Vehicle Installation
Step 6: Connect the Audio
To play audio through your vehicle’s stereo or FM radio, use one of the following
audio connection options:
•Option 1: Best: Use the included Aux In Cable if your vehicle’s stereo
system has an auxiliary input connection. Refer to your vehicle’s owners
manual to find the location of the auxiliary input jack, or consult the
vehicle dealer.
TIP! The auxiliary input jack may be located on the face plate of the vehicle
radio, on the back of the radio, anywhere on the front dash panel, inside the glove
compartment, or inside the center console in between the front seats.
•Option 2: Better: Use a Cassette Adapter if your vehicle has a built-in
cassette player. Cassette Adapters are sold separately and can be
purchased from an electronics retailer, or go to xmradio.com/accessories.
•Option 3: Good: Use the PowerConnect feature in your Satellite Radio.
PowerConnect plays the audio through your vehicle’s FM radio.
•Option 4: Best: Use the FM Direct Adapter. If none of the previous three
audio connection options will work in your vehicle, then you will need to use
the FM Direct Adapter (FMDA) (Model: FMDA25, sold separately). The FMDA
needs to be installed by a professional installer and directly connects the
Radio to your vehicle’s FM radio. To learn more, check with the retailer where
you bought your Radio, or go to www.xmradio.com/accessories.
Follow the installation instructions in the next several sections for the audio
connection option that you have selected.
