A Brief History

Ever since XM Satellite Radio signed up its first subscriber in 2001, Delphi and XM have been working constantly to create the best satellite radio receiver. We imagined a radio that works not only in a vehicle, a home, or an office, but something you can take with you virtually anywhere you go. Now we have it: introducing MyFi, the world’s first truly portable satellite radio receiver.

With your MyFi, you can:

• listen to live XM programming at home, in your car, and now virtually anywhere outdoors (page 15)

• easily save up to five hours of the most current XM programming for listening at another time or where live signal reception may be limited (page 18)

• program your MyFi to store fresh XM programming at a specific time every day (page 19), and personalize it to suit your lifestyle (page 20)

About Delphi

Delphi is a worldwide leader in mobile electronics, vehicle components, and audio technology. Delphi created the first in-dash car radio in 1936 and continues its strong tradition of innovation in the audio industry. Now Delphi technology has helped make satellite radio a reality, and Delphi continues to expand its in-vehicle and consumer electronics technologies. With its exciting line of satellite radio products, Delphi offers a broad portfolio of products to answer a wide variety of information and entertainment needs—in the vehicle, home, office, or virtually anywhere.

About XM

One big idea can change everything. And XM Satellite Radio is one big idea: Radio to the Power of X®. America’s most popular satellite radio service offers over 130 digital channels of sheer variety: music, sports, talk, comedy, drama, news, traffic and weather, kids programming, and more. All 68 XM music channels are 100 percent commercial-free, and XM’s 21 instant traffic and weather channels provide the most comprehensive, in-depth information on traffic incidents, delays, and road conditions available on radio. These services are available for a low monthly subscription, and additional devices may qualify for a reduced subscription fee through the XM Family Plan.*

*XM subscription required for reception of XM service. Not available in Alaska or Hawaii. Satellite radio reception depends on the ability of the antenna to record/receive a signal. The signal may not be available in buildings or if obstructed (e.g., by mountains, trees, bridges, etc.).

Important! You will need to fully charge your MyFi

battery for at least three hours to have sufficient battery power for portable use.

Connecting to a stereo

Plug the AC adaptor into an outlet. Connect the home antenna and connect the line out to either your home stereo or powered (PC type) speakers.

Receiving the XM signal

Turn your MyFi on by pressing the power button. You should be able to hear channel 1, the XM Preview Channel. If you do not, and the screen displays “NO SIGNAL,” try moving your MyFi’s antenna to another location. Make sure the antenna points south, either outdoors or through a window. If the “NOSIGNAL” message persists, refer to “Aiming the home antenna” (page 28).

Please read the TIP below the illustration for optional setup and activation procedure information.

Connect to stereo

Aim antenna

TIP: Establishing a good signal environment in the home

setup is highly desirable, but this is not the only way you can receive the XM signal. As an option, you can refer to “Using MyFi In Your Vehicle” (page 29) and continue this setup and activation process with your MyFi installed in a vehicle.

Activating Your MyFi

Turn the dial to highlight channel 0, and press the dial in to select it. You should see an 8-character XM Radio ID in the display. (The XM Radio ID should also be on your MyFi’s package and under the battery.) Write the ID here:

The XM Radio ID does not use the letters I, O, S, and F.

Activate your XM Satellite Radio service by contacting XM at http://activate.xmradio.com or by calling

1.800.XM.RADIO (1.800.967.2346). You will need the XM Radio ID and a major credit card.

XM will send a signal from the satellites to activate the full channel lineup. Activation normally takes 10 to 15 minutes, but during peak busy periods, you may need to keep your MyFi on for up to an hour to complete the activation process. When you can access the full channel lineup on your MyFi, you’re done!

Go Ahead!

Rotate the dial to preview a list of channels. When you find one you’re interested in, press the dial in to tune to that channel.
