio system does not have an Aux In/Line In connection, a SIRIUS FM Direct Adapter (sold separately) will provide the next best quality connection between your SIRIUS InV2 and your vehicle radio. You will listen to your SIRIUS radio through your car radio’s FM tuner, but the SIRIUS FM Direct Adapter connects your vehicle’s FM radio directly to your SIRIUS radio’s FM Out jack, eliminating the outside static and interference you sometimes experience when using a wireless FM connection. (See Figure 13.) Vehicle Antenna InV SI2 Unit (Left Side) Vehicle Radio FM Direct Adapter (Sold Separately) FM Mode FM OUT Jack Antenna Connection Figure 13 NOTE: Professional installation may be required. See your local SIRIUS retailer. The SIRIUS FM Direct Adapter is available at your local SIRIUS retailer or at http://shop.sirius.com. Follow to the instructions included with the FM Direct Adapter. [ Installation ] 35 Cassette Adapter If your vehicle’s audio system has a cassette player you can purchase a cassette adapter from your local electronics retailer or from SIRIUS at http://shop.sirius.com. Plug the adapter’s connector into the A UDIO jack on the left side of the InV2 unit, and insert the adapter into your vehicle’s cassette player. (See Figure 14.) Cassette Adapter (Sold Separately) InV SI2 Unit (Left Side) Vehicle Radio AUDIO Jack Cassette Mode Figure 14 Note: Refer to the cassette adapter’s instructions for correct use. 36 [ Installation ] Wireless Audio Connection If you cannot connect your SIRIUS InV2 directly to your vehicle’s audio system, it contains an FM transmitter that will ‘broadcast’ its audio to your vehicle’s FM radio. To use this you need to tune the InV2’s FM transmitter to an FM frequency that’s not being used in your area (see Figure 15). If you use an FM channel that is being used by a local broadcaster, it will interfere with the performance of your SIRIUS radio. Vehicle Radio MATCH CHANNELS SIRIUS InV SI2 Figure 15 1. Use your vehicle radio’s Tune function (not the Scan function) to tune through its FM channels to find an FM channel (between 88.1MHz and 107.9MHz) that is not broadcasting in your area. • If you’re not sure which FM channels are not broadcasting in your home or travel cities, you can also go to http://www.sirius.com/fmchannel and search for a suggested FM channel based on your zip code. 2. Once you have located an FM channel that is not broadcasting in your area, save it as a preset on your vehicle radio. This will become your SIRIUS preset. 3. Dock your SIRIUS receiver and turn its power ON. Wait for the Channel Update to finish before pressing any buttons. [ Installation ] 37 4. Press and hold the FM P RESETS button. The InV2’s display will show the FM1 preset frequency (see Figure 16). Channel UP/DOWN Buttons FM Presets Button Select Button Figure 16 Note: FM1 is factory-set to 88.1MHz. This may not be the best frequency for your area. 5. Press the Select button to select the FM1 preset. 6. Use the Channel UP/DOWN buttons to browse-through the different FM channels until the channel you saved as a preset in Step 2 on page 37 appears (see Figure 17). Figure 17 7. Press the Select button. The new channel will now be the FM1 preset. To listen to your SIRIUS radio, turn your SIRIUS radio ON, then turn your vehicle’s FM radio ON and press the SIRIUS preset you set in Step 2, on page 37. You should hear your SIRIUS radio through your vehicle’s FM radio. 38 [ Installation ] TIP: If you regularly travel between cities with different active FM channels, you may need to find channels that are not broadcasting in each city. Your SIRIUS InV2 can store 5 different preset FM transmitter channels so you can easily switch to the best FM channel for each city. Wireless Audio Connection Using the FM Extender Antenna Your SIRIUS radio includes an FM Extender Antenna (FEA) that can maximize the audio quality of your SIRIUS radio when using a Wireless Connection. The FM Extender Antenna brings the FM signal transmitted from your SIRIUS radio into close proximity with your vehicle’s FM antenna to provide a strong FM signal for good reception (see Figure 18). Vehicle FM Antenna Vehicle Radio FM Extender Antenna SIRIUS InV SI2 Match Channels Figure 18 Because of the different kinds and locations of radio antennas found in different vehicles, SIRIUS suggests that the FM Extender Antenna be professionally installed in your vehicle. Professional installation provides an experienced technician to install the Extender Antenna, knowledge of your vehicle for locating its radio antenna, and routing the cable and connecting it to your SIRIUS radio. Ask your SIRIUS retailer if they provide professional installation services, or can recommend a professional installation service. [ Installation ] 39 IMPORTANT NOTE The FM Extender Antenna is placed inside your vehicle in close proximity to the vehicle’s FM antenna. In order for it to provide a strong FM signal for good reception, it MUST be mounted in the correct location and orientation, as described in the following section. The correct mounting location and orientation is determined by the type and location of the vehicle’s FM antenna. WARNING AND SAFETY INFORMATION Safety Precautions Be sure to observe the following warnings. Failure to follow these safety instructions and warnings may result in a serious accident and/or personal injury. • Installation must be performed according to this installation guide. SIRIUS is not responsible for issues arising from installations not performed according to the procedures in this guide. • Do not install the FM Extender Antenna where it will hinder or block your view. In some states it may be illegal to mount it on the windshield of your vehicle. Check applicable law for any restrictions or limitations before installing the extender cable on your windshield. • Do not install the FM Extender Antenna where it may hinder the function of safety devices such as an airbag. Doing so may prevent the airbag from functioning properly in the event of an accident. • The installation and use suggestions contained in this manual are subject to any restrictions or limitations that may be imposed by applicable law. The purchaser should check applicable law for any restrictions or limitations before installing the extender cable. 40 [ Installation ] WARNING Notice To Drivers In California and Minnesota State law prohibits drivers in California and Minnesota from using suction mounts on their windshields while operating motor vehicles. Other dashboard or friction mounting options should be used. SIRIUS does not take any responsibility for any fines, penalties, or damages that may be incurred as a result of disregarding this notice. (See California Vehicle Code Section 26708(a); Minnesota Statutes 2005, Section 169.71) A NOTE ABOUT THE INSTALLATION PROCEDURE Before you permanently mount the FM Extender Antenna (FEA), you will first mount it using the included suction cup mounts to test the installation. Once you find an acceptable location, you will remove the suction cups and permanently adhere the FEA using its adhesive mounts. [ Installation ] 41 INSTALLATION Step 1: Determine the type and location of your vehicle’s FM antenna The key to properly installing the FEA in your vehicle is being able to determine the type and location of your vehicle’s FM antenna. The type and location of the FM antenna in your vehicle should be one of the following (see Figure 19, opposite): A. Whip/aerial mounted on the front fender or hood: A fixed or retractable aerial antenna located on the front fender or hood of the vehicle. B. Whip/aerial mounted in the A-pillar of car frame: A fixed or retractable aerial antenna located in the A-pillar of the vehicle’s frame. C. In-glass, in the rear windshield: Several lengths of wire in the rear windshield glass, usually near the top of the window. There is a difference between the FM antenna and the rear window defroster wires found in many vehicles. The FM antenna wires have uneven spacing, breaks in the wires, and some of the wires do not run from edge-toedge in the glass, while the rear window defroster wires have uniform spacing and all wires run from edge-to-edge in the glass. D. Whip/aerial mounted on rear part of roof: A whip or aerial antenna mounted on the rear part of the roof (often just above the rear windshield glass). The whip or aerial should be 7 inches or longer. E. Whip/aerial mounted on the rear fender or trunk: A fixed or retractable whip or aerial antenna located on the rear fender or trunk of the vehicle. F. Whip/aerial mounted on front part of roof: A whip or aerial antenna mounted on the front part of the roof (often just above the front windshield glass). The whip or aerial should be 7 inches or longer. G. In-glass, in the front windshield: One or more strands of wire in the front windshield, usually near the top of the windshield. H. In-glass, in a rear side window: Several strands of wires in a rear side window, often found in SUVs, mini-vans and station wagons. 42 [ Installation ] A. C. F. B. E. D. G. H. Figure 19 [ Installation ] 43 Step 2: Prepare the FEA for temporary installation Attach the suction cups to the antenna portion of the FEA in the positions shown in Figure 20. The antenna portion of the FEA is the relatively thinner section of the cable in between the bead and the arrow that transmits the FM signal to your vehicle’s FM antenna. ARROW ATTACH SUCTION CUPS AS SHOWN ON BOTH ENDS OF THE THIN WIRE THIS THINNER PORTION OF THE FEA IS WHAT TRANSMITS THE FM SIGNAL TO YOUR VEHICLE’S FM ANTENNA BEAD ANTENNA CABLE CONNECTS TO YOUR SIRIUS VEHICLE DOCK’S FM OUT CONNECTOR DURING THE FINAL INSTALLATION USE THE CABLE GUIDES TO HOLD THE CABLE IN POSITION UNTIL IT REACHES THE INNER TRIM OR MOULDING Figure 20 Step 3: Use the suction cups to temporarily install the FEA according to your vehicle’s antenna type On the next several pages you will find the FEA mounting location for your type of FM antenna (A, B, C, etc.). Before attaching the FEA, clean the area where the suction cups will be mounted with the supplied alcohol swab. The FEA wire between the two suction cups should be pulled taut and as straight as possible, and should not obstruct the driver’s view. 44 [ Installation ] For vehicles with A and B type FM antennas: • Whip/aerial mounted on the front fender or hood • Whip/aerial mounted in the A-pillar of car frame A. B. Mount FEA at Edge of Windshield Nearest to Vehicle Antenna Alternate Mounting Location on Adjacent A-Pillar Figure 21 Mount the FEA vertically on the front windshield at the edge of the glass, on the same side as the vehicle’s antenna (i.e. nearest to the antenna). See Figure 21. Clean the suction cup mounting areas with the alcohol swab. The FEA wire between the two suction cups should be pulled taut, and as straight as possible, and should not obstruct the driver’s view. Caution: In some states it may not be legal to put the FEA on the windshield glass. In this case, the FEA should be mounted on the A-Pillar adjacent to the vehicle’s FM antenna. [ Installation ] 45 For vehicles with C and D type FM antennas: • In-glass, in the rear windshield • Whip/aerial mounted on rear part of roof C. D. FM ANTENNA Mount FEA on Rear Windshield DEFROSTER WIRES Figure 22 Mount the FEA horizontally along the top edge of the rear windshield (see Figure 22). For vehicles with a rooftop antenna, center the FEA below the antenna whip. For vehicles with an in-glass antenna, the FEA should be directly over one of the FM antenna’s wires. Note: Do not install the FEA over the defroster wires (see inset on Figure 22). Clean the suction cup mounting areas with the alcohol swab. The FEA wire between the two suction cups should be pulled taut, and as straight as possible, and should not obstruct the driver’s view. 46 [ Installation ] For vehicles with an E type FM antenna: • Whip/aerial mounted on the rear fender or trunk E. Mount FEA at Edge of Windshield Nearest to Vehicle Antenna Figure 23 Mount the FEA vertically on the rear windshield at the edge of the glass, on the same side as the vehicle’s antenna (i.e. nearest to the antenna). See Figure 23. Clean the suction cup mounting areas with the alcohol swab. The FEA wire between the two suction cups should be pulled taut, and as straight as possible, and should not obstruct the driver’s view. [ Installation ] 47 For vehicles with F or G type FM antennas: • Whip/aerial mounted on the front part of roof • In-glass, in the front windshield F. G. Alternate Mounting Location Tucked Into Headliner Mount FEA Along Top Edge of Windshield Figure 24 Mount the FEA horizontally along the top edge of the front windshield or install it into the headliner of the vehicle just above the front windshield (see Figure 24). For vehicles with a rooftop antenna, center the FEA below the antenna whip. For vehicles with an in-glass antenna, the FEA should be directly over the antenna wire itself. Clean the suction cup mounting areas with the alcohol swab. The FEA wire between the two suction cups should be pulled taut, and as straight as possible, and should not obstruct the driver’s view. Caution: In some states it may not be legal to put the FEA on the windshield, so the FEA should be installed into the headliner. Remove the suction cups and tuck the wire into the headliner, stretched taut and straight. 48 [ Installation ] For vehicles with an H type FM antenna: • In-glass, in a rear side window H. Mount FEA Directly Over Antenna Wires Figure 25 Mount the FEA directly over the in-glass antenna wires. If the antenna wires are vertical, mount the FEA vertically on the glass; if the in-glass antenna wires are horizontal, mount the FEA horizontally on the glass. (See Figure 25.) Clean the suction cup mounting areas with the alcohol swab. The FEA wire between the two suction cups should be pulled taut, and as straight as possible, and should not obstruct the driver’s view. [ Installation ] 49 Step 4: Temporarily plug the FEA into the InV2’s FM OUT connector See Figure 26. InV SI2 Unit (Left Side) FM OUT Jack Cable From FM Extender Antenna Figure 26 Step 5: Tune your vehicle’s FM radio to an FM channel that’s not being used in your area Use your vehicle radio’s Tune function (not the Scan function) to find an FM channel (between 88.1MHz and 107.9MHz) that is not broadcasting in your area. If you’re not sure which FM channels are not broadcasting in your home or travel cities, you can also go to http://sirius.com/fmchannel and search for a suggested FM channel based on your zip code. • Once you have located an FM channel that is not broadcasting in your area, save it as a preset on your vehicle radio. This will become your SIRIUS preset. 50 [ Installation ] Step 6: Set Your SIRIUS InV2’s FM transmitter to the same FM channel a. Dock your SIRIUS receiver and turn its power ON. Wait for the Channel Update to finish before pressing any buttons. b. Press and hold the FM PRESETS button. The InV2’s display will show the FM1 preset frequency (see Figure 27). Channel UP/DOWN Buttons FM Presets Button Select Button Figure 27 Note: FM1 is factory-set to 88.1MHz. This may not be the best frequency for your area. c. Press the Select button to select the FM1 preset. d. Use the Channel UP/DOWN buttons to browse-through the different FM channels until the channel you saved as a preset in Step 5 on page 50 appears (see Figure 28). Figure 28 e. Press the Select button. The new channel will now be the FM1 preset. To listen to your SIRIUS radio, turn your SIRIUS radio ON, then turn your vehicle’s FM radio ON and press the SIRIUS preset you set in Step 5, on page 50. You should hear your SIRIUS radio through your vehicle’s FM radio. [ Installation ] 51 Step 7: Optimize the placement of the FEA 1. Mute the volume of your InV2. (Press the M ENU button, then select A UDIO LEVEL and turn the volume down to zero. See Audio Level, on page 67.) Note, your SIRIUS radio is still ON. 2. Turn up the volume of your vehicle’s FM radio. If you hear static or interference adjust the position of the FEA until the static or interference is eliminated or minimized (see Figure 29). Figure 29 3. If the level of static or interference is still high, please select another FM channel by repeating Steps 5 & 6, on pages 50 – 51. 52 [ Installation ] Step 8: Permanently install the FEA Note: If you are mounting the FEA in the vehicle’s headliner, skip this step. When you are satisfied with the FEA’s mounting location, remove the suction cup mounts and peel the backing off the bead and arrow adhesive mounts. Clean the area where the FEA will be attached with the alcohol swab. Permanently adhere the FEA in the same position on the glass (or A-pillar), making certain the wire is taut and is as straight as possible (see Figure 30). If necessary, use the cable guides to hold the cable. REMOVE ADHESIVE BACKING FROM ARROW REMOVE BOTH SUCTION CUPS REMOVE ADHESIVE BACKING FROM BEAD THIS THINNER PORTION OF THE FEA SHOULD BE TAUT WHEN THE FEA IS PERMANENTLY ADHERED USE THE CABLE GUIDES TO HOLD THE CABLE IN POSITION UNTIL IT REACHES THE INNER TRIM OR MOULDING Figure 30 [ Installation ] 53 Step 9: Route and hide the cable through the vehicle to the Vehicle Dock Hide the FEA cable by properly routing it to your SIRIUS Vehicle Dock (see Figure 31). Use the cable guides to hold the cable in place until it reaches the inner trim or moulding at the edge of the window. Take advantage of any existing cable channel or wiring conduit and route the cable around the passenger compartment to the Vehicle Dock. Take care not pull the cable across sharp edges that could damage it, and keep it away from areas where it might entangle feet. Coil and secure any excess antenna cable in a location where it can be hidden and secured (such as under the carpet or floor mat). Figure 31 Plug the FEA cable into the Vehicle Dock’s FM O UT connector (see Figure 33, on page 56). 54 [ Installation ] Appendix A: Tips for Identifying the FM Antenna Correctly identifying your vehicle’s FM antenna is a key to successfully installing the FEA. The preceding installation section already showed you the different kinds of FM antennas found on vehicles. However, there are several types of antennas found on vehicles that you may at first believe to be the FM antenna but which in reality are not. Instead they may actually be GPS, OnStar®, cell phone, factory-installed satellite radio antennas, or another type of antenna. Please be aware of the following when identifying your vehicle’s FM antenna: 1. Puck-type antennas and shark-fin type antennas are never the FM antenna. Figure 32 shows several types of these antennas which should not be mistaken for an FM antenna. If you have located one of these types of antennas on your vehicle you can be certain that it’s not the FM antenna. Continue your search to find the actual FM antenna. Figure 32 [ Installation ] 55 2. Greater confusion may arise with whip type antennas. Figure 33 shows some whip type antennas which can be found on the front or rear of a vehicle’s roof, or on the rear windshield. Some of these antennas could be the FM antenna and some are not the FM antenna. Figure 33 3. Antennas with a short 2-4 inch stubby whip or protrusion are not FM antennas, while antennas with a whip length of 7 inches or longer are likely to be the FM antenna. If your vehicle has a short stubby antenna, you should continue searching your vehicle’s FM antenna. If after searching your vehicle you’re still uncertain as to where its FM antenna is located then SIRIUS recommends professional installation of the FM Extender Antenna. Ask your SIRIUS retailer if they provide professional installation services, or can recommend a professional installer. If you don’t correctly identify your vehicle’s FM antenna, the installation of the FEA will result in poor performance and unsatisfactory results. 56 [ Installation ] Subscribing to the SIRIUS Service Before you can listen to the SIRIUS service, you need to subscribe to the SIRIUS Satellite Radio service. To subscribe, do the following: 1. Be sure that your SIRIUS InV2 is correctly installed, is properly docked in the Vehicle Dock, and that the antenna is oriented to receive the SIRIUS signal. 2. Turn on the InV2. After the startup sequence, it will update the SIRIUS channel a. line-up (see Figure 34a). Wait until the channel updates have completed before pressing any buttons. b. 3. Once the channels have been updated, the radio will automatically tune to channel 184 and the display will change to Call 1-888-539-SIRIUS to Subscribe c. (see Figure 34b). You will not be able to listen to any other channels until you activate your SIRIUS subscription. 4. Use the Channel UP/DOWN buttons to d. tune to channel 0 to display your InV2’s unique 12-digit SIRIUS ID Number (SID). See Figure 34c.
