6. If your SIR-SL1C 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 26 of the SIR-
SL1C Receiver manual to use the ANTENNA SIGNAL
screen to aim the antenna.)
• Make sure the vehicle is not in a 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.
