Decide on one of the following in-box audio connection options. You can also refer to “Connect the Audio” in
the Onyx EZR User Guide (with Vehicle Kit) 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 at the rear of the
Power Connect 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 XM channel 1 through your vehicle’s stereo system.
D. Go back to Step 1 “Find a Location for Onyx EZR and Mount It” on the opposite side and finish
installing the Dash or Vent Mount. Then the installation is complete.
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 of Onyx EZR. Power Connect plays the XM audio through
your vehicle’s FM radio.

your zip code. The Channel Finder will suggest a list of available FM channels in your area. For

channel.

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 satisfied with the audio quality, go back to Step 1 “Find a Location for Onyx EZR and Mount
It” on the opposite side and finish installing the Dash or Vent Mount. Then the installation is complete.
TIP! You may find an FM channel with static or silence on your vehicle’s FM radio that does not work with your
Onyx EZR. 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.
