Setting Up and Installing Your Kit  
Installation/Wiring Precautions  
NOTE: The SIRIUS® signal can be received and  
processed virtually anywhere as long as there  
are no obvious satellite signal obstructions such  
as nearby buildings, high terrain, parking  
garages or tunnels.  
1. To prevent a short-circuit, be sure to turn off the  
ignition and remove the negative (-) battery cable  
prior to installation. Connect power wires last.  
1. Cabling Interconnections  
2. Do not install the unit in the locations exposed to  
direct sunlight or, in areas subject to extreme  
temperatures.  
You can begin to enjoy Sirius® Satellite Radio as  
soon as the Shuttle and Vehicle Kit installation  
are complete. Set up your Audiovox Shuttle using  
the following installation instructions, or enlist the  
help of a professional installer:  
3. Incorrect installation may cause damage to the  
system. Mount the unit firmly in place, using  
the supplied hardware.  
2. Installing the Cradle Mount Base Assembly  
4. Be careful not to damage the vehicle wiring.  
a. Interconnect all of the components as shown  
on the adjacent page to verify that the system  
operates normally.  
b. Locate a firm, reasonably flat surface within your  
car to permit optimum viewing and line-of-sight  
access by the supplied remote control unit.  
5. Be sure to use the supplied screws and washers.  
6. Be careful not to snag any wires when tightening  
screws.

CAUTION:  
Do not install the mounting base  
on a leather or fabric surface, or  
in a position that could impair  
your vision, block air bag(s) or  
obstruct vehicle dashboard  
controls and/or radio CD/casette  
operational displays.  
d. The cradle contains a rear mounting plate  
After deciding the mounting configuration,  
loosen and remove two flat-head screws  
securing the plate to the cradle and remove  
the plate. Save the two screws for reassembly.  
NOTE: The adhesive backing on the base  
will not permit easy repositioning once  
it has been mated to the surface; use  
extreme care and planning when  
selecting the mounting location. If the  
base is to be screwed to the surface,  
make sure the area in back of the  
mounting surface is clear of wires or  
other items to prevent unintentional  
damage.

backing to cure completely.  
3. Installing the Cradle Using Double-Sided Tape  
You can mount the cradle directly to your dashboard  
or other flat surface without using the cradle  
mount in the kit. To do this, do not remove the  
mounting plate assembly from the cradle.  
4. Using Other Manufacturer’s Mounts  
The Shuttle Cradle can also be installed using other  
manufacturer’s mounts; the mounting plate  
provisions on the rear or bottom of the cradle provide  
you with multiple mounting options within the  
vehicle using various vehicle-specific aftermarket  
brackets, such as those purchased separately from  
Panavise, Pro-Fit, etc.  
a. Remove the 3/4” x 3” double-sided tape from  
the supplied kit.  
b. Determine the location of the cradle, and clean  
the mounting surface as before.  
c. Peel the backing from one side of the tape, and  
press the tape in place on the rear or bottom  
cradle mounting plate.  
5. Installing the Shuttle into the Cradle  
Install the shuttle as follows:  
a. Carefully line up the shuttle rear spine grooves  
with the cradle guide spines; slide the latch tab  
lever to the unlock ( ) position, and lower the  
shuttle into the cradle.

6. Sirius Program Listening Options  
The Shuttle and Cradle provide an audio output  
signal in three manners:  
Sirius signal received at the ANT cradle  
antenna input can be played through your car  
radio when tuned to one of these fequencies.  
1. When using the SIR-CK3 cradle with the FM  
switching box option, the audio signal can  
be transmitted to a car radio on one of over 100  
selectable FM frequencies using the menu  
options included in your PNP3 shuttle. (Refer  
to the shuttle owner’s manual.) The audio signal  
can then be played through your car radio when  
the car radio is tuned to one of these  
frequencies.  
3. When using the SIR-CK3 cradle without the FM  
switching box option, the audio signal can be  
routed through an optional audio cable (Part  
No. SAT-RCA) and applied to the auxiliary inputs  
of a radio or entertainment system.  
SHUTTLE CRADLE  
(REAR VIEW)  
2. In this instance, use of a hard-wired FM  
transmitter, such as the optional FM  
Switching Box assembly (Part No. SAT-SWB)  
is available and provides a hard-wired FM  
output when connected to the FM OUT  
TO CAR RADIO

connector on the left rear side of the cradle;  
the other end of the switching box plugs into  
the antenna jack of your radio. By using this  
assembly, and selecting the appropriate FM  
output frequency (87.9MHz -107.9MHz) using  
the shuttle FM Transmitter Option menu, the

a. Plug the antenna into the ANT connector  
on the back of the cradle.  
b. Place the antenna at the preferred location on  
the roof or trunk surface. If the vehicle is  
equipped with a roof or trunk rack, the antenna  
may have to be mounted off-center on the  
surface. The magnet will secure the antenna in  
the desired position.

c. Apply power to the Shuttle system as outlined  
in the associated User Guide and obtain an  
audio output. If no audio is heard, first check  
the signal strength indicator located on the  
bottom left corner of the display to ensure the  
antenna is receiving an optimum signal. If  
necessary, move the antenna to different  
positions on the surface until an audio output  
is heard. This is the desired antenna position  
and should be marked with masking tape or by  
another non-scratch method.  
d. After determining the optimum position, turn off  
Shuttle power, disconnect the power  
adapter from the vehicle cigarette lighter  
receptacle and disconnect the antenna cable.

e. Plan the routing of the antenna cable to the  
Shuttle RF input. Make sure you avoid any  
obstructions that could crimp, kink or twist the  
cable; use protective grommets wherever rough  
openings are encountered.  
f. Route the cable from the antenna position to  
the interior of the vehicle, working the cable  
under the rear window molding; make  
adjustments and take up slack whenever  
necessary.  
ANTENNA  
g. At the lowest point of the rear window, route the  
cable into the trunk, taking advantage of existing  
cable conduits. Then snake the cable around  
the passenger compartment to the back of the  
Sirius cradle.  
ROUTING  
THE CABLE  
h. In SUV’s, minivans, etc., route the cable into the  
vehicle under the rubber molding of the hatch  
door or tailgate, and then under the interior trim.  
NOTE: Avoid exposing the cable in the driver  
and passenger areas where it could  
become entangled in feet or other  
objects.

i. Plug the antenna cable into the ANT  
connector on the back of the cradle; then plug  
the cigarette lighter adapter into the lighter  
receptacle. The integral power LED of the  
power button ( ) will light red.  
j. You are now ready to enjoy Sirius programming  
within your vehicle.  
CAUTION: You could drain the vehicle battery if  
the cigarette lighter adapter remains  
plugged in after the ignition is turned  
off. Unplug the adapter to prevent  
this possibility.
