If you need help, consult aprofessional installer.1. Decide which method (cassette adapter, professionalwired FM, or self install via the XM SureConnect) isbest for your vehicle and location.2. Always do a trial run before installing anythingpermanently. Temporarily connect all power, audio,and antenna lines. Make sure that you receive theXM signal and that you hear XM programmingthrough your vehicle’s audio system. You must haveyour vehicle antenna plugged in to the cradle or theXM SureConnect to receive the signal.TIP: Your MyFi battery will charge in the vehicle cradleonly while the MyFi power is turned ON. Please refer to“Other Things You Should Know” (page 35) for addi-tional information regarding charging the MyFi battery.Audio qualityUse the CASSETTE ADAPTER if your vehicle’s audiosystem has a built-in cassette player.TIP: If you experience difficulty obtaining a strongantenna signal based on your particular home setupconditions, a home antenna extension cable (modelXMAC1000, sold separately) was designed specificallyto help you and is available at www.xmradio.com alongwith many other cool XM Satellite Radio accessories.29

30 31For a neat, fully integrated installation, use the DELPHIFM DIRECT ADAPTER (model SA10112, sold separately).We recommend that you consult a professional installer.Self Install (XM SureConnect), See the XM SureConnctInstallation Guide for more information.Placing the antennaYour XM antenna should be mounted on the vehicle’smetallic roof, at least 6" from any window or sunroof.Avoid crimping,twisting, or chafingthe XM antennacable. Try to useexisting holes, bodygrommets, and otherwiring channels.If the vehicle is ahard- or soft-topconvertible, you may mount the antenna on the metaltrunk lid. It should be at least 4" from the rear window.Ensure that the antenna and cable don’t interfere with theopening or closing of the convertible top and the trunk lid.TIP: If you route the antenna cable through the trunkseal, use the lowest part of the weather seal. This shouldminimize any water leaks.TIP: Don’t install the XM antenna inside your vehicle oron a nonmetallic surface. Doing so will likely degradethe signal and you will probably experience more signalinterruptions.TO FMANTXMANTTO XMRADIOTO FMRADIOMade in MalaysiaKeep excess cablebehind or under thedashboard.option 2option 1
