Once you have found an available FM channel, you’ll need to tune Onyx

Plus and your vehicle’s radio to the same FM channel to receive XM audio

through your vehicle’s radio.

We recommend one of the following methods to ﬁnd an available FM channel:

1. Use the SiriusXM FM Channel Finder

Use the SiriusXM FM Channel Finder at www.siriusxm.com/fmchannel.

Go to the website and enter your zip code. The Channel Finder will

suggest a list of available FM channels in your area. For convenience,

write down or print out the list.

Tune Onyx Plus to a favorite XM channel (or to channel 1, if it’s not

activated). Turn on your vehicle’s FM radio. Pick the first FM channel on

your Channel Finder list and tune the FM radio to that channel. If you

do not hear a local FM station broadcast, then tune Onyx Plus to the

same FM channel. (Refer to “Set and Select an FM Channel” on page

79.) You should hear the XM channel through your vehicle’s radio. If

you are satisfied with the sound quality, you’re done! If this FM channel

doesn’t work well for you, work down the list until you find an FM

channel that allows you to hear XM clearly.

2. Manually tune through your local FM channels

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

radio. 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. Once

you have created your list of available FM channels, you will need to find
