Safety Precautions

Warning

Take the following precautions to prevent traffic
accidents and avoid personal injury:

• Installation must be performed according to
this installation guide. SIRIUS is not
responsible for issues arising from
installations not performed according to the
procedures in this guide.

• Do not install the Receiver where it may
obstruct your view through the windshield or
your vehicle’s indicator displays.

• Do not install the Receiver where it may
hinder the function of safety devices such as
an airbag. Doing so may prevent the airbag
from functioning properly in the event of an
accident.

• The installation and use suggestions
contained in this manual are subject to any
restrictions or limitations that may be imposed
by applicable law. The purchaser should check
applicable law for any restrictions or
limitations before installing and/or operating

this Receiver.

• Failure to follow these safety precautions
may result in a serious accident.

Caution

Take the following precautions to keep the
Receiver in proper working order:

• Be sure the Receiver is connected to a 12V
DC power source with a negative ground
connection.

• Do not install the Receiver where it will be
exposed to high levels of humidity, moisture,
or dust.

• When replacing the fuse, use only a new fuse
with the proper rating. Using a fuse with the
wrong rating could potentially cause damage
to the Receiver in the event of a short circuit.

Installing the STV2 Custom Vehicle
Installation Kit

This kit may not fit exactly in all vehicle
environments. SIRIUS recommends that you
consult an installation professional.

There are two choices for mounting the Receiver:

• Suction cup mount

• In-dashboard mount

The instructions for mounting the suction cup
mount are found in the ST2 Starmate Replay user
guide. The instructions for mounting the suction cup
and antenna can be found in the Starmate Replay
user’s guide.

Mounting the Receiver: In-Dashboard Mount

The in-dash mount may be used in vehicles which
provide an opening in the dashboard for this
purpose. Place the in-dash mount in the
dashboard opening and snap it into place by gently
pushing it into the opening on the four corners.

Before placing the Receiver into the in-dash mount,
the wiring to the Receiver should be installed. Refer
to the wiring diagram in the SDVK1 Plug-n-Play

4

Direct Connect Kit installation instructions before
proceeding with the remainder of the Receiver
installation. The wiring should be routed so that the
wires meet the Receiver at the left side for easy
attachment.

When the wiring has been connected to the
Receiver, it may be positioned into the in-dash
mount. Line the Receiver up with the in-dash mount
and slide the left side into the in-dash mount,
making sure the wires push behind the in-dash

mount at the left side. Next, push the Receiver
completely into the in-dash mount by gently pushing
the right side until it is nestled completely into the in­dash mount.

Depending on the vehicle dashboard type, hot glue
may be necessary for keeping the in-dash mount in
place.
