Step 4: Route the Antenna Cable
Before you begin routing the antenna cable, read these general instructions for how to route and hide
the antenna cable. Then route your antenna cable according to the step-by-step instructions which
follow for your specific type of vehicle.
Use care when routing the antenna cable into and through the vehicle interior, avoiding sharp objects
that can damage the cable. Keep the antenna cable away from moving parts such as gas, clutch,
and brake pedals, trunk and door hinges, and sliding seat brackets. Hide the antenna wire inside the
vehicle cabin by routing the cable under the carpet and behind plastic trim, toward the Tuner Module
location. Coil and secure any excess cable in a hidden location, such as under the carpet, using wire
ties (not included). CAUTION! Do not kink or sharply fold the antenna cable.

Step 6: Connect the Audio
To play XM audio through your vehicle’s stereo or FM radio, decide on one of the following audio
connection options:
• Option 1: Best: Use the provided Aux In Cable if your vehicle’s stereo system has an auxiliary
input connection or jack. Refer to your vehicle’s owners manual to find the location of the
auxiliary input jack, or consult the vehicle dealer.
TIP! The auxiliary input jack may be located on the face plate of the vehicle radio, on the
back of the radio, anywhere on the front dash panel, inside the glove compartment, or
inside the center console in between the front seats.
• Option 2: Better: Use a Cassette Adapter if your vehicle has a built-in cassette player. Cassette
Adapters are sold separately and can be purchased from an electronics retailer, or go to www.
siriusxm.com/accessories.
• Option 3: Good: Use the PowerConnect feature of Onyx Plus. PowerConnect plays the audio
through your vehicle’s FM radio.
• Option 4: Best: Use the FM Direct Adapter. If none of the previous three audio connection
options will work in your vehicle, then you will need to use the FM Direct Adapter (FMDA) (sold
separately). The FMDA needs to be installed by a professional installer and directly connects
Onyx Plus to your vehicle’s FM radio. To learn more, check with the retailer where you bought
your Radio, or go to www.siriusxm.com/accessories.
Follow the installation instructions in the next several sections for the audio connection option that
you have selected.

one of the following methods to find an available FM channel:
a.	 Use the SiriusXM FM Channel Finder at www.siriusxm.com/
fmchannel. Go to the website and enter your zip code. The
Channel Finder will suggest a list of available FM channels in your
area. For convenience, write down or print out the list.

OR
b.	 Manually tune through your local FM channels on your vehicle’s
FM radio. Locate and create a list of channels that aren’t being
used by any FM radio station. Write down the list. Once you have
created your list of available FM channels, you will need to find the
one that provides the best match for Onyx EZR.
TIP! You’ll need to use the ‘Manual’ tune function on your vehicle’s FM radio to tune
through every FM channel one-by-one. Turn on your vehicle’s FM radio. Start at 88.1 and
use the ‘Manual’ tune function on your vehicle’s FM radio to tune through each FM channel
one-by-one (88.1 followed by 88.3 etc.) to locate channels that aren’t being used by a local
FM radio station. Write down each FM channel that has only static or silence on it, until
you reach 107.9.
6. Ensure Onyx EZR is tuned to channel 1, the XM Preview channel. Upon power up, Onyx EZR
should tune to channel 1 by default, when it’s not yet activated. If it’s not on channel 1, refer to
“Tuning to a Channel” on page 28 to learn about how to tune a channel.

Find Available FM Channels in Your Area
Before attempting any of the procedures below, you should park your vehicle in a safe location. Do
not attempt to set up your FM channels or any Onyx EZR function while driving.
PowerConnect allows you to listen to SiriusXM through your existing vehicle radio. You will first need
to find an available FM channel, which is a channel that is not being used by an FM radio station in
your area. When you tune your vehicle’s FM radio to an available channel, you should only hear static
or silence – not talk or music.
Once you have found an available FM channel, you’ll need to tune Onyx EZR and your vehicle’s radio
to the same FM channel to receive XM audio through your vehicle’s radio.
We recommend one of the following methods to find an available FM channel:
1. Use the SiriusXM FM Channel Finder
Use the SiriusXM FM Channel Finder at www.siriusxm.com/fmchannel. Go to the website and
enter your zip code. The Channel Finder will suggest a list of available FM channels in your area.
For convenience, write down or print out the list.
Tune Onyx EZR to a favorite XM channel (or to channel 1, if it’s not activated). Turn on your
vehicle’s FM radio. Pick the first FM channel on your Channel Finder list and tune the FM radio
to that channel. If you do not hear a local FM station broadcast, then tune Onyx EZR to the
same FM channel. (Refer to “Set and Select an FM Channel” on page 39.) You should hear
the XM channel through your vehicle’s radio. If you are satisfied with the sound quality, you’re
done! If this FM channel doesn’t work well for you, work down the list until you find an FM
channel that allows you to hear XM clearly.
OR
2. Manually tune through your local FM channels
Manually tune through your local FM channels on your vehicle’s FM radio. Turn on your vehicle’s
FM radio. Start at 88.1 and use the ‘Manual’ tune function on your vehicle’s FM radio to tune
through each FM channel one-by-one (88.1 followed by 88.3 etc.) to locate channels that aren’t

Configuring Your Onyx EZR
being used by a local FM radio station. Write down each FM channel that has only static or silence
on it, until you reach 107.9. Once you have created your list of available FM channels, you will need
to find the one that provides the best match for Onyx EZR.
Tune Onyx EZR to a favorite XM channel (or to channel 1, if it’s not activated). Pick the first FM
channel on your list and tune the FM radio to that channel. Then tune Onyx EZR to the same
FM channel. (Refer to “Set and Select an FM Channel” on page 39.) You should hear the XM
channel through your vehicle’s radio. If you are satisfied with the sound quality, you’re done! If this
FM channel doesn’t work well for you, work down the list until you find an FM channel that allows
you to hear XM clearly.
NOTE! You may find an FM channel with static or silence that does not work with Onyx
EZR. It is possible that some type of inaudible interference is present that prevents
reception of the XM broadcast. Your only options are to use another FM channel or a
different audio connection method.
TIP! If you regularly drive from one location to another, such as your daily commute, you
may need to use different FM channels along your route for best performance. If this is the
case, we recommend saving the best FM channels as presets on your FM radio and Onyx
EZR. Then you simply select and match the best channel for the area you are in.
TIP! It will be much more difficult to find available FM channels in large cities than in most
suburban or rural locations. A direct audio connection using the Aux In Cable, Cassette
Adapter, or professional installation is your best solution if you drive in or near large
metropolitan areas.
NOTE! The SiriusXM FM Channel Finder relies on data from the Federal Communications
Commission. The data may not reflect the latest stations in your area. In addition, local
geography and weather conditions can impact reception, so your results may be different
from the list.
NOTE! The performance of FM radios are different, based on manufacturer and vehicle
style. Some may not work well with the type of FM transmitter used by Onyx EZR. This is
why we recommend a direct audio connection using the Aux In Cable or Cassette Adapter
if they can be used in your vehicle. Professional installation can also resolve almost any
performance issue.
Set and Select an FM Channel
Onyx EZR allows you to easily store (i.e., preset) up to 5 different FM channels. At any time, you can
select any one of these 5 FM presets to hear SiriusXM through your existing vehicle radio. Having a
choice of 5 FM presets also makes it easy to switch to the appropriate FM channel as you travel from
one area to another. Each FM preset is stored in its own storage location. You can easily add or edit
the FM preset in any one of the 5 storage locations.
IMPORTANT! Onyx EZR and the vehicle’s FM radio need to be tuned to the same FM
channel in order to hear the audio.
TIP! The FM 1 storage location is preset with FM channel 97.9.
To set and select an FM preset:

Troubleshooting
Onyx EZR User Guide
Onyx EZR has been designed and built to be trouble-free but if you experience a problem, try this:
• Check that all connections are firm and secure.
• Make sure the vehicle power socket is clean and free of corrosion.
• Make sure you have connected Onyx EZR as described in this User Guide. Verify that the
PowerConnect Power Adapter is plugged into the vehicle’s cigarette lighter or power adapter
socket, and that the LED on the PowerConnect Power Adapter is lit (on). If not, your vehicle
may need to be running to provide power to the socket.
If you see this on the screen:
Try this:
Acquiring Signal
• Make sure that the vehicle is outdoors with a clear view of the
sky.
• Make sure the Magnetic Mount Antenna is mounted outside of
the vehicle.
• Move the antenna away from any obstructed area. For example,
if you are parked in an underground garage, you should receive a
signal after leaving the garage.
Check Antenna Connection
• Make sure that the antenna cable is firmly and securely plugged
into the PowerConnect Vehicle Dock. Make sure the cable is not
bent or broken.
• Turn Onyx EZR Off, then On, to reset this message.
• If the message persists, most likely the Magnetic Mount Antenna
cable has been damaged. Replace the antenna.
Channel Off Air
• The channel you’ve selected is not currently
broadcasting. Tune to another channel.
Loading
• Your Onyx EZR is acquiring audio or program information This
message usually goes away in a few seconds.
Updating
• Your Onyx EZR is updating with the latest encryption code. Wait
until the update is done.
• You may be trying to tune to a channel that is blocked or
unavailable. Tune to another channel.

• Ensure that you have subscribed to the service by following the
steps in “Activation” on page 24.
• Go to www.siriusxm.com/refresh and follow the directions to
refresh your Radio.
• Call 1-866-635-2349 for further assistance.
Audio sounds too soft
• Raise the volume of your stereo system or increase the audio
level of your Onyx EZR until the sound quality improves. Refer to
“Audio Level” on page 45.
49
Troubleshooting
Onyx EZR User Guide
If this happens:
Try this:
Audio fades or has static when
listening
• Check all cables for a firm and secure connection.
• If you are using PowerConnect to listen via your vehicle’s FM
radio, and the problem persists, it most likely is interference from
another commercial or broadcast FM station. You will need to
find an unused or available FM channel in your area. Refer to
“Find Available FM Channels in Your Area” on page 38.
• If you are using PowerConnect, and you cannot solve the audio
problem, try connecting the audio using the Aux In Cable or a
Cassette Adapter. (Refer to page 20 and page 21.) If you
cannot use those solutions, consider using an FM Direct Adapter.
(Refer to page 23.)
No audio when using
PowerConnect or FMDA
• Check that your Onyx EZR and your vehicle’s FM radio are tuned
to the same FM channel.
• For PowerConnect, ensure you are using the PowerConnect
Vehicle Dock and PowerConnect Power Adapter.
• If you are using the Vehicle Dock that came with the Universal
Xpress Car Kit, ensure that the FM Transmitter in Onyx EZR is
turned On.
No song title or artist name is
displayed
• The information may not be available or updates may be in
progress.
Traffic and Weather channels
sound different from other
channels
• These channels use a different audio technology than other
channels so they often sound different from other channels.
