Installation/Wiring Precautions
1. To prevent a short-circuit, be sure to turn off the ignition and remove
the negative (-) battery cable prior to installation. Connect power
wires last.
2. Do not install the unit in the locations exposed to direct sunlight or,
in areas subject to extreme temperatures.
3. Incorrect installation may cause damage to the system. Mount
the unit firmly in place, using the supplied hardware.
4. Be careful not to damage the vehicle wiring.
5. Be sure to use the supplied screws and washers.
6. Be careful not to snag any wires when tightening screws.
7. Use only the 12 Volt-to-5 Volt DC Power Adapter supplied. Use of an
alternative power adapter may damage the Xpress XM® unit and/or
the XMC10 cradle.
CAUTION: You could drain the vehicle battery if the DC power
adapter remains plugged in after the ignition is turned
off. Unplug the adapter to prevent this possibility.
Setting Up and Installing Your Kit
NOTE: The XM signal can be received and processed virtually
anywhere as long as there are no obvious satellite signal
obstructions such as nearby buildings, high terrain, parking
garages or tunnels.
1. Cabling Interconnections
You can begin to enjoy XM® Satellite Radio as soon as the Xpress
XM® Receiver and Vehicle Kit installation are complete. Set up
your Audiovox Xpress XM® System using the following installation
instructions, or enlist the help of a professional installer:
2. Installing the Cradle Mount Base Assembly
a. Interconnect all of the components as shown on the adjacent
page to verify that the system operates normally.
b. Locate a firm, reasonably flat surface within your car to permit
optimum viewing and line-of-sight access by the supplied remote
control unit.

CAUTION:
Do not install the swivel bracket on a leather or
fabric surface, or in a position that could impair
your vision, block air bag(s) or obstruct vehicle
dashboard controls and/or radio CD/cassette
operational displays.
NOTE: The adhesive backing on the bracket will not permit
easy repositioning once it has been mated to the
surface; use extreme care and planning when
selecting the mounting location. If the bracket is to be
screwed to the surface, make sure the area in back of
the mounting surface is clear of wires or other items to
prevent unintentional damage.
c. Using the alcohol swab supplied with your kit, clean the mounting
surface and thoroughly wipe the area dry with a clean lint-free
cloth.
d. If the outside air temperature is cold, it may be beneficial to
warm the adhesive backing on the bracket using a portable hair
dryer, or by holding the backing surface in front of a vehicle
heater vent.
12
e.
Remove the plastic liner from the adhesive backing on the
bracket, and fix the base in position on the surface; make sure
the mounting pad is accurately positioned on the first try, since
repositioning may be difficult, if not impossible.
f.
If the bracket is to be screwed in place, do not remove the plastic
liner from the adhesive backing. Use appropriate sheet metal
or machine screws for this purpose.
g.
To mount the XMC10 cradle atop the swivel bracket, line up
the slot at the rear of the cradle with the bracket retainer tab,
and slide the cradle down so that the slot and tab mesh together
in a locked position.
NOTE: Allow a 72-hour period for the adhesive backing to cure
completely.

The XMC10 Cradle can also be installed using other manufacturer’s
mounts; the mounting plate provisions on the rear and bottom of
thecradle provide you with two mounting options within the vehicle
using various vehicle-specific aftermarket brackets.
4. Installing the Xpress XM® Receiver into the Cradle
Install the Receiver as follows:
a. After making sure the connectors and guide pin hole are properly
lined up, gently lower the Xpress XM® Receiver into the cradle
and press down on the Xpress XM® Receiver to mate the
connectors together. The raised detent on the cradle will enter
the notch on the rear of the Receiver, indicating the Xpress XM®
is properly seated.
b. The Xpress XM® Receiver should now be secured in the
cradle

5. Connection Options
The Xpress Receiver and Cradle provide an audio output signal
in three ways:
a. FM Modulator - When using the XMC10 cradle with the
FM modulator option, the XM audio signal can be received
through your vehicle radio on selectable FM frequencies
using the menu options included in your Xpress Receiver.
(Refer to the Receiver owner’s manual.) The XM audio signal
can then be played through your vehicle radio when the car
radio is tuned to one of the available frequencies.
b. FM Direct Wiring - If the FM modulator does not provide
satisfactory performance in your vehicle, use the optional
FM Direct Adapter, Part # XMFM-1, which provides a hardwired FM output.
c. Low-Level Audio Output - For vehicles equipped with radio
head units with auxiliary audio inputs, the audio signal can
be routed through an optional audio cable (Part No. SATRCA) and applied to the auxiliary inputs of a radio or
entertainment system. In this case, it is best to turn the
Xpress Receiver FM modulator option off to avoid
interference.
17
d.
Xpress Cassette Adapter -The XM7 Xpress Cassette Adapter
offers an additional audio connection option by utilizing your
existing vehicles in-dash cassette deck.
XM7 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 (see chart below).

Xpress Cassette Adapter Installation.
Installation is simple.
1.) Plug the end jack (1) into the XM7 Xpress Car Cradle’s
audio output (2).
2.) Insert the cassette adapter (3) in the vehicles in-dash
cassette slot (4).

6. Installation Guidelines
Step 1.
First, determine the proper location for your satellite radio antenna
based on the following criteria for your specific vehicle:
a. You must locate the satellite radio antenna on the top of the
roof either in front of the rear window (option 1) or behind the
windshield (option 2). The satellite radio antenna will perform
best if magnetically attached to a steel surface with an
unobstructed view of the open sky and minimum of 3 to 6
inches of metal surrounding the antenna.
OPTION 1
OPTION 2
KEEP EXCESS CABLE
UNDER OR BEHIND
THE DASHBOARD
b. When routing the antenna cable along the windshield or rear
window, tuck the antenna cable under the window seal to
maintain a professional looking installation and to avoid
loose wires on the exterior of the vehicle which are suscep
tible to damage. Follow the interior cable routing diagram
depicted by dashed lines in the illustration above where
possible.
20
c. Avoid kinking, crimping, twisting or chafing the cable. Use
pre-existing wire channels when possible.
d. For option 1 and rear mounting locations, route the cable into
the trunk as shown in the previous illustration. Always cross
the weather seal at the lowest part of the trunk to reduce water
leaks. From the trunk, route the cable into the passenger
compartment through available wire channels and then along
the floor under the door jam trim or under the carpet to the
front of the passenger compartment. Do not leave the cable
loose in the passenger compartment where it is likely to be
damaged.
e. For option 2 and front mounting locations, route the cable
along the door jam and into the vehicle as shown. Route the
cable across the weather seal near the bottom of the door to
reduce water leaks.
21
Step 2.
Once you have plugged the power
and antenna jacks into the car
cradle, use the included cable
organizer as shown in the illustra
tion at right to improve the overall
appearance of the installation.
Step 3.
Re-use the cable twist ties that were
provided with the power adapter and
car antenna cables and always be
sure to gather, bundle, twist-tie, and
secureany excess cable remaining
after determining the best location for
your satellite radio intallation.
For example, secure the excess cable up under your dash board,
between the seat and the console, or on the floor under a seat or
floor mat. This will help to prevent the excess cable from interfering with the everyday use of your vehicle, improve the appearance
of the installation, and avoid any undesirable accidental damage
to the cables that might result in loss of power or satellite signal.
Be sure to choose a location carefully by taking notice of how
doors and trunks open and close, as well as how seats move
when they are adjusted so you can be certain there is ample
clearance provided for the cables.
