5 You’ll first need to find an available FM channel . An available FM

channel is one that’s not being used by an FM radio station in your
area . When you tune your FM radio to an available channel, you should
only hear static or silence – not talk or music . To find an available FM
channel:

• Manually tune through your local FM channels on your vehicle’s FM

radio . Locate and create a list of channels that aren’t being used by any
FM radio station . Write down the list . Once you have created your list
of available FM channels, you will need to find the one that provides the
best match for onyX .

TIP! You’ll need to use the ‘Manual’ tune function on your vehicle’s FM radio to
tune through every FM channel one-by-one . Turn on your vehicle’s FM radio . Start
at 88 .1 and use the ‘Manual’ tune function on your vehicle’s FM radio to tune
through each FM channel one-by-one (88 .1 followed by 88 .3 etc .) to locate
channels that aren’t being used by a local FM radio station . Write down each FM
channel that has only static or silence on it, until you reach 107 .9 .

6 Ensure onyX is tuned to channel 1 . Upon power up, onyX should tune to

channel 1 by default, when it’s not yet activated . If it’s not on channel 1,
refer to “Listening to Satellite Radio” on page 55 to learn about how to
tune a channel .

7 Pick the first FM channel on your list from step 5 . Turn on your vehicle’s

FM radio (if you have not already done so) and tune it to this FM channel .

NOTE! If you are using the Vehicle Dock from the Universal Xpress Car Kit
instead of the PowerConnect Vehicle Dock which came with your onyX, you
will have to disable AUX Detect . Refer to “Using the
Vehicle Dock From the Universal Xpress Car Kit” on
page 96 , and complete the additional instructions
before continuing with the next step .

8 Set your onyX to transmit on the same FM

channel that you have selected in step 7:

i . Press menu .
ii . Press

to scroll to and highlight FM Settings and press the

Select button .

iii . FM Channels will be highlighted . If it is not highlighted, turn on

the FM transmitter by highlighting FM transmitter and pressing
Select .

iv . Once the FM Transmitter is On, select FM Channels and press

to scroll to and highlight the storage location FM2 and

press the Select button .

v . Tune to the available FM channel you found in step 7 . Press

and

to tune in steps of .2, i .e ., 99 .3 to 99 .5 . Press

and
