Important Pre-Installation Notes
• Professional installation of this product is recommended by SIRIUS ® .

• If the installation notes in this manual are not followed, it may result in personal injury or damage to the various
components of the SC-FM1 system, damage to the vehicle’s audio/visual systems, damage to the vehicle’s
electrical systems, or damage to the vehicle’s mechanical systems.
• Familiarize yourself with the existing audio/video system in the vehicle by consulting the owner’s manuals for
these systems before making any wire or cable connections to those systems.
• The SC-FM1 product is designed for 12 volt DC negative ground electrical systems only.
• Disconnect the vehicle’s battery before beginning installation.
• When replacing blown fuses, replace the fuses with fuses of the same type, rating, and amperage.
• Do not cut any of the wires and cables provided with the SC-FM1 system. Excess cable or wire length should
be neatly coiled and secured in a hidden location.
• Do not route wires or cables across sharp edges, or through holes which could result in the wire or cable
becoming damaged, chafed, cut, or shorted. If routing across sharp edges is unavoidable, use wiring
conduit or wrap wires/cables with electrical tape. Use rubber grommets when routing through holes.
Where the wires or cables may contact moving parts, protect the wires/cables by encasing them in wiring
conduit.
• Avoid pinching, squashing, kinking, or crimping any of the SC-FM1 wires or cables, or any of the vehicle’s
existing wires/cables during the installation.
