Activate the FM signal transmitter and preset
the frequency (see “4 FM Transmitter Options”
on page 24 of KT-SR2000 Instructions or
“2 FM Transmitter” on page 27 of KT-SR3000
Instructions).
• It is recommended to preset the same frequency
into your car stereo as you have selected so you
can easily tune in to the frequency.
Note: You can also connect a cassette adapter or
an audio cord (both not supplied) to the AUDIO
jack to send the signals to your car stereo.
An optional hard-wired FM transmitter—FM
Switching Box Assembly (Parts No. 112C3159) is
available. By connecting this Assembly between
the FM OUT terminal of the cradle and the
antenna input terminal of your car stereo, you can
obtain stable and reliable transmission/reception.
• If your JVC PnP has been properly connected
and the antenna is receiving the SIRIUS signal,
you will hear audio.
• If your JVC PnP has not been properly
connected, “Antenna Error” will appear on the
display of your JVC PnP.
Check the connections and the antenna location.
– Make sure your car is not in a garage, or
somewhere the satellite signal could be
blocked.
