Connecting Your SIRIUS Radio to Your Vehicle’s Audio

System

There are two ways to connect your SIRIUS Sportster SP5 to your vehicle’s audio system:
Direct Connection or Wireless Connection. Which one will perform best in your vehicle
depends on your vehicle’s audio system.
For the latest information go to http://www.siriuscanada.ca/en/install/vehicle.aspx.

Direct Wired Audio Connection

If your vehicle’s audio system has an “A

” or “L

i

” jack it is the best-quality audio

connection you can use for your SIRIUS radio. (And if the A

or L

connector is

located somewhere on the front of your vehicle radio or elsewhere in the cabin, this is
also the easiest way to connect your SIRIUS radio.)
1. Purchase an audio cable that matches the connection type of your vehicle’s audio

system and your SIRIUS Vehicle Dock at your local electronics retailer.

• The Vehicle Dock requires a male
