Q: I tried pairing and connecting the SiriusXM Roady BT to my vehicle’s headunit without success. Is there anything
else I could try?
A: If the SiriusXM Roady BT fails to pair with your vehicle’s headunit after multiple attempts, try pairing with the
SiriusXM Roady BT set to the “Alternate” Bluetooth Device Class setting. Press the Menu button, select Audio Settings,
select Bluetooth settings. Scroll down to Bluetooth Device Class and press the select button to change to “Alternate”.

Song Title, Artist Name, and other information. This is not a malfunction of your SiriusXM Roady BT.
Q: I cannot Play/Pause the SiriusXM audio on the vehicle headunit, is something wrong?
A: Some vehicle headunits might not support Play/Pause function. This is not a malfunction of your SiriusXM Roady BT.
Bluetooth Reconnection FAQs
Q: When I start up my vehicle the vehicle headunit does not automatically select my SiriusXM Roady BT as the audio
source, what should I do to fix this?
A: Some vehicle headunits will default to either the OEM built-in SiriusXM or FM as the audio source. This happens
because the headunit cannot find the previously connected Bluetooth device within few seconds as Roady BT is
powering up. If this happens you will need to manually change the audio source for the vehicle headunit to the
Bluetooth audio source.
Q: I assigned the vehicle’s headunit cellphone profile to my cellphone and the SiriusXM Roady BT to the media
streaming profile. But when I turn the vehicle off and then start it up again, both the cellphone and media streaming
profiles are assigned to my cellphone. How can I stop this from happening?
A: After a vehicle ignition off and on, some vehicle headunits may connect both the cellphone and media streaming
profiles to the cellphone for both profiles. If this happens you will need to connect the SiriusXM Roady BT to the media
streaming profile to hear the SiriusXM audio.
If you are using an Android cellphone and the SiriusXM Roady BT simultaneously, you can change the Bluetooth settings
in your Android phone for a hands-free only connection. This will keep the vehicle’s headunit from reassigning the media
streaming profile to the cellphone.
Q: I turned my SiriusXM Roady BT off and then turned it on while my vehicle was running. When my SiriusXM Roady
BT was on again, it did not connect to the vehicle’s headunit, what should I do?
A: Some vehicle headunits will not automatically reconnect Bluetooth if the SiriusXM Roady BT is turned off and on again
while the vehicle is running. You will have to manually initiate the Bluetooth connection in order to hear the SiriusXM
audio. Some Mercedes and Toyota vehicle headunits may exhibit this behavior.
