Make the Connections
You’ll need to access the back of the SiriusXM-Ready headunit so you can plug the
SXV100 Vehicle Tuner into it. This may require you to remove the headunit from the
dashboard. If you are uncomfortable with this step, consult a professional installer.
Be sure to turn OFF the SiriusXM-Ready headunit before connecting the SXV100
Vehicle Tuner. Locate the SiriusXM connector on the headunit and connect the
SXV100. The headunit may have a panel mount type connector, or it may have a
pigtail type connector.
Plug the Satellite Radio antenna
into the SXV100 Vehicle Tuner
(sold separately). The SXV100 is
compatible with all aftermarket XM
antennas.
Secure the Tuner
Secure the SXV100 Vehicle Tuner behind the vehicle headunit location or under
the dash using wire ties (not included).
Thread the wire ties through the moulded brackets on the underside of the Tuner
as shown. Then secure it to a bracket or wiring harness using the wire ties. Avoid
brackets with sharp edges and any moving parts such as gas and brake pedals.
Reinstall the vehicle headunit if it had been removed from the dashboard.
