IMPORTANT: For best wireless FM Modulator performance, you must locate the
satellite radio antenna in a location that is in close proximity to the vehicle's FM
antenna.
For example, with reference to Figure 1, if your FM antenna is located on a rear
fender or top of the roof, mount the XM antenna near the rear window location
(option 1). If your FM antenna is located on a front fender, mount the XM antenna
near the windshield location (option 2). Remember, the closer the satellite radio
antenna can be to the FM antenna, the better the wireless FM reception and sound
quality will be.
Keep excess cable

Step 2:
Be sure to locate your car cradle and receiver below the top of the dash in your
vehicle to keep the product within easy reach while driving. Choosing a lower
location in your installation should also make it easier to manage the cables and
achieve a more desirable appearance when the installation is completed. A lower
location for the receiver in the vehicle will ensure that the installation does not cause
interference with other FM radios outside the vehicle.
See illustration below (Fig 2) and be sure to locate your car cradle within the shaded
area.

Vehicle Installation Guidelines for XM Satellite Radio
This XM Receiver offers the listener a variety of options for connecting XM Satellite
Radio to your vehicle's FM radio. XM research and lab test results show that using a
vehicle cassette adapter can best maximize the relationship between the best sound
quality and ease of installation. If your vehicle kit does not include a cassette adapter,
one should be available at your local retailer or visit www.xmradio.com, click "Shop XM
Radio."
1. Cassette Adapter
Using a cassette adapter for audio is the most popular and best sounding solution.
Please follow steps 1 through 4 below for mounting the satellite radio antenna and
securing the XM receiver and cables.
2. Wired FM (Professional Installation Recommended)
A wired FM installation kit is available from your retailer for professional installation.
See your retailer for details. This solution is recommended if you cannot get
acceptable performance with the wireless FM modulator.
3. Wireless FM Modulator
The XM receiver is equipped with a FM modulator which can transmit the XM audio
to your car's FM radio without wires.
