Symptom Solution
There is static or loss
of clarity in the SIRIUS
radio’s audio signal
If you are using your SIRIUS radio’s FM transmitter to wirelessly
transmit the audio from your SIRIUS radio to your vehicle’s FM
radio, the FM channel you selected is most likely being used by
a local broadcaster, which is interfering with the performance of
your SIRIUS radio. Turn off your SIRIUS radio and tune through
the FM channels on your vehicle radio to locate an FM channel
(between 88.1 and 107.9 MHz) that is not broadcasting in your
area. Once you have located an FM channel that is not broadcast-
ing in your area, save it as a preset on your vehicle radio. This will
be your SIRIUS preset. Turn on your SIRIUS radio and locate its
FM Frequency adjustments (under “FM Transmitter Options” in
Settings or Menu). Set the FM frequency on your SIRIUS radio to
match the frequency of the SIRIUS preset on your vehicle radio.
Note: To find the best FM frequency with the lowest interference
in your home or travel cities, you can also go to http://www.sirius.
com and use the My SIRIUS Frequency Finder and search for a
suggested FM frequency based on zip code.
If you are connecting your SIRIUS radio directly to your vehicle’s
audio system using an “AUX IN” or “LINE IN” input, the cable
may not be properly connected. Make sure the cable is properly
connected, both to the “AUX IN” or LINE IN” connector on your
vehicle’s audio system and to the “LINE OUT” connector on your
SIRIUS radio.
