Wireless FM Transmitter or Wired FM Antenna Adapter
If you use the built-in wireless FM transmitter, no additional wired audio connection is necessary. To use
the wired FM antenna adapter, you will need to wire it into your vehicle’s FM antenna connection rst, then
complete these steps. Either way, you must enable and select the FM transmitter frequency to hear audio
through your vehicle’s FM radio. Remember, you may try several frequencies for the best result.
1
Enable the FM transmitter and select FM frequency preset.
Settings System Settings
Once you have selected an FM preset, tune your FM radio to that same station. You should hear audio playback clearly.
If that frequency is not playing music clearly, select another preset by locating a frequency on your radio that is only
static and save that as a preset. This will o er the clearest path for the Drive + Play 2 system’s audio playback.
FM Transmitter
Line-Output Audio Connections
To use the Line-Out audio connection, the FM transmitter must rst be disabled using the steps shown.
Following that, you will need to connect into your head unit’s AUX input. Many vehicles may require a
third-party adapter (not included) to provide this type of connection.
