Warning and Safety Information

IC Caution

Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.

To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) is not more than that required for successful communication. This device has been designed to operate with an antenna having a maximum gain of 2 dBi. Antenna having a higher gain is strictly prohibited per regulations of Industry Canada. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms.

To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that permitted for successful communication.

Stil etto Ve hicle Kit (Model SLV 1C)

In order to use your Stiletto in a vehicle, you will need the Stiletto Vehicle Kit. The kit includes a compact vehicle dock that rapidly charges your Stiletto’s battery, connects to an externally mounted antenna for more reliable reception, and plays audio through your vehicle’s stereo system. Ten dedicated preset buttons (30 presets total) and an included remote control make it easy to tune and operate your Stiletto without taking your eyes from the road.

Stil etto Ho me Kit (Model SLH1C)

The Stiletto Home Kit provides everything you need to use the Stiletto in your home or office. The sleek home dock provides a convenient way to charge your Stiletto’s battery along with an extra slot for charging a spare battery. The included indoor/outdoor antenna provides improved reception, while audio cables enable you to connect the Stiletto to amplified speakers or a home entertainment system. A remote control is included, along with USB cable and PC computer software for optionally connecting the home dock to your PC computer.

[ Package Contents ]

Battery Life, Installation, and Charging

Two batteries are supplied with your Stiletto 10, a slim battery and a standard battery. The batteries when fully charged will provide a range of listening times depending on the listening mode. The following table provides the approximate listening times:

List ening

Mode

Satellite Radio 4 hours 2 hours

Library 20 hours 10 hours

Radio Replays 20 hours 10 hours

As batteries age, the amount of listening time diminishes. Replacement (or spare) batteries are available from your SIRIUS product distributor.

The amount of listening time the battery provides is dependent upon several settings: 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 Settings menu. Refer to Brightness and Backlig ht Time r on page 55 for details about these settings.

Adjust your antenna position to maximize signal strength.

TERRESTRIAL

Figur e 6Figur e 6

Receiving the SIRIUS Satellite Signal

The SIRIUS satellite signal is broadcast from satellites covering almost all of North America. To receive the satellite signal your Stiletto must have a clear view of the sky. Obstructions such as buildings, trees, bridges and high voltage power lines can easily interfere with the satellite signal. For that reason SIRIUS also broadcasts its signal from terrestrial radio towers in most major cities.

To activate or use your Stiletto 10 in portable mode, first be sure you have a strong satellite or terrestrial signal. You may view the signal strength in your location by navigating to Settings Device Antenna Aiming. (Figure 6) At least one of the signals should be greater than 50% to reliably activate and use the Stiletto 10.

Signal reception can be greatly improved by installing the Stiletto 10 in the vehicle dock, or by attaching the antenna headset (included). For best performance it is recommended that you use your Stiletto 10 with one of these accessories when activating your subscription.

Figures 8 and 9 illustrate several unacceptable situations where obstacles are blocking the Stiletto 10 from having a clear view of the sky, preventing reception of the signal from the SIRIUS satellites.

Subscribing to the SIRIUS Service

Before you can listen to the SIRIUS service, you need to activate your subscription. To subscribe, do the following:

Be sure that the Stiletto 10 is correctly installed, is in the vehicle dock, and that the

antenna is oriented to receive the SIRIUS signal. Turn on the Stiletto 10. After the startup sequence, Select Satellite Radio All Chan-

nels and tune to channel 184. The SIRIUS channel line-up will begin updating. Wait until the channel updates have completed before pressing any buttons. Once the channels have been updated, the display will change to Call 1-888-539-

SIRIUS to Subscribe. You will not be able to listen to other channels until you activate your SIRIUS subscription. Use the Media Dial to tune to channel 0 to display the Stiletto 10’s unique 12-digit

SIRIUS ID Number (SID). (Figure 7) You can also tune to channel 0 by using the remote control: Press the button. The SID number is also available on the Stiletto 10’s packaging, and may also be accessed by selecting Settings Device Sirius ID. Write the SID number down in the space provided near the end of this guide. Have your credit card handy and contact SIRIUS on the Internet at:

https://www.siri uscanada.ca/activate/ and follow the prompts to activate your subscription. You can also call SIRIUS toll-free at: 1-888-539-SIRIUS (1-888-539-7474). When you have successfully subscribed to the SIRIUS service, and the Stiletto 10 has

been updated with your subscription information, an alert will be displayed. To continue,

press the Select button. You are now ready to begin enjoying SIRIUS Satellite Radio’s digital entertainment, and can tune to other channels!
