Cautions and Warnings  
1. Within the home, do not install the Receiver Boom Box in a position that obstructs viewing of  
any home entertainment component, such as Television, or stereo system indicators and  
displays.  
2. Do not install or use the JXM900B in locations exposed to direct sunlight, or 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 JXM900B 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 JXM900B 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.

For best reception, the supplied antenna should be  
placed near a window if in the house or, if outdoors, in  
an open area and as high as possible; some  
repositioning may be required to achieve optimum  
results. The following guidelines are recommended:

b. You can also place the antenna outside (on the  
roof structure), provided it is clear of any  
overhead obstructions.  
6. Antenna Placement Considerations  
The antenna should be placed on a relatively flat  
surface whenever possible. When outdoors, the  
antenna may be left in its mount atop the Boom  
Box provided no overhead obstructions are present.

other is a higher resolution signal-strength  
indicator screen showing Terrestrial and  
Satellite indications which allow you to optimally  
aim your XM Antenna. To access and use this  
screen, refer to the JXM900R Satellite Radio  
Receiver User Guide (128-7328).  
b. Leave the antenna in place on the Boom Box,  
or remove the antenna from its mount, uncoil  
the antenna lead, and place it at the preferred  
location inside or outside the home. If the  
JXM900R display says “NO SIGNAL”, the  
7. Positioning the XM Antenna  
The antenna supplied with the JXM900B is a high-  
gain type that can receive XM’s signal from one of  
XM’s satellites and/or, depending on where you live,  
XM’s terrestrial repeaters. It is recommended that the  
antenna be positioned near a south-facing window or  
outdoors with a clear view of the southeastern sky in  
order to receive the satellite signal. In some cases, it  
will be possible to receive XM’s signal through  
standard home walls or a roof. To position your  
antenna, first set up the Boom Box as described  
earlier in this user guide. Next, position the antenna  
until you receive the strongest possible satellite sig-  
nal. If the satellite signal is not available, you can op-  
timize it for a terrestrial signal (where available).  
antenna needs to be repositioned. In addition,  
even if you are receiving the XM signal, it is  
recommended that you optimize the position of  
your XM Antenna as described in this section  
enabling you toreceive the strongest possible  
signal and consistent, mute-free reception. Your  
JXM900R display has two different signal-  
strength indicators which will help you optimize  
the antenna’s position: The first is a basic  
signal strength indicator visible at the upper  
right corner of the display screen during normal  
listening. It has from zero to three vertical bars;  
three bars represent the strongest signal. The

NOTE: Do not cut the antenna cable and attempt to  
splice it or attach alternative connectors or  
cable. The cable and connectors used in your  
JXM900B are specially chosen and attached  
at the factory to ensure that they will work  
with XM’s unique frequency band. Use an XM-  
approved antenna extension kit from your  
local consumer electronics retailer. Failure to  
do so could damage the unit.  
a. Apply power to the JXM900B Boom Box as  
outlined previously in section 3b and obtain an  
audio output. If no audio is heard, 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.  
cable; use protective grommets wherever  
rough openings are encountered.  
d. If the antenna is mounted outside, route the  
cable from the antenna position to the interior  
of the home, working the cable through the  
basement,under a window sill, etc.; make  
adjustments and take up slack whenever  
necessary.  
e. If outdoors, either leave the antenna in place  
atop the JXM900B, or remove the antenna and  
find a location free from overhead obstructions  
such as tree branches, or the roof of a tent or  
other temporary shelter.  
f. Plug the antenna cable into the ANT connector  
on the back of the Boom Box.  
g
If not using battery power as the primary power  
source, plug the female end of the DC Adapter  
cable into the “DC 12V receptacle on the rear of  
the Boom Box.  
b. After determining the optimum position, turn  
off JXM900B and Receiver power, disconnect the  
power adapter from the wall outlet receptacle  
(if indoors) and disconnect the antenna cable.  
h. Plug the other end of the DC adapter cable  
into a 110-volt wall receptacle. Apply power to  
the Boom Box and Receiver.  
i. You are now ready to enjoy XM programming  
outdoors or within your home.  
c. When indoors, plan the routing of the antenna  
cable to the cradle. Make sure you avoid any  
obstructions that could crimp, kink or twist the

Maintenance  
Periodic Inspection  
The JXM900B Boom Box should be inspected periodically for external damage. At least once every 30  
days of use, perform the following checks:  
1. Inspect the Receiver connector for loose, bent or broken pins, misalignment, etc.; make  
sure the JXM900R connector is intact and exhibits no apparent damage.  
2. Check the VOL control for freedom of motion without binding of any kind.  
3. Check that the MODE pushbutton operates correctly in that it toggles between the Satellite  
Radio output and the AUX input.  
4. Make sure the antenna connector at the rear of the unit is free from damage of any kind and that  
the antenna lead plug mates correctly and securely.  
5. Make sure the DC 12V connector at the rear of the unit is also free from damage of any kind and  
that the AC Adapter plug mates correctly and securely.  
6. Check the antenna for any physical damage; make sure the antenna lead is secure and not  
nicked or frayed.  
7. Inspect the overall Boom Box case and speaker grilles for damage such as nicks, scratches  
punctures, etc.  
Cleaning the JXM900B Boom Box  
When cleaning the Boom Box, make sure the AC Adapter is unplugged from the power source. Do not  
use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. Use a lint-free cloth lightly dampened with water for cleaning  
the exterior of the Boom Box only.
