2Manually 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 the one that provides the best match for Starmate 5..

Tune the Starmate 5 to a favorite SIRIUS channel (or to channel 184, if it’s not yet activated).. Pick the first FM channel on your list and tune the FM radio to that channel.. Then tune the Starmate 5 to the same FM channel.. (Refer to “Set and Select an FM Channel” on page 93..) You should hear the SIRIUS 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 SIRIUS clearly..
