Using roadyXT in your vehicle
Because every vehicle is different, we can only provide some general
guidelines. If you need help, consult a professional installer.
• Decide which method (cassette adaptor, wired connection, or wireless
FM transmitter) is best for your vehicle and location.
• 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
Placing the antenna
For best reception, place the XM antenna 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.
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.

Warning: Failure to properly install the antenna may result in injury to yourself or to
others if it becomes detached during an accident.

Use the CASSETTE ADAPTOR
if your vehicle’s audio system
has a built-in cassette player.
For a neat, fully integrated instal-
lation, use the DELPHI FM DIRECT
ADAPTOR (model SA10112, sold
separately). The FM Direct
Adaptor must be connected to
your car radio and to the car’s FM
antenna. We recommend that you
consult a professional installer.
The WIRELESS FM TRANSMIT-
TER is the easiest and quickest
way to hear XM programming
in your vehicle. Simply set your
FM radio and your roadyXT to
the same frequency.

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 roadyXT’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.
