Battery Life, Installation, and Charging
Two batteries are supplied with your Stiletto 100, 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:

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: de-
creasing 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
Backlight
Timer
on page 63 for details about these settings.
Stiletto 100 battery installation and removal
To install the battery, refer to Figure 1 and slide the bottom of the battery (1) into the bottom
of Stiletto 100 (2) until the battery engages the clips. Then press the left side of the battery
down (3) until the release latch (4) locks the battery in place.
To remove the battery from the Stiletto 100, pull the release latch (4). When the battery pops
up, grasp the battery and slide it toward the latch until it disengages from the radio.
