Let's Get Started
First, some important reminders:
We know you're eager to turn on your new Sportscaster and listen to XM, but please
take a moment to read through this instruction manual.
Warning: This manual contains important safety and operating information.
Please read, understand, and follow the instructions in this manual. Failure to do so
could result in personal injury, death, and/or damage to your Sportscaster,
accessories, and/or to your vehicle or property.
Caution: Use your Sportscaster only with the enclosed components or approved
accessories. Do not modify wires or other connectors in any way; you could cause a
malfunction, which could damage your Sportscaster and will void your warranty.
Caution: Refrain from using food or drinks near your Sportscaster. Spilling food

Installation
Important battery information-please read
Your Sportscaster's accessory battery pack should be charged before you use the
accessory with the receiver. The amount of charge is indicated by the battery level
indicator on your Sportscaster's display. When you're charging the battery, you will
see . When the battery is exhausted, you will see .
When you use your Sportscaster for the first time, charge the battery until the
battery level indicator indicates it's fully charged. Then, use your Sportscaster until
the battery is completely discharged. This charge/discharge cycle will reset the
battery level indicator so that it will more accurately report the level of the battery
with future usage.
Your battery performs best when used and charged in an ambient temperature of
between 50°F to 90°F (10°C to 32°C). Batteries gradually lose their ability to retain the
same capacity as when they are new and require longer charging times. When a
battery no longer holds its charge, you should replace the battery. Always use
authorized batteries and power adaptors. Replacement batteries and power
adaptors can be ordered online at www.advancedgt.com.
To prevent injuring yourself or damaging your Sportscaster, do not disassemble,
crush, or puncture the battery. Do not leave your Sportscaster inside a hot vehicle or
in direct sunlight for extended periods of time. Never allow metal to touch the
battery terminals. Your Sportscaster's rechargeable battery should be disposed of
properly and may need to be recycled. Contact your local recycler for details. Never
dispose of batteries in a fire or in water as they may explode.

Troubleshooting
Your Sportscaster should provide you with trouble-free performance without needing
any servicing. If it does not appear to be working properly, first try to remedy the prob-
lem by following these steps:
1. Attach all connections firmly and securely.
2. Ensure the cigarette lighter adapter or auxiliary power socket is clean and free of
corrosion.
3. Check the adapter fuse by unscrewing the ribbed end of the adapter. If required,
replace with a 2-amp fuse only. If your cigarette lighter adapter does not have a
removable end cap, then it is equipped with an internal fuse that resets itself
after it is left unpowered for a period of time.
