WARNING! DO NOT attempt to install Onyx EZ while driving. Park your
vehicle in a safe location before beginning installation.
Step 1: Choose a Location for Your Radio
When installing Onyx EZ in your vehicle, choose a location where it will
not block your vision, interfere with the controls, or obstruct the air bag.
The location should be easily accessible and provide good visibility of the
display, and should not be located where it will be in direct sunlight, which
will affect the visibility of the display screen.
Several examples of Onyx EZ mounted in a vehicle are shown: A is the on
dash method using the Dash Mount, and B is the vent clip method using the
Vent Mount.

Step 2: Install the Dash or Vent Mount
Follow the instructions on the next several pages for the mounting method
you have selected.
NOTE! The PowerConnect Vehicle Dock included with Onyx EZ is compatible
with the T-slot style Dash and Vent Mounts. If you have an existing Dash Mount
or Vent Mount in your vehicle, you can continue to use it with this dock, and
skip this step.
Installing the Dash Mount:
CAUTION! The adhesive used on the Dash Mount may be
difficult to remove. Do not install this mount on leather
surfaces (contact your automobile dealership if you are
unsure about your dash surface), and make sure the air
temperature is at least 60°F (15°C) during installation. If it’s
not at least 60°F, turn on the heater in your vehicle to bring
the temperature up to 60°F.
1. Locate a flat surface for the Dash Mount. Make sure there is ample
room for the PowerConnect Vehicle Dock and Onyx EZ Radio when
installed.
2. Set the orientation of the Dash Mount before adhering it. Loosen the
knob and adjust the adhesive foot for the location you selected in
“Step 1: Choose a Location for
Your Radio” on page 10.
•Option 1 & Option 3
should be oriented as I.
•Option 2 should be oriented
as II.
3. The dock mounting plate can
12
13
be tilted in different directions. Adjust as necessary for your particular
vehicle. When the orientation is correct, tighten the knob.
4. Attach the Dash Mount to the PowerConnect
Vehicle Dock using the 4 provided screws.
5. Before you attach the Dash Mount to the
dash, skip ahead and finish the remainder of
the vehicle installation so that the cables are
attached to the dock.
6. Once the cables have been attached to the
dock, clean the mounting surface in the vehicle
with the alcohol preparation pad and let it dry
thoroughly.
7. Peel off the adhesive liner. Position,
press, and hold the Dash Mount in
place for 30 seconds.
IMPORTANT!
Allow the Dash Mount
adhesive to cure (dry) for a minimum of
2-4 hours before using the mount. The
best adhesion occurs after 24 hours.
TIP! To remove the Dash Mount, carefully lift the adhesive pad with your
fingers or a spoon. Warming the pad with a hair dryer for several minutes will
help soften the adhesive.

Installing the Vent Mount:
IMPORTANT! To make the cable connections easier, wait until after you have
connected all the cables to the dock before you attach the Vent Mount to a
vent.
1. Locate a vent with horizontal louvers sturdy
enough to hold your PowerConnect Vehicle
Dock and Onyx EZ Radio.
2. If the vent louvers in your vehicle are
recessed, you may need to use the longer
vent clamps with the Vent Mount. If so,
remove the shorter vent clamps and install
the longer ones into the Vent Mount. Be
sure to observe the orientation of the vent
clamps as shown.

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 EZ.
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 EZ 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.

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 EZ.
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 EZ is tuned to channel 1, the XM Preview channel. Upon
power up, Onyx EZ should tune to channel 1 by default, when it’s not yet
activated. If it’s not on channel 1, refer to “Listening to Satellite Radio” on
page 48 to learn about how to tune a channel.
7. Pick the first FM channel on your list from step 5. Turn on your vehicle’s
FM radio (if you have not already done so) and tune it to this FM channel.
NOTE! If you are using the Vehicle Dock from the Universal Xpress Car Kit
instead of the PowerConnect Vehicle Dock which came with your Onyx EZ,
you will have to disable AUX Detect. Refer to “Using the Vehicle Dock From
the Universal Xpress Car Kit” on page 76, and complete the additional

of FM channels until you find one with which you are satisfied. Each time,
you will need to tune your vehicle’s FM radio to the FM channel and then
set your Onyx EZ to transmit on the same FM channel (steps 7 & 8).
If the signal reception is good, showing at least two bars in the lower left
corner of the display, but there is no XM audio, verify that both Onyx EZ
and your vehicle’s FM radio are tuned to the same FM channel (steps 7 &
8). Also ensure the chosen FM channel is a suitable one to use in your area
(step 5). Verify that nothing is plugged into the AUDIO connector on the
PowerConnect Vehicle Dock. Refer to “Troubleshooting” on page 79 for
additional help.
Option 4: FM Direct Adapter (FMDA) Installation
The FMDA needs to be installed by a professional installer. Professional
installation can help improve your Radio’s reception and significantly

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 EZ 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
EZ 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 EZ 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 EZ to the
same FM channel. (Refer to “Set and Select an FM Channel” on page
63.) 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.
Configuring Your Onyx EZ
62
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 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 EZ.
Tune Onyx EZ 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 EZ to the same FM channel. (Refer to “Set
and Select an FM Channel” on page 63.) 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 EZ. 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 EZ. 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
Configuring Your Onyx EZ
63
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 EZ. 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 EZ 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 EZ 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.
