3 |
Receiver, you must have a Vehicle Adaptor Kit (SA10102), Home Adaptor Kit (SA10103), or Marine Adaptor Kit (SA10046), or Delphi portable audio system (each sold separately). We do not recommend using the old SKYFi Vehicle Adaptor Kit (SA10002) with the SKYFi2 Receiver since the SA10102 has been designed to maximize the performance of SKYFi2.
Caution: Your SKYFi2 must be used with the enclosed connecting devices or other approved accessories to ensure maximum performance. Do not modify or alter wires or connections in any way. Shortening wires or connections may prevent proper functioning of the electrical circuit, which may damage your receiver and will void your warranty.
