DETAILS Sirius-S50 PERSONAL SATELLITE RADIO + CAR KIT Congratulations on the purchase of your new Sirius S50 The Sirius S50® allows you to capture and store up to 50 hours of SIRIUS Satellite Radio content, or a mix of SIRIUS® programming and MP3/WMA files, for portable entertainment. When attached to a home dock, vehicle dock, or executive docking station, the Sirius S50 provides easy access to live broadcasts and saved content, and captures and stores both scheduled and unscheduled SIRIUS programming. This feature allows you to listen to the unique programming provided by SIRIUS which you have saved, in locations where you would ordinarily be unable to receive adequate satellite reception. When the Sirius S50 is docked and powered on, it gathers content in a variety of ways for listening on the go including My SIRIUS Channels, My Sirius Songs, scheduled recordings, and My Playlists. The My Sirius Studio PC software which is included allows you to supplement the SIRIUS broadcast content with your own MP3/WMA library when attached to a PC through a USB connection. The PC application also allows for channel and image updates automatically when connected to the SIRIUS website. The vehicle and home dock utilize a rotary Media Dial for quick and easy navigation. You can turn the Media Dial to find your favorite SIRIUS channel, tilt the Media Dial to pause, rewind, fast-forward, or save a favorite song or show. Voice-assisted navigation informs you what channel you've selected, eliminating the need for you to take their eyes off the road while driving. The Sirius S50 also includes many other features, such as 30 channel presets; a jump button for one-touch tuning to traffic and weather reports or to a favorite SIRIUS channel; a sports ticker that flashes personalized sports scores; and a game alert feature which prompts you when your favorite NFL®, NHL®, NBA®, or other sports teams are playing on SIRIUS.

Professional installation provides an experienced technician to install this product in your vehicle, advice for selecting a suitable mounting location, installation of the antenna, and routing all the necessary wires and cables. If the FM reception within your vehicle proves to be poor, an installer will have the necessary accessories to install an optional FM relay switch, or an audio cable to connect the audio output of the Sirius S50 directly to your vehicle's audio system. Ask your SIRIUS retailer if they provide professional installation services, or can recommend a professional installation service. A. Installing the Car Dock When installing the dock in your vehicle, choose a location in your vehicle where the unit 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. The mounting accessories necessary to install the dock in a vehicle are provided. Figures 1 & 2 show several examples of the Sirius S50 mounted in a vehicle: a is the console front mount method using the adhesive mount, b is the console side mount method using the adhesive mount, and C is the vent mount method using the vent mount clip. B. figure 1 C. figure 2 Depending upon the mounting location you select in your vehicle, console front mount, console side mount, or vent mount, the mount should be assembled as described in the following three sections. Each type of mount method should only be installed as depicted, i.e., the console side mount method should only be used when installing to the side of the console, etc. [ Getting Started ] [ Getting Started ] Console front mount method (a) To mount the car dock using the console front mount method, assemble the mount as follows, as shown in Figure 3: 1. Attach the adhesive foot to the mounting bracket, placing a collar in the bracket before screwing the foot to the arm. The side of the collar with the hole should face the foot. 2.

Clip Arms figure 6 0 [ Getting Started ] [ Getting Started ] 1 Installing the Antenna The optimum mounting location for the magnetic antenna is on the roof of the vehicle, with a minimum unobstructed area of 12 inches by 12 inches, and exactly 6½ inches from the rear roof edge of the vehicle (the length of the rubber antenna cable cover/tail). It is important to avoid any obstructions that will block the SIRIUS signal, obstructions such as a roof rack, a sunroof, roof mounted cargo containers, or other antennas. For convertible vehicles, the antenna should be installed on the trunk lid. For best performance, it is recommended that the antenna be installed with the rubber antenna cable cover/tail. This rubber antenna cable cover/tail provides two benefits: first, it positions the antenna the recommended distance from the rear window, rear door/hatch, or trunk edge to give the antenna the best view of the sky. Secondly, it conceals and protects the exposed antenna cable. The rubber antenna cable cover/tail has adhesive strips that hold it securely in place. The following illustrations show the recommended mounting locations of the antenna for several types of vehicles. (Figure 1) Follow these recommendations for best performance from the antenna. Convertible. Mount the antenna along the center-line of the trunk lid, with the rubber antenna cable cover/tail directed toward the rear window. When you have selected a suitable mounting location, clean the area where the antenna and rubber antenna cable cover/tail will be mounted with the supplied alcohol swab. Protective Strips Strain Relief Adhesive Rubber Antenna Cover/Tail Cable figure 2 figure 3 Connect the rubber antenna cable cover/tail to the antenna cable, making sure that the strainrelief on the antenna sits into the rubber antenna cable cover/tail groove. (Figure 2) Route the antenna cable through the wire channel in the rubber antenna cable cover/tail. Do not remove the protective strips yet. figure 1 Temporarily position the antenna and rubber antenna cable cover/tail in the selected mounting area and route the cable from the antenna to the vehicle's interior by tucking it underneath the rubber molding around rear window, as shown in Figure 3. Route the cable from the lowest point of the rear window into the trunk. Take advantage of any existing cable channels or wiring conduits. For SUVs, mini-vans and 5-door vehicles, bring the cable into the vehicle under the rubber molding for the tailgate, and continue under the interior trim. From the trunk, or rear of the vehicle, route the cable around the passenger compartment and to the front of the vehicle, to the receiver. 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 any Sedan/Coupe. Mount the antenna along the rear center-line of the vehicle roof, located at the rear of the roof near the rear window. Pickup Truck. Mount the antenna along the rear center-line of the cab roof, located at the rear of the roof near the rear window. SUV/Mini-Van. Mount the antenna along the rear center-line of the vehicle roof, located at the rear of the roof near the rear door/hatch.

Battery Installation, Charging, and Disposal The SIRIUS S50 is provided with a battery which, when fully charged, will provide approximately 6 hours of listening time when listening to SIRIUS content, and will vary when listening to your audio files depending upon the encoding technique of the audio files. As batteries age, the amount of listening time diminishes and replacement (or spare) batteries are available from your SIRIUS product distributor. The amount of listening time the battery provides is also dependent upon several factors which may be adjusted to maximize the time between charging. Decreasing the length of time the backlight of the display screen remains on will prolong battery life, as well as adjusting the brightness of the display screen to a dimmer setting. Both of these adjustments are made through the Setup menu. Refer to the Brightness section on page 85 and the Backlight section on page 86 for instructions on changing these settings. figure 4 media Player battery installation Once the antenna cable is routed through the vehicle, and you are satisfied with the cable routing, peel the protective material from the adhesive strips and press the rubber antenna cable cover/tail firmly into place on the vehicle. Double check that the location of the antenna and rubber antenna cable cover/tail are correct, and continue to press firmly down on rubber antenna cable cover/tail for another 30 seconds. (Figure 4) At room temperature (68 degrees), maximum adhesion usually occurs within 72 hours. During this period, avoid car washes and other contact with the antenna and rubber antenna cable cover/tail. To install the battery in the media player, grasp the media player in your hand as shown in Figure 1, positioning your thumb just above the head of the SIRIUS dog logo. Then press your thumb down gently on the battery cover and slide your thumb to the right to open the battery compartment. Lift and remove the cover, and remove the battery from the compartment. Discard the plastic protective material from underneath the battery, and place the battery back into the compartment. Slide the battery cover back into place. The battery provided with the Sirius S50 is fully charged at the factory, but may require additional charging time to top off the charge. Protective Material Connecting the Cigarette Lighter Adapter Connect the provided cigarette lighter adapter to the DC 5V connection at the rear of the vehicle dock. (Refer to Figure 1 on page 14 for the location of this connector.) Do not use any other power adapter for the Sirius S50, or connect it directly to the vehicle's power.

So go ahead, take the Sirius S50 out for drive. Listening Environments The Sirius S50 functions in two distinct listening environments, Live and Playback. Live figure 1 In the Live environment, the Sirius S50 plays the SIRIUS channels, as they are being broadcast. To use the Live mode, the Sirius S50 must be in a dock which is connected to the antenna. The live environment allows you to browse and select the SIRIUS channels, and find information about the songs, artists, sports, news, weather, traffic, or other entertainment being broadcast. You can also save songs and shows for later playback. While in the live environment, the broadcast to which you are listening is put into a replay buffer temporarily, up to the most recent 30-60 minutes (depending upon the content of the broadcast). At any time you may rewind to repeat something you just heard or you may press Play/Pause to pause the live broadcast. You may resume listening to the broadcast at any time, beginning from the point where the broadcast was paused, or you can fast-forward or rewind through the replay buffer, pause the replay buffer again, or return to the live broadcast. The replay buffer is retained until the memory becomes full. When memory becomes full, the [ Getting Started ] [ Operation ] oldest part of the replay buffer is deleted to make room for the new material so that the live broadcast can continue to be added to the replay buffer. The replay buffer is discarded when either the Sirius S50 is turned off or tuned to another channel or a playlist.
