Aiming the home antenna
Your AirWare can help you aim the home antenna to pull in
the strongest signal available.
1. Using the “
menu
” button and dial, choose
“Antenna Aiming.”
2. Slowly turn and tilt the antenna. The signal bars on
the display will change. Find the position that gives at
least two bars on either “satellite” or “terrestrial.”
3. The antenna aiming screen remains as long as it’s
needed to help you position the antenna. When
you’ve found the best position, press the “
menu
”
button to return to normal operation.
NOTE
: Satellite radio reception depends on the ability of
the antenna to receive/record a signal. The signal may not
be available in buildings or if obstructed (e.g., by mountains,
trees, bridges, etc.).
Using AirWare In Your Vehicle
Because every vehicle is different, we can only provide
some general guidelines. If you need help, consult a
professional installer.
1. Decide which method (cassette adaptor, wireless FM
transmitter, or wired connection) is best for your
vehicle and location.
2. Always do a trial run before installing anything
permanently. Temporarily connect all power, audio,
and antenna lines. Make sure that you receive the
XM signal and that you hear XM programming
through your vehicle’s audio system. You must have
your vehicle antenna plugged in to the docking station
to receive the signal.
TIP
: Your AirWare battery will charge in the vehicle docking
station only while the AirWare power is turned ON. Please
refer to “Other Things You Should Know” (page 37) for addi-
tional information regarding charging the AirWare battery.
