Within the home, do not install the SB4000 Boombox in a position that obstructs viewing of any home entertainment component, such as television, or stereo system indicators and displays. 2. Take care when using the SB4000 Boombox for prolonged periods in direct sunlight to ensure that surfaces do not get excessively heated, potentially causing deformation. Do not operate in areas subject to extreme temperatures; do not operate the unit in moist areas, in rain, or in areas adjacent to water such as pools, hot tubs, etc. 3. When outdoors, position the SB4000 and antenna where there are no obvious satellite signal obstructions such as high terrain, trees, overhangs, etc. 4. When installed indoors, unplug the AC Power Adapter from the wall outlet when the SB4000 is not to be used for an extended period of time. If batteries are installed, set the Power ON/OFF-VOL control to the Off position to prevent unintentional battery discharge, or remove the batteries. 5. To avoid possible damage to the SB4000 Boombox caused by battery leakage, it is recommended that the batteries be removed when the Boombox is not being used for an extended period of time. 6. Do not install or place the SB4000 on an inclined or unstable surface. 7. By adhering to these warnings and safety considerations, serious accidents and/or personal injury can be avoided. Installation/Wiring Precautions 1. If using the AC Power Adapter, make sure to connect the AC Power Cable to the AC Power Adapter first. Then after making the Antenna connections, make the final connection of the AC Power Cable to a suitable AC outlet. 2. Incorrect installation may cause damage to the system. 3. During antenna placement/installation, refer to page 6 for the Antenna Aiming procedure outlined in this guide Setting Up and Installing Your Portable Boombox NOTE: The SIRIUS® signal can be received and processed virtually anywhere as long as there are no obvious satellite signal obstructions such as high terrain, trees, overhangs, etc. However, signal reception depends mainly on where you are, geographically, and where this place is with respect t the orbital paths of the Sirius satellites. In placing the antenna, therefore, these factors must be taken into account. AC Power Cable SB4000 Boombox User Guide SB4000 Boombox User Guide 1.

A power-on LED is also located on the front panel. 3. AUX Jack: Accepts an audio input signal from an external audio device. When using the AUX audio input, turn the Orbiter SR4000 Off to preserve battery power. Adjust the volume level of the external audio device to obtain an audio output from the SB4000. The volume control on the external audio device should be set to a mid-range level. 4. Power On/Low Battery LED: The LED lights green when the Power On/Off Switch- VOL control is rotated clockwise (CW) to the ON Position. In addition, the LED will light red to alert the user that the batteries are nearly discharged. This condition may cause degraded performance of the SB4000. 5. Power ON/OFF Switch-VOL Control: Applies power to the Boombox when rotated clockwise (CW) from the Off position. When in the ON position, increase or decrease the volume of the audio output signal from the SB4000. To increase the volume level rotate the control CW. To decrease the volume level, rotate the control counterclockwise (CCW). 6. Release Button: Press this button to release and remove the Orbiter SR4000 from the SB4000 Boombox cradle. 2.
