Installation
Installation of your SV1 SIRIUS One is easy:
1. Choose a location in your vehicle where you
will mount the Receiver, either on the visor,
the dash, or the windshield.
2. Mount the Receiver on the visor using the
visor/dash mount, or on the dash using the
visor/dash mount and the velcro strips, or on
the windshield using the suction cup mount.
3. Install the magnetic antenna on the roof of the
vehicle, and route the antenna cable to the
Receiver.
4. Connect the power cord for the Receiver to your
vehicle’s cigarette lighter.
5. Subscribe to the SIRIUS service and begin
enjoying the SIRIUS entertainment!
Location
Choose a location in your vehicle where the
Receiver will not block your vision, interfere with the
vehicle controls, or obstruct the air bag. If you are
using the suction cup mount, the location should be
suitable for using the suction cup mount, such as
the windshield or other flat, smooth surface.
SV1 Receiver User and Installation Guide
The location should be easily reachable and provide
good visibility of the Receiver.
Mounting the Receiver
Attach the desired mounting device, suction cup
mount or visor/dash mount, to the Receiver by
sliding the flat portion of the mount into the slot on
the back top edge of the Receiver. Gently slide the
mounting device in until it snaps into place.

Depending upon your mounting choice, clip the
Receiver to the visor, or, use the velcro strips to
mount the Receiver to the dash, or, if you are using
the suction cup mount, lightly moisten the surface of
the suction cups which face the windshield (or other
surface) and press the suction cups to the mounting
surface.
Installing the Magnetic Antenna
The optimum mounting location for the 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.
The following illustrations show the recommended
mounting locations of the antenna for several types
of vehicles. Follow these recommendations for best
performance from the antenna.
Sedan/Coupe: Mount the antenna along the rear
centerline of the vehicle roof, located at the rear of
the roof near the rear window.
SUV/Mini-Van: Mount the antenna along the rear
centerline of the vehicle roof, located at the rear of
the roof near the rear door/hatch.
Pickup Truck: Mount the antenna along the rear
centerline of the cab roof, located at the rear of the
roof near the rear window.

SV1 Receiver User and Installation Guide
Convertible: Mount the antenna along the centerline
of the trunk lid, with the rubber antenna cable cover/
tail directed toward the rear window.
Clean the area where the antenna and rubber
antenna cable cover/tail will be mounted with the
supplied alcohol swab.
Connect the rubber antenna cable cover/tail to the
antenna cable, making sure that the strain-relief on
the antenna seats into the rubber antenna cable
cover/tail groove. Route the antenna cable through
the wire channel in the rubber antenna cable cover/
tail. Do not yet attach the adhesive strip.
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.
SV1 Receiver User and Installation Guide
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 & 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 excess antenna cable in a location
where it can be hidden.
Once the antenna cable is routed through the
vehicle, and you are satisfied with the cable routing,

peel the yellow protective material from the
