QUICK START GUIDE

Dock & Play Vehicle Kit

A. Verify the signal reception by looking at the antenna signal strength bars on the screen.

If the Radio is showing at least two vertical bars of antenna signal strength, continue

with step 7. If not, be sure that you have mounted the antenna on the outside of the

vehicle, as shown in step 3, and that the vehicle is parked outdoors with a clear view of

the sky. Move the vehicle away from any obstructed area, for example, if you are parked

in a garage, or parked near a large structure.

B. Refer to your Radio’s User Guide (go to www.siriusxm.com/guides) for instructions on

accessing the Signal Indicator, Signal, or Antenna Aiming screen of your Radio, to see

a visual indication of signal strength.

Self installation instructions and tips are provided for your convenience. It is your

responsibility to determine if you have the knowledge, skills and physical ability

required to properly perform an installation. SiriusXM shall have no liability for

damage or injury resulting from the installation or use of any SiriusXM or third

party products. It is your responsibility to ensure that all products are installed

in adherence with local laws and regulations and in such a manner as to allow

a vehicle to be operated safely and without distraction. SiriusXM product

warranties do not cover the installation, removal or reinstallation of any product.

Decide on one of the following in-box audio connection options. You can also refer to the SiriusXM Dock &

Play Vehicle Kit User Guide SXDV3 for additional audio connection options, such as a cassette adapter or

the FM Direct Adapter (FMDA) (both sold separately). Go to www.siriusxm.com/guides for the User Guide.

Option 1: Best: Use the provided Aux In Cable, if your vehicle’s stereo system has an auxiliary input jack.

A. Plug one end of the cable into the green AUDIO

connector on the side of the PowerConnect

Vehicle Dock and the other end into the auxiliary

input jack on the vehicle’s stereo system.

B. Turn on your vehicle’s stereo system and set

it to play from the auxiliary input source.

C. You should hear the SiriusXM audio through

your vehicle’s stereo system.

D. If you are using the wire guide channel across the back of the Vehicle Dock to organize the wires,

place the wires in the guide and then tighten the 4 screws to securely attach the mount.

TIP! Refer to your vehicle’s owner’s manual to ﬁnd the location of the auxiliary input jack, or consult the

vehicle dealer.

Option 2: Good: Use the PowerConnect feature in your Radio. PowerConnect plays the audio through

your vehicle’s FM radio.

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.

B. Pick the first FM channel on your list. Tune your vehicle’s FM radio to this FM channel. You should

only hear static or silence. If not, try the next FM channel on your list.

C. Set your satellite Radio to transmit on the same FM channel that you have selected on your vehicle’s

FM radio. You may need to turn On the FM Transmitter in your Radio first. Go to www.siriusxm.

com/guides for your Radio’s User Guide (with Vehicle Kit) for instructions. You should now hear the

SiriusXM audio.

D. If you are not satisfied with the audio quality, move to the next FM channel on your list and repeat

the process. Continue until you have found an FM channel with which you are satisfied.

E. If you are using the wire guide channel across the back of the Vehicle Dock to organize the wires,

place the wires in the guide and then tighten the 4 screws to securely attach the mount.

TIP! You may ﬁnd an FM channel with static or silence on your vehicle’s FM radio that does not work with your

satellite Radio. It is possible that some type of inaudible interference is present that prevents reception of the

SiriusXM broadcast. Your only options are to use another FM channel or a different audio connection method.

Connect the Audio

CAUTION: Do not attempt to install, activate, or adjust any of the

setting options described in this Quick Start Guide unless your

vehicle is parked in a safe location.
