Vehicle Installation
Step 1: Mount the XM Antenna
1 Choose the best location for your XM antenna considering
your own personal situation. Pay particular attention to any
accessories that you may have like luggage racks and how
frequently you may use them.
The XM antenna contains a strong magnet which will stick to any metal parts of your
vehicle.
We recommend mounting the antenna just above either the front windshield or the
back window as shown.
Magnet
If you placed the XM antenna on the front
of the vehicle, route the cable across the
top of the windshield. Gently pry up the
rubber weather seal and tuck the cable
underneath. Follow the weather seal
down the side of the windshield to the
door jam. Tuck the cable into the door
jam and then under the oormat to the
car cradle.
If you placed the XM antenna on the rear
of the vehicle, route the cable under the
weather seal of the rear window. Tuck
the antenna cable around and down the
window to the lowest point, just above the
trunk. Then, route the cable from the rear
window molding into the weather stripping around the trunk opening. Run the
cable into the trunk and then into the rear
passenger compartment. Route the cable
through the main compartment by tucking it under the door jam trim or under the
carpet and up to the radio.
TIP! Always be careful to include enough slack in your cable to accommodate
open doors or trunk lids. Use things typically found around the home, like
electrical tape, to secure cables in areas so that hinges do not pinch the cable
with the door. Hide any excess cable in the trim.

Step 2: Install the vent or swivel mount
You can use either the vent mount or the swivel mount for your
XpressRC depending on your particular situation.
Installing the vent mount
1 Locate a vent with horizontal slats sturdy enough
to hold your XM cradle and radio.
2 Adjust the clamps to t your vent.
3 Snap the mount onto the vent.
To remove, push the mount into the vent, then lift up.

for the XM cradle and radio when installed.
2 Clean the surface with the preparation kit and let it dry thoroughly.
3 Peel o the adhesive liner. Position, press, and hold the swivel mount
in place for 30 seconds.
IMPORTANT: Let the adhesive cure for 24 hours before attaching the XM
cradle and radio to the mount.
4 Turn the swivel to accommodate the XM cradle and radio. Adjust the tension via
the center screw.
You can adjust this screw
to adjust the tension of the
mount with a screwdriver.
To remove, carefully lift the adhesive pad with your ngers or a spoon. Warming
the pad with a hair dryer for several minutes will help soften the adhesive.
You can reinstall the swivel mount using the extra adhesive pad.

Step 3: Connect your XpressRC
1 Plug the antenna into ANT IN on the cradle.
2 Plug the power adapter into DC IN on the cradle.
3 Plug the audio adapter into AUDIO OUT on the cradle.
• Use the Cassette Adapter if your vehicle has a built-in cassette player.
• Use a mini audio cable (sold separately) if your vehicle has
an audio input jack.
4 Insert the cradle into the mount.
5 Insert your XpressRC into the cradle.
NOTE: If your car does not contain a cassette player or an audio input, you will need to
use either the XM SureConnect (sold separately) or the FM Direct adapter (sold separately).
XM SureConnect (sold separately): You can listen to your XpressRC through your car
•
stereo by using XpressRC’s built-in FM modulator and the XM SureConnect. Simply nd
an unused FM frequency on the stereo and set your XpressRC to transmit on that same
frequency. Refer to Set the FM frequency page in your user guide for more information.
FM Direct Adapter (sold separately): This option directly connects the XpressRC to your
•
car’s audio system and antenna. A professional installation is recommended if you choose
to use this method. Professional installation can help improve your radio’s reception and
signicantly reduce the visibility of wires. To learn more, check with the retailer where
you bought your radio or go to xmradio.com/shop
