Protect Your Ears and Yourself
• Always follow traffic safety directions. Do not use earbuds or
headphones while operating a bicycle, automobile, or motorcycle. Not
only is it dangerous, it may be illegal.
• Make sure the earbud or headphone cable does not get in the way
of your arms or other surrounding objects while you’re walking or
exercising.
• Maintain a moderate volume when walking or exercising. Always be
aware of what is happening around you.
• Using earbuds or headphones for a long time and/or at high volume
can cause serious damage to your hearing. If you hear ringing in your
ears, STOP listening immediately.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time, your hearing “comfort level” adapts to
higher and higher volumes. What sounds “normal” may be dangerously loud.
TO ESTABLISH A SAFE LEVEL: Start the volume control at a low setting.
Slowly increase the volume until you can hear comfortably, without
distortion, and still be aware of your surroundings.
ONCE YOU ESTABLISH A COMFORTABLE SOUND LEVEL: Leave the
volume at that level; do not increase it over time. SIRIUS | XM and the
Consumer Electronics Association recommend that you avoid prolonged
exposure to excessive noise. Sustained sound levels above 85 decibels can
be dangerous without hearing protection. (For reference, a garbage disposal
or loud shouting at 3 feet are about 80 decibels; a food blender or gas lawn
blower at 3 feet are around 90 decibels.) SIRIUS | XM disclaims all liability
for hearing loss, bodily injury, or property damage as a result of use or
misuse of this product.

Home Installation
20
There are two parts to installing your Home Dock. First, connecting the Home
Dock to the AC Power Adapter, the Indoor Outdoor Antenna, and to your stereo or
powered speakers, and second, placing and aiming the Indoor/Outdoor Antenna.
If you plan to use the XM2go Music Manager software, you should locate the Home
Dock near your PC computer.
Step 1: Connect the Home Dock
When installing the Home Dock in your home, choose a location in close proximity
to your home stereo system or powered speakers, and also where the cable from
the Indoor/Outdoor Antenna can reach the Home Dock. The location should be
easily accessible and provide good visibility of the display, but should not be
located where it will be in direct sunlight, which will affect the visibility of the
display screen.
You will also need to decide whether you will be connecting your Home Dock to
your home stereo system using the provided Stereo Audio Cable, or directly to
powered speakers.
Connect the Indoor/Outdoor Antenna
Once you have selected a location,
connect the antenna to the silver
ANT connector at the right side of the
Home Dock. (After completing a few
additional steps, we will work on the
location of the antenna.)
Home Dock Installation

Connect the Home Power Adapter
Connect the Home Power Adapter to the red POWER connector at the left
side of the Home Dock, and plug it into a wall outlet.
Connect the Home Dock to a Home Stereo System or Powered
Speakers
The Home Dock can be connected to your home stereo system, or to a pair
of powered speakers. If you are connecting to a home stereo system, see the
following section. If you are connecting to a pair of powered speakers, refer
to “To Connect the Home Dock to Your Powered Speakers” on page 23.
To Connect the Home Dock to Your Home Stereo System
The Home Dock can be connected to your home stereo system through the

Home Dock Installation
Step 2: Install the Indoor/Outdoor Antenna
Proper installation of the Indoor/Outdoor Antenna is necessary to insure good
and consistent signal reception. To begin, try experimenting with the antenna to
get a feel for the reception in your location. Move
the antenna around the room or from room to room.
Aim it from different windows. In major metropolitan
areas, you might find that you get great reception in
several locations without worrying too much about
aim and placement.
Access the Antenna Aiming screen of your XMp3i to
see a visual indication of signal strength. Press
menu Settings Antenna Aiming. If you’re
receiving a good Satellite and Terrestrial signal
strength, you’re done. If not, try some of the
suggestions which follow.
Other Indoor/Outdoor Antenna
Installation Suggestions
If you find you are getting a
signal, but it’s inconsistent,
try moving the Indoor/Outdoor
Antenna closer to a window,
ideally one that is facing due
south.
Not sure which way is south? Think
S
25
about where the sun rises (in the east) and sets (in the west). Then stand so that
east is to your left and you’ll be facing south. Is there a window in the direction
you’re facing? Move the antenna closer to the window.
TIP! Still not sure which way is south or where to place your Indoor/Outdoor
Antenna? Look up your location on an online mapping website that offers
satellite views of street addresses where you can easily see which way is
south, and what window may offer an unobstructed view of the sky.
Another easy method is to start at any window, then work from window to
window in a simple pattern to find the window gives the best signal strength.
Note that the antenna must also have an unobstructed view, with no trees
or buildings blocking its aim. If the antenna is aimed through a window, be
aware that blinds, screens, or any other non-glass elements such as thermal
insulation can sometimes cause reception issues. If this is the case, you may
want to use another window or place the antenna outside of the window.
If you find a window that gives you good
signal strength, you can place the antenna
on the windowsill. The antenna may need
to be placed on something to raise it above
the level of the window frame.
If you don’t have a window where you
receive a consistent signal, or placing
the antenna in a window is not a practical
solution for you, BETTER reception can be
achieved by placing the antenna outside
on a window ledge, porch, table, or patio.
The location you choose should provide
SOUTH
26
the antenna with a clear view of the southern sky.
If none of the previous solutions work
for you, then the BEST reception can
be achieved by mounting the antenna
outdoors, with a clear view of the
southern sky.
Note that you will want to consider any
potential hazards when you choose
the mounting location, and possibly
consider professional installation.
SIRIUS XM Radio Inc. is not liable for
any damages.
To mount the antenna, you will need
four screws (not included) with a
1/4” head (e.g., an M3 screw),
and that are suitable for
the material onto which you
are affixing the antenna,
(e.g., wood, metal, etc.). The
screws should be spaced
1-3/8” apart horizontally and
1-1/8” vertically. Refer to the
template “Indoor/Outdoor
Antenna Template” on page 126.

Once you have found a suitable location
for the antenna, route the antenna cable
to the Home Dock. Be sure you avoid any
obstructions that could crimp, kink, or
twist the cable. Use protective grommets
wherever rough openings are encountered.
If the antenna is installed outdoors, route
the cable from the antenna location to the
interior of the home, working the cable
through the basement, under a window
sill, etc., and make adjustments to take up
cable slack as necessary.
TIP! If your Indoor/Outdoor Antenna’s cable isn’t long enough, visit xmradio.
com/accessories, or your favorite retailer, and consider a 50 ft. Indoor/
Outdoor Antenna Extension Cable or a Wireless Home Signal Repeater.
If the signal is good for either Satellite or Terrestrial (or both), and you are
hearing the audio from the Radio, the installation is complete.
If the signal reception is low, or intermittent, try another location for the
antenna. Verify that the antenna is pointed south, and that the antenna’s view
of the sky is not blocked by a tree, a building, a bridge, or anything else. Adjust
until you are receiving a good signal.
The Indoor/Outdoor Antenna’s reception can also be tweaked by opening or
closing the antenna clamshell, and turning the antenna. While observing the
signal strength, make small adjustments to the angle of tilt of the clamshell
until the highest possible signal strength is achieved. If you have not wall-
1-3/8 in
1-1/8 in
28
Home Dock Installation
mounted the antenna, turn the antenna slightly to the right or left and observe
if the signal strength increases. For each tweak, allow a few seconds in each
position to determine if the signal strength increases.
If the signal reception is good, but there is no audio, verify your audio connection.
• If you are connected to a home stereo system, be sure the system is set to
the auxiliary input source, and you have connected the Stereo Audio Cable
to the auxiliary input connectors.
• If you are connected to powered speakers, be sure the speakers are
plugged into an outlet, and are turned On.
The Line Out level of your Radio can also be increased. Refer to “Line Out Level”
on page 93.
