Cassette Adaptor
For vehicles with a built-in cassette player. Due to its superior audio quality, this configuration is recommended over the wired or wireless FM modulator configurations if a
cassette slot is available in the vehicle.
Direct Connect
The Delphi FM Direct Adaptor (SA10112) (sold separately) can provide audio input through the vehicle’s antenna lead. (Some vehicles may require special antenna lead adaptors.)
Wireless FM Modulator |

|
For the ultimate ease of installation, SKYFi2 has a built-in wireless FM modulator that allows you to hear XM programming on any nearby FM radio. This FM modulator is turned on whenever the cassette adaptor or any other audio cable is unplugged from the SKYFi2 Cradle. See the SKYFi2 Satellite Radio Receiver User Guide for more details.

SKYFi2 Installation |
Because every vehicle is different, these instructions are provided as a general guideline only. If you need help, consult a professional installer.
1.Decide which method (cassette adaptor, wireless FM modulator, or direct connect) is most appropriate for your vehicle and where you live.
2.Verify the system is working by completing a test. Before installing the system, connect the XM Antenna, 12V power adaptor, and audio connector or cassette adaptor (if used) to the SKYFi2 Vehicle Adaptor cradle with the SKYFi2 Receiver
inserted. Plug the 12V power adaptor into the cigarette lighter and place the XM Antenna on the roof of your vehicle. Make sure you are outdoors and not surrounded by tall buildings or trees. Turn on both your vehicle’s radio and SKYFi2 Receiver. Tune the SKYFi2 Receiver to XM channel 1. You should be able to hear the XM Preview channel. If not, check all connections.
Note: If using the wireless FM modulator or the Delphi FM Direct Adaptor, set the SKYFi2 Receiver and the FM radio to the same frequency. See the SKYFi2 User Guide section on “Listening to XM Using Any FM Radio.”
Warning: Do not install the mount where it or SKYFi2 could block your vision or usage of controls, or interfere with any safety devices such as airbags. Failure to correctly place SKYFi2 could result in injury to you or others if the unit becomes detached during an accident and/or obstructs the deployment of an airbag.
