Turning on the FM Modulator
With ignition in the accessory position, this FM
modulator is always on in a standby condition.
When you turn on your SKYFi Receiver, the FM
modulator will automatically switch the vehicle
stereo input from your FM antenna to an XM®
Satellite Radio signal.
Changing the Transmitting Frequency
The FM modulator allows you to change the XM
Satellite Radio broadcast signal to an FM
frequency and output the sound to your vehicle
radio via an FM station. You may experience
some interference if a local FM station is broad-
casting at the same frequency. If this occurs,
change your FM modulator frequency using the
switch on the side of the unit. The switch has
three frequency settings: 87.9MHz, 88.1MHz,
and 88.5MHz. Note: Reset the vehicle stereo
frequency to the same value as the FM modula-
tor frequency.
Installation Note: The FM antenna connector
used to connect the FM modulator to the
audio/stereo system may require an additional
adaptor. Some audio/stereo systems have AM
antennas that require an active bias from your
vehicle’s audio/stereo system. If AM reception is
not restored, try a different adaptor that will allow
the active bias to reach the AM antenna.
Professional installation is recommended.
