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 an antenna location on a metal surface of your vehicle at
least 12" x 12", and at least 6" from a window.
•Best reception is achieved with the antenna mounted on the
roof (trunk for convertibles).
•If the vehicle has a roof rack or skid ribs, it may be
necessary to mount the antenna off-center.
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 cigarette lighter adapter into the cigarette
lighter.
5.Slide SR200 all the way into the cradle so that the connector at
the bottom of the unit makes proper contact in the cradle. Press the POWER button to turn SR200 on.
6.If your SR200 has been properly connected and the antenna is receiving the SIRIUS signal you will hear audio. If
you do not hear audio, the display will read Acquiring Signal. Reorient the antenna until you hear audio. See
Antenna Aiming on page 24 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.
