Safety Precautions
Be sure to observe the following warnings. Failure to follow these safety instructions
and warnings may result in a serious accident and/or personal injury.
Install the cables and wiring so that it is not crimped or pinched by screws or
•
sharp metal edges. Route the cables away from moving parts or sharp pointed
edges. This will prevent crimping and damage to the wiring. If the wiring must pass
through a metal hole, be sure to use a rubber grommet to prevent the wire’s insulation from being cut by the metal edge of the hole.
Use caution if you need to disconnect the vehicle’s battery terminal. Please consult
•
the vehicle’s owner’s manual or a service technician prior to removing the battery
positive or ground connection as it may cause damage to the vehicle’s electrical
system or require reprogramming of the vehicle’s computer-controlled devices.
Do not operate any function that takes your attention away from safely driving your
•
vehicle. Any function that requires your prolonged attention should only be performed after coming to a complete stop. Always stop the vehicle in a safe location
before performing these functions. Failure to do so may result in an accident.
Do not open, disassemble or alter the unit in any way. Doing so may result in fire,
•
electric shock or product damage.
Do not insert any objects into the unit. Doing so may result in fire, electric shock or
•
product damage.
Do not install in locations that might hinder vehicle operation. Doing so may ob-
•
struct vision or hamper movement which can result in a serious accident.
Do not install the unit to high levels of humidity, moisture or dust. Doing so can
•
result in electric shock or product failure.

Installation
It is recommended that prior to starting the installation, you read this installation section completely and then follow the instructions. In addition, consult the manual of the
headunit to which you will be connecting the dock to determine any required installation configuration.
Installing the Dock
Sele cting a Moun ting Locati on
The SCVDOC1M SiriusConnect Dock can be mounted most anywhere in the vehicle:
the glove box, the center console, under the dash, under a seat, in the trunk, etc.
When you have selected a possible mounting location, test fit the dock with your
SIRIUS radio in the dock to be sure it will fit in the selected location. If you will be
taking the SIRIUS radio with you when you leave your vehicle, be sure there is enough
clearance to remove the radio from the dock. If you intend to leave the SIRIUS radio
permanently attached to the dock, you can mount the dock in a more inaccessible
location.
When considering a mounting location, avoid the following locations:
Any location where the SIRIUS radio could be exposed to moisture
•
Any location where the SIRIUS radio could be exposed to extreme heat
•
Sele cting the Mo unting Meth od
There are two mounting options available for the dock. The various screws, rubber
feet, and grommet referenced in the mounting methods are identified on page 8.
Meth od 1: Using the rubber feet E and grommet F (pre-installed on the dock) and
securing the dock to the vehicle with the mounting screw B. (Figure 2) The rubber
[ Inst all atio n ]

feet and grommet prevent the dock from sliding when installed on a flat surface.

on the pedestal foot. (Figure 3) You can also attach the pedestal by using two
screws (not supplied) through the optional mounting holes in the pedestal foot.

Atta ching the Ra dio Adapter
When you have mounted the dock, you should attach the radio adapter for your
SIRIUS radio to the dock. (Figure 4) There are three different radio adapters provided
for the SIRIUS radios. One radio adapter is pre-installed on the dock but may need to
be removed and replaced with the adapter for your particular SIRIUS radio. The different radio adapters are identified on page 7 and you should consult the compatibility
chart on page 8 to identify the adapter for your SIRIUS radio.
Attach the radio adapter for your radio using the radio adapter mounting screw D
(shown on page 8). When the radio adapter is properly fitted, the tabs on the rear of
the adapter will align with the corresponding alignment holes on the dock. (Refer to
Figure 1 on page 9 for the location of the alignment holes).
