ConsiderationsIf you will be installing the FM Direct Adapter (also known as a FM Relay Switch or FM Switch Box), it will directly connect the FM signal from your SIRIUS radio to your vehicle’s AM/FM radio, reduc-ing any interference which might be present from FM radio station broadcasts. When the SIRIUS radio is turned off, the vehicle’s FM antenna is automatically connected back to the vehicle’s AM/FM radio. The adapter connects directly in-line with the vehicle’s existing AM/FM antenna input.If you will not be installing the FM Direct Adapter, the FM Out Plug must remain installed in the S50 vehicle dock to ensure that your S50 radio operates properly and does not interfere with other radios.SIRIUS suggests professional installation of the FM Direct Adapter in your vehicle. Ask your SIRIUS retailer if they provide professional installation services, or can recommend a professional installa-tion service.Certain vehicle models will require adapters to connect the vehicle’s AM/FM antenna to the FM Direct Adapter, and to connect the FM Direct Adapter to the vehicle’s AM/FM radio. Your SIRIUS retailer may sell these adapters, or a professional installer may be able to provide them.InstallationFigure 1 shows an overall diagram of the FM Direct Adapter installation with your vehicle’s AM/FM radio and your SIRIUS S50 radio.FM DIRECT ADAPTERVEHICLE AM/FMANTENNAVEHICLE AM/FM RADIOSIRIUS S50 RADIO& VEHICLE DOCKFROM VEHICLEAM/FM ANTENNATO S50 VEHICLE DOCKTO VEHICLEAM/FM RADIOFigure 1Figure 1To install the FM Direct Adapter in your vehicle follow these steps:Consult a professional installer to assist you in removing the FM Out Plug from the FM OUT connection at the rear of S50 vehicle dock.
