1 This Audio System was designed to work with a wide range of XM receivers.

You may need to adjust the audio “Line Out Level” in the menu options of your receiver to achieve optimal performance from this sound system. Please see your XM receiver user guide for additional information on this adjustment.

2 Use the volume buttons on the Sound System or remote control to adjust the sound level.

3 To control both your XM radio and Sound System use the remote that is included with your sound system. (see page 12)

If desired, plug in your headphones to the phones jack. Use the volume buttons on the

Compact Sound System to control the headphones. The Sound System’s speakers are muted when the headphones are in use.

Your Sound System has an aux in jack for connecting CD or MP3 players using a mini audio cable (sold separately). Once you have a device plugged in press the aux button to switch from XM mode to aux mode. The LED on the button will be on when in aux mode.

Taking Care of Your Sound System

Placement

Do not place the Sound System or XM radio near heat sources or in direct sunlight.

Do not place the Sound System on an inclined or unstable surface, in areas of excessive dust, or areas prone to mechanical shock. Do not block the speakers or ventilation ports.

Because the speakers contain powerful magnets, keep credit cards, mechanical watches, and other devices that might be affected away from the Sound System.

Cleaning

DANGER! Unplug the AC power adapter during the cleaning to avoid any electrical shock hazard.

Clean the hard surfaces of the Sound System with a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution.

Clean the soft surfaces of the speakers with a dry lint brush.

Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent, such as alcohol or benzene.

If this happens Try this

My XM radio is not receiving a signal.

My XM radio will not turn on.

I only receive XM channels 0 and 1.

The radio and Sound System are on and receiving a signal but I can’t hear anything.

I hear noise or interference.

My remote doesn’t work.

The minimum volume level is too loud or the maximum volume is too quiet.

Use the “antenna aiming” feature on the XM radio and move the antenna to another location.

Check whether the power cord is plugged into the wall.

If applicable, make sure Auto-ON is enabled.

Make sure your radio is activated. Contact XM at www.xmradio.com or 1-800-XM-RADIO.

Remove the radio from the Sound System and re-insert it, then turn the power on.

Unplug any headphones.

Check the volume control.

Make sure mute is not set on the remote if used.

Make sure aux mode is off.

Move away from any cordless telephones or electrical appliances or other devices that may cause interference.

Make sure that the IR sensors are not obstructed.

It may be time to replace the battery in the remote.

Adjust the line out level on your XM Radio.
