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 .) 20 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 21 Home Dock Installation AUX In or LINE In connection of your home stereo system, using the provided Stereo Audio Cable . 1 Take the provided Stereo Audio Cable and connect the single 1/8 (3 .5 mm) connector to the green AUDIO connector at the rear of the Home Dock . 2 Connect the white left and red right Stereo Audio Cable connectors
(L and R are also on each respective tip) to any available input other than PHONO on your home stereo system . (If your stereos inputs are marked red and black, simply connect the white plug to the black input .) R L 3 Turn the home stereo system On, and make sure you select the correct input on your stereo system for the AUX In or LINE In connection, or whatever input you have selected . 22 To Connect the Home Dock to Your Powered Speakers The Home Dock can be connected directly to a pair of speakers . The speakers will need to be powered for amplification . 1 Connect the 1/8 (3 .5 mm) connector from the powered speakers to the green AUDIO connector at the rear of the Home Dock . 2 Plug the AC Power Adapter for the speakers into an AC outlet . 3 Turn the speakers On . Dock Your XMp3i Place the XMp3i into the Home Dock as shown, and turn it On by sliding the Power/Lock switch down . IMPORTANT! Allow the XMp3i to charge the battery for a minimum of three hours before removing from the Home Dock . 23 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 Antenna Aiming . If youre menu receiving a good Satellite and Terrestrial signal strength, youre done . If not, try some of the suggestions which follow . Settings Other Indoor/Outdoor Antenna Installation Suggestions If you find you are getting a signal, but its 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 24 about where the sun rises (in the east) and sets (in the west) . Then stand so that east is to your left and youll be facing south . Is there a window in the direction youre 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 dont 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 25 Home Dock Installation 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 . SOUTH 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 . 26 SOFFIT OUTDOORS SOUTH 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 . 1-3/8 in 1-1/8 in TIP! If your Indoor/Outdoor Antennas cable isnt 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 antennas 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 Antennas 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-
27 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 . SOUTH 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 . 28 A c t i v a t i o n 29 Activation Before you can enjoy Commercial-Free Music, plus Sports, News, Talk &
Entertainment, you need to activate your XMp3i . 1 Make sure your XMp3i is properly installed, turned on, and receiving the XM signal so that you can hear the audio on channel 1 . 2 Make a note of your XM Radio ID .

i H o w T o F n d A v a i l a b l e F M C h a n n e l s 47 Appendix: How To Find Available FM Channels How To Find Available FM Channels In Your Area An available FM channel is one that is not being used by an FM radio station in your area . When you tune your FM radio to an available channel, you should only hear static or silence not talk or music . Once you have found an available channel, you need to tune your Satellite Radios built-in transmitter to the same channel to receive XM sound through your vehicles radio . We recommend one of the following methods to find an available FM channel:
1 Use the SIRIUS | XM FM Channel Finder Use the SIRIUS | XM FM Channel Finder at www .xmradio .com/
fmchannel . Go to the website and enter your zip code . The Channel Finder will suggest a list of available FM channels in your area . For convenience, write down or print out the list . Now, tune your Satellite Radio to a favorite XM channel (or to channel 1, if its not yet activated) . Turn on your vehicles FM radio . Pick the first FM channel on your Channel Finder list and tune the FM radio to that channel . If you do not hear a local FM station broadcast, then tune your Satellite Radio to the same FM channel . (Consult your Satellite Radios User Guide if you are unsure how to tune it to the same FM channel .) You should hear the XM channel through your vehicles radio . If you are satisfied with the sound quality, youre done! If this FM channel doesnt work well for you, work down the Channel Finder list until you find an FM channel that allows you to hear XM clearly . 48 OR 2 Manually tune through your local FM channels Manually tune through your local FM channels on your vehicles FM radio . Turn on your vehicles FM radio . Start at 88 .1 and use the Manual tune function on your vehicles FM radio to tune through each FM channel one-by-one (88 .1 followed by 88 .3 etc .) to locate channels that arent being used by a local FM radio station . Write down each FM channel that has only static or silence on it, until you reach 107 .9 . Once you have created your list of available FM channels, you will need to find the one that provides the best match for your Satellite Radio . Now, tune your Satellite Radio to a favorite XM channel (or to channel 1, if its not yet activated) . Pick the first FM channel on your list and tune the FM radio to that channel . Then tune your Satellite Radio to the same FM channel . (Consult your Satellite Radios User Guide if you are unsure how to tune it to the same FM channel .) You should hear the XM channel through your vehicles radio . If you are satisfied with the sound quality, youre done! If this FM channel doesnt work well for you, work down your list until you find an FM channel that allows you to hear XM clearly . NOTE! You may find an FM channel with static or silence that does not work with your Satellite Radio . It is possible that some type of inaudible interference is present that prevents reception of the broadcast . Your only options are to use another FM channel or a different audio connection method . 49 Appendix: How To Find Available FM Channels TIP! If you regularly drive from one location to another, such as your daily commute, you may need to use different FM channels along your route for best performance . If this is the case, we recommend saving the best FM channels as presets on your FM radio and on your Satellite Radio . Then you simply select and match the best channel for the area you are in . TIP! It will be much more difficult to find available FM channels in large cities than in most suburban or rural locations . A direct audio connection using the Aux In Cable, Cassette Adapter, or professional installation is your best solution if you drive in or near large metropolitan areas . NOTE! The SIRIUS | XM FM Channel Finder relies on data from the Federal Communications Commission . The data may not reflect the latest stations in your area . In addition, local geography and weather conditions can impact reception, so your results may be different from the list . NOTE! The performance of FM radios are different, based on manufacturer and vehicle style . Some may not work well with the type of FM transmitter used by your Satellite Radio . This is why we recommend a direct audio connection using the Aux In Cable or Cassette Adapter if they can be used in your vehicle . Professional installation can also resolve almost any performance issue . 50 T r o u b l e s h o o t i n g 51 Troubleshooting Your Vehicle Kit has been designed and built to be trouble-free, but if you experience a problem, try this:
Check that all connections are firm and secure . Make sure the vehicle power socket is clean and free of corrosion . Make sure you have connected the radio as described in this installation guide . Verify that the PowerConnect Power Adapter is plugged into the vehicles cigarette lighter or power adapter socket and that the LED on the PowerConnect Power Adapter is lit (on) . If not, your vehicle may need to be running to provide power to the socket . If you see this on the screen: Try this:
Acquiring Signal Make sure that the vehicle is outdoors with a clear view of the sky . Make sure the Magnetic Mount Antenna is mounted outside of the vehicle . Move your antenna away from any obstructed area . For example, if you are parked in an underground garage, you should receive a signal after leaving the garage . Make sure that the Magnetic Mount Antenna cable is firmly and securely plugged into the PowerConnect Vehicle Dock . Make sure the cable is not bent or broken . Turn the radio off, then on, to reset this message . If the message persists, most likely the antenna cable has been damaged . Replace the antenna . Check Antenna Connection 52 If you see this on the screen:
