we've been working constantly to create the best satellite radio
receiver. We imagined a radio that works not only in a vehicle, a
home, or an office, but something you can take with you virtually
anywhere you go. Now we have it: introducing MyFi, the world's first
truly portable satellite radio receiver.
With your MyFi, you can

below; plug the AC adaptor
into an outlet. Let the
battery charge for at least
three hours.
Turn on your MyFi by
pressing the power button.
You should be able to hear
Channel 1, the XM Preview
Channel. If you do not, and
the screen displays “NO
SIGNAL,” try moving your
MyFi's antenna to another
location. Make sure the
antenna points south
outdoors or through a
window. To maximize the
signal, refer to “Aiming the
home antenna” (page ##).

Assemble Home Stand
Connect to Stereo
Aim Antenna
Connect to Stereo
Plug the AC adaptor into an outlet. Connect the home antenna and
connect the line out to either your home stereo or powered (PC type)
speakers.
Turn the dial to highlight channel 0, and press the dial in to select it.
You should see an 8-character XM Radio ID in the display. (The XM
Radio ID should also be on your MyFi's package and under the
battery.) Write the ID here:
The XM Radio ID does not use the letters I, O, S, and F.
Activate your XM Satellite Radio service by contacting XM at
http://activate.xmradio.com or by calling 1.800.XM.RADIO
(1.800.967.2346). You will need the XM Radio ID and a major credit
card.
XM will send a signal from the satellite to activate the full channel
line-up. Activation normally takes 10-15 minutes, but during peak
busy periods, you may need to keep MyFi on for up to an hour to
complete the activation process. When you can access the full
channel lineup on your MyFi, you're done!
Go ahead!
Rotate the dial to preview a list of channels. When you find one
you're interested in, press the dial in to tune to that channel.
Insert battery
Important! You will need to fully charge your Myfi battery for at
least three hours to have sufficient battery power for portable use.

Storing song information in memory
Ever hear a song and later forget the artist's name or song title? Let
your MyFi remember for you.
TO STORE A SONG'S INFORMATION IN MEMORY, press and release
the “mem” button while the song or program is playing. Your MyFi
will beep to confirm.

information, you can rotate the dial to view each entry.
Your MyFi can hold up to 20 entries, after which any new entry
replaces the oldest entry in memory.
TuneSelect : always find your favorite songs or artists
If you can't get enough of a certain artist or song, your MyFi can tell
you when it's currently being played on any XM channel.
1.Press the “menu” button and choose the “TuneSelect” option.
2.Choose either “Select by Song” or “Select by Artist.” “Select by Song”
finds a song or program by its title; “Select by Artist” searches using
the artist's name.
3. When you hear one of your favorite songs or artists, press and hold
the dial in. Your MyFi will beep and flash “Song Selected” or “Artist
Selected” on the display. This signals that your chosen song title or
artist name is saved in the TuneSelect list. The list holds up to 20
entries (either artist names or song titles); when the list is full, any
new entry replaces the oldest song title or artist in the list.
4.When any song or artist on the list is currently playing on any other
XM channel, your MyFi will beep and flash “Artist/Song Found” on
the screen. Switch to that channel by pressing in the dial.
5.You may erase individual song titles or artists from the list, or all the
songs and artists. Using the “menu” button and dial, choose the
“TuneSelect” option and then select either “Erase All” or “Erase
Some.” Follow the instructions on your MyFi's display.

Make any FM radio an XM radio
Your MyFi contains a built-in FM transmitter that sends the XM audio
signal to any nearby FM radio home stereo, boombox, car radio, or
marine radio.
1. Turn on your FM radio, and turn off your MyFi. Unplug any
headphone or audio cable from your MyFi's headphone jack, and
any audio cables connected to the home stand or vehicle cradle.
2. You need to find an FM frequency that is not being used by any
commercial FM station.Tune your FM radio to the following FM
frequencies: 88.1, 88.3, 88.5, 88.7, 88.9, 106.7, 106.9, 107.1, 107.3,
107.5, 107.7, and 107.9. Note which frequency has no FM station or
the least amount of interference.
3. Turn on your MyFi.
4. Using the “menu” button and the dial, select “Set FM Frequency.”
5. Rotate the dial to highlight the FM frequency you found in step 2.
Press the dial in to select that frequency.
6. You should now hear XM programming on your FM radio. If the
sound isn't clear or you hear noise or static, try another FM
frequency. If you're traveling, you may need to retune periodically;
this is due to the differences in signal strength of local FM stations
and is not a problem with your MyFi.
TIP: When you plug headphones, a cassette adaptor, or an audio
cable into the headphone jack, your MyFi automatically turns off the
FM transmitter.
TIP: In the rare situation that you cannot find an open FM frequency,
consult a professional car audio installer. You can improve the audio
performance in your vehicle by using the Delphi FM Direct Adaptor
(model SA10112, sold separately).
Stock Ticker
With your MyFi, you can track up to 20 stock symbols and see their
prices and movements right on the screen.*
TO ADD A STOCK SYMBOL:
1. Using the “menu” button and dial, select “Stock Ticker.”
2. Rotate the dial to highlight “Add Stocks” and press dial in to select.
3. Rotate the dial to add each letter of the desired stock symbol. Press
the dial in after choosing each letter. (Your MyFi has a list of over
9000 stock symbols, and will not only help you complete each
entry but prevents you from entering incorrect symbols.) Confirm
the stock symbol is the stock you want to enter.
4. When you've entered all your desired stock symbols, press the
“menu” button several times (or simply wait a few seconds) until
your MyFi returns to normal operation.
5. Press the “display” button until you see “Stocks” and a scrolling
ticker across the bottom of the screen. This display mode only
works when you're listening to “LIVE” programming.
TO ERASE some or all of the stock symbols, use the “menu” button
and rotate dial to select “Stock Ticker,” then to select “Erase Stocks.”
Follow the directions on your MyFi's screen.
*Quotes are provided by ComStock, Inc. and cover most stocks listed
on the NYSE, AMEX, or NASDAQ exchanges. Market information is
delayed by approximately 25 minutes.
Info Extras
XM Satellite Radio will broadcast information such as sports scores
and other features from time to time. To see what's available, press
the “menu” button and select “Info Extras.” Simply follow the
instructions on the display to select which Info Extras you're
interested in.
To view your chosen Info Extras, press the “display” button until you
see the Info Extras items at the bottom of the screen. You can also
affect how you view Info Extras by selecting the “Change Display”
option in the menu.
Direct Tune - select channels faster
Normally as you rotate the dial, you can preview what's playing on
other XM channels before you push the dial in to select a channel. To
automatically tune to the channel without pressing the dial, you can
set the following option:
1. Use the “menu” button and dial to select “Channel Access.”
2. Select “Direct Tune.”
3. Select “Direct Tune On.” (To return to the factory-default method,
select “Direct Tune Off.”)
Setting time features
XM automatically sets the minutes of your MyFi's built-in clock. You
can adjust the hours by time zone, choose 12- or 24-hour formats,
and choose whether Daylight Savings Time is used in your area.
Your MyFi also has a sleep timer and an alarm. You can set the sleep
timer to shut off your MyFi automatically after 15 minutes up to 1
hour. The alarm turns on your MyFi at a certain time; you can choose
to be alerted by a beep or by XM programming.
For vehicles with power outlets that are always powered, we
recommend that you use the “Delayed Power OFF” feature. This
avoids draining your vehicle battery if your MyFi is left on.
Skipping channels
You can simplify the list of channels that
you see when you rotate the dial. To
skip over a channel:
1. Use the “menu” button and scroll
wheel to select “Channel Access.”
2. Choose the “Channel Skip/Add”
option.
3. You will see a list of channels. There is a “+” or a “-“ in front of each
channel. To skip a channel, highlight that channel and press the
dial in to change the “+” to “-.” To add a channel, change the “-“ to a
“+.”
4. When you're done, press the “menu” button twice (or do nothing
for 15 seconds) until your MyFi returns to normal operation.
TIP: You can still tune to any channel directly by entering the channel
number directly or by pressing a preset. Skipping a channel does
not remove it from use.
TIP: This should not be used for “parental control.” To completely
block access to any XM channel, contact XM Listener Care at
1.800.XM.RADIO (1.800.967.2346).
Returning to factory defaults
You can return your MyFi to the state it was shipped from the factory.
Be careful: this feature erases all settings, including stock ticker,
display options, audio options, channel skip/add, Info Extras, and
anything stored in “MY XM.”
1. Use the “menu” button and dial to select “Set Factory Defaults.”
2. Select “Yes” to restore your MyFi to the factory settings
Using MyFi at Home
Turn off your MyFi and your audio system. Connect your MyFi to your
audio system in either way illustrated below.
If you use the home stand and connect it to a stereo, you must plug
in the AC adaptor and home antenna. Your MyFi's audio output will
not work if these are not connected.
If you attach your MyFi
to powered speakers,
adjust the audio level
using the speakers'
volume control.
TIP: If you hear nothing,
try adjusting the volume
controls located on the
MyFi. If there does not
appear to be power,
check all connections
and make sure all plugs
are inserted completely.
Aiming the home antenna
Your MyFi can help you aim the home antenna to pull in the
strongest signal available.
1. Using the “menu” button and dial,
choose “ Antenna Aiming.”
2. Slowly turn and tilt the antenna. The
signal bars on the display will
change. Find the position that gives
at least two bars on either “satellite”
or “terrestrial.”
3. The antenna aiming screen remains as long as it's needed to help
you position the antenna. When you've found the best position,
press the “menu” button to return to normal operation.
Using MyFi In Your Vehicle
Because every vehicle is different, we can only provide some general
guidelines. If you need help, consult a professional installer.
1. Decide which method (cassette adaptor, wireless FM transmitter, or
wired connection) is best for your vehicle and location.
2. Always do a trial run before installing anything permanently.
Temporarily connect all power, audio, and antenna lines. Make sure
that you receive the XM signal and that you hear XM programming
through your vehicle's audio system.
Audio quality
Use the CASSETTE ADAPTOR if your vehicle's audio system has a
built-in cassette player.
Cassette
Adaptor Wired
FM Wireless
FM
Audio Quality
For a neat, fully integrated installation, use the DELPHI FM DIRECT
ADAPTOR (SA10112, sold separately). We recommend that you
consult a professional installer.
The WIRELESS FM TRANSMITTER is the easiest and quickest way to
hear XM programming in your vehicle. Simply set your FM radio and
your MyFi to the same frequency.
(optional accessory)
Placing the antenna
Your XM antenna should be mounted on the vehicle's metallic roof,
at least 6" from any window or sunroof. It can be placed in the front,
middle, or rear of the roof.
Avoid crimping,
twisting, or chafing
the XM antenna
cable. Try to use
existing holes, body
grommets, and other
wiring channels.
If the car is a hard- or
soft-top convertible,
you may mount the
antenna on the metal
trunk lid. It should be
at least 4" from the rear window. Ensure that the antenna and cable
don't interfere with the opening or closing of the convertible top
and the trunk lid.
TIP: You can choose whether or not your MyFi automatically turns on
when you turn the ignition key. Please see “Setting time features”
(page ##).
TIP: If you route the antenna cable through the trunk seal, use the
lowest part of the weather seal. This should minimize any water
leaks.
TIP: If you use your MyFi's wireless FM transmitter, mount the XM
antenna as close to your vehicle's FM antenna as possible. The FM
antenna may be a wire or metallic strip embedded in the windshield
or rear window.
TIP: Don't install the XM antenna inside your vehicle or on a non-
metallic surface. Doing so will likely degrade the signal and you will
probably experience more signal interruptions.
Mounting your MyFi on the dash
We've included 3 types of mounts to help you install your MyFi in
your vehicle's interior.
FLUSH MOUNT: Attach the included Velcro® pads
or adhesive pad to the back of your MyFi's vehicle
cradle. Stick the vehicle cradle onto a flat surface
in your vehicle, preparing the surface as
described below. Do not install the mount on a
leather surface. Doing so could permanently
damage the surface.
VENT MOUNT: Assemble the vent
mount as shown, if not already
assembled. Find a horizontal air vent
that is strong enough to hold the
weight of your MyFi and its cradle. Clip
the vent mount into the vent.
SWIVEL MOUNT: Find a suitable
location; the mount uses a strong
adhesive and you'll have difficulty
repositioning it after installation. Do
not install this mount on a leather
surface. Make sure the air temperature
is at least 60 F.
1. Clean the mounting surface with the
enclosed surface preparation kit.
Allow to air-dry.
2. Clean the same surface with the
alcohol prep pad. Allow to air-dry.
3. You may warm the adhesive pad
using a hair dryer or the vehicle's defroster. Place the swivel mount
accurately since it will bond on the first try.
4. For best results, do not touch or apply any pressure to the vehicle
mount for 72 hours.
To remove the swivel mount, first try lifting the adhesive pad with
your fingers or a spoon. You may warm it with a hair dryer for 2-3
minutes to help soften the adhesive. Remove any leftover adhesive
from the dash surface by rubbing with your finger, or you can use a
mild cleaner as recommended by your vehicle's manufacturer.
Using MyFi On the Go
Your MyFi contains a built-in antenna that works best when your
MyFi receiver is upright. Use the belt clip to hold your MyFi in the
proper position; laying your MyFi down flat may weaken reception.
TIP: If you carry your MyFi in a bag or use it while exercising, you can
lock the buttons and dial and prevent something from accidentally
pressing the buttons. Press and hold the “mute/pause/lock” button
until you see the lock indicator in the display. To unlock the controls,
press and hold the “mute/pause/lock” button until the lock
indicator disappears.
TIP: The belt clip doubles as a table stand; just pull out the back leg.
TIP: You can plug the AC or cigarette lighter adaptor directly into the
bottom of your MyFi without using the home stand or vehicle
cradle.
Use the wearable antenna when you want to improve signal
reception or if you carry your MyFi in a bag or close to your body.
Wearable Antenna
Signal Reception Guidelines
Your MyFi's antenna should have an unobstructed view of the XM
satellites in the southern sky. In large cities, XM also has a network of
ground repeaters to help increase the signal coverage.
Other Things You Should Know
Care
You should be able to take your MyFi along with you during most of
your daily activities. Still, you should remember:
" Your MyFi is not waterproof. Avoid splashing it with liquids and
never submerge it underwater.
" Take your MyFi with you when you leave your vehicle, especially on
a hot day. Not only can you continue to enjoy XM programming, but
you'll also prolong the life of your MyFi's case, display, and battery.
" If your MyFi does get dirty, wipe the case with a soft cloth lightly
moistened with water, then wipe dry with another cloth. Avoid
chemicals such as paint thinner, alcohol, or abrasive cleansers.
Important Battery information - Please Read
Your MyFi's battery should be
charged before you use the radio.
The amount of charge is indicated
by the battery level meter in your
MyFi's display. When you're
charging the battery, you will see
a “+” in the meter; when the
battery is exhausted, you will see
a “-“ in the meter.
When you use your MyFi for the
first time, charge the battery until
the meter indicates it's fully
charged. Then use your MyFi
until the battery is exhausted. This
charge/discharge cycle calibrates the battery level meter so that it
accurately reports the state of the battery.
Your battery performs best when used and charged in an ambient
temperature of between 50°F to 90°F (10°C to 32°C). Do not leave
your MyFi inside a hot vehicle or in direct sunlight.
Batteries gradually wear down and require longer charging times.
When a battery no longer holds its charge, you should purchase a
new battery. Always use authorized Delphi batteries and power
adaptors.
To prevent injuring yourself or damaging your MyFi, do not
disassemble, crush, or puncture the battery. Never allow metal to
touch the battery terminals.
<recycle logo>
Your MyFi's rechargeable battery should be disposed of properly
and may need to be recycled. Contact your local recycler for details.
Never dispose of batteries in a fire or water as they may explode.
To remove the battery, follow these steps as shown below. Use the
clear tab to help you pull the battery out.

Troubleshooting
Your MyFi should provide you with trouble-free performance
without needing any servicing. If it does not appear to be working
properly, first try to remedy the problem by following these steps:
1. Attach all connections firmly and securely.
2. Make sure the battery is fully charged and has been properly
cycled.
3. Reset your MyFi by removing the battery cover and inserting a
paper clip into the hole marked “RESET” at the upper left hand
corner of the case. You can also reset your MyFi by removing the
battery, then reinserting it.
