[ Getting Started ]10Getting StartedSIRIUS suggests professional installation of this product in your vehicle. Professional instal-lation provides an experienced technician to install this product in your vehicle, advice for selecting a suitable mounting location, installation of the antenna, and routing all the neces-sary wires and cables. An installer will have the necessary audio connection accessories to provide optimal audio output of the SIRIUS receiver directly to your vehicle’s audio system. Ask your SIRIUS retailer if they provide professional installation services, or can recommend a professional installation service.Maximizing Audio Quality From Your SIRIUS ReceiverThere are two primary ways to connect your SIRIUS satellite radio. The following procedures will help you obtain the best performance.Wireless ConneCtionYour SIRIUS radio contains an FM transmitter. The FM transmitter sends the audio from your SIRIUS radio to your vehicle radio. (Figure 1)90.1To tune your transmitter:Turn off your SIRIUS radio and tune through the FM channels on your vehicle radio to locate an FM channel that is not broadcasting in your area. If you use an FM channel 1.Figure 1Figure 1

[ Getting Started ] 11that is being used by a local broadcaster, it will interfere with the performance of your SIRIUS radio. Once you have located an FM channel that is not broadcasting in your area, save it as a preset on your vehicle radio. This will become your SIRIUS preset.Turn on your SIRIUS radio. Press and hold the FM Preset button, which is identified by the radio icon, to access the five FM preset lists. Select FM1 and tune to the chan-nel that matches the SIRIUS preset on your vehicle radio. Refer to the Menu Options/FM Transmitter section of this manual for more detailed instructions on how to do this.Note: The FM transmitter in your SIRIUS radio is automatically set to FM channel 88.1. This may not be the best channel in your area. Tip: If you regularly travel between cities with different active FM channels, you may need to find channels that are not broadcasting in each city. Several SIRIUS receiver models can store multiple FM transmit channels, so you can easily switch to the best FM channel for each city. You will also want to set the FM channels that are not broadcasting in each city as presets on your vehicle radio. If you’re not sure which FM channels are not broadcasting in your home or travel cities, you can also go to http://SIRIUS.com/fmchannel and search for a suggested FM channel based on your zip code.DireCt ConneCtionsDirect connection provides better audio performance than a wireless connection and removes the possibility of interference from local FM broadcasters.Direct Wired Audio ConnectionIf your vehicle radio offers an “AUX IN” or “LINE IN” connection, it is the best audio connec-tion available. If the “AUX IN” or “LINE IN” connector is located on the front of your vehicle radio, this is also the easiest connection. (Figure 2)Purchase an audio cable that matches the connection type of your vehicle radio and your SIRIUS radio at your local electronics retailer. Your SIRIUS radio requires a 1/8” stereo male connector. Your local electronics retailer can help you determine the proper con-nection for your car radio.Plug one end of the cable into the “AUDIO OUT” or “LINE OUT” jack on your SIRIUS radio. Plug the other end into your “AUX IN” or “LINE IN” jack on your vehicle radio.2.1.2.

[ Getting Started ]12FM OFFNOTE: Refer to your vehicle radio manufacturer’s guidelines for correct installation.NOTE: If the “AUX IN” or “LINE IN” connection is on the back of your vehicle radio, you may want to consider professional installation. (Figure 3)FM OFFCassette Adapter If your vehicle radio has a cassette player:Purchase a Cassette Adapter at your local electronics retailer.Connect the adapter between the “AUDIO OUT” or “LINE OUT” on your SIRIUS radio and the vehicle radio’s cassette slot. (Figure 4)FM OFF1.2.Figure 2Figure 2Figure 3Figure 3Figure 4Figure 4

[ Getting Started ] 13NOTE: Refer to the cassette adapter manufacturer’s guidelines for correct use.SIRIUS FM Direct AdapterIf your vehicle radio does not have an “AUX IN” or “LINE IN” jack, the SIRIUS FM Direct Adap-tor provides a wired connection between your SIRIUS radio and your vehicle radio, eliminating the outside static and interference you sometimes experience when using a wireless FM connection. (Figure 5)90.1FMDIRECTADAPTER Professional installation may be required. See your local SIRIUS retailer.For the latest information refer to http://www.SIRIUS.com/vehicleinstallation.(The SIRIUS FM Direct Adaptor is available at your local SIRIUS retailer or at http://shop.SIRIUS.com).Figure 5Figure 5
