Delphi MyFi™ XM Satellite Radio Receiver - A User's Guide Model Sa10113 A Brief History Ever since XM Satellite Radio signed up its first subscriber in 2001, we've been working constantly to create the best satellite radio receiver. We imagined a radio that works not only in a vehicle, a home, or an office, but something you can take with you virtually anywhere you go. Now we have it: introducing MyFi, the world's first truly portable satellite radio receiver.

Using MyFi at Home Turn off your MyFi and your audio system. Connect your MyFi to your audio system in either way illustrated below. If you use the home stand and connect it to a stereo, you must plug in the AC adaptor and home antenna. Your MyFi's audio output will not work if these are not connected. If you attach your MyFi to powered speakers, adjust the audio level using the speakers' volume control. TIP: If you hear nothing, try adjusting the volume controls located on the MyFi.
Using MyFi In Your Vehicle Because every vehicle is different, we can only provide some general guidelines. If you need help, consult a professional installer. 1. Decide which method (cassette adaptor, wireless FM transmitter, or wired connection) is best for your vehicle and location. 2. Always do a trial run before installing anything permanently. Temporarily connect all power, audio, and antenna lines.
(optional accessory) For a neat, fully integrated installation, use the DELPHI FM DIRECT ADAPTOR (SA10112, sold separately). We recommend that you consult a professional installer. The WIRELESS FM TRANSMITTER is the easiest and quickest way to hear XM programming in your vehicle. Simply set your FM radio and your MyFi to the same frequency.
Placing the antenna Your XM antenna should be mounted on the vehicle's metallic roof, at least 6" from any window or sunroof. It can be placed in the front, middle, or rear of the roof. Avoid crimping, twisting, or chafing the XM antenna cable. Try to use existing holes, body grommets, and other wiring channels. If the car is a hard- or soft-top convertible, you may mount the antenna on the metal trunk lid. It should be at least 4" from the rear window.
FLUSH MOUNT: Attach the included Velcro® pads or adhesive pad to the back of your MyFi's vehicle cradle. Stick the vehicle cradle onto a flat surface in your vehicle, preparing the surface as described below. Do not install the mount on a leather surface. Doing so could permanently damage the surface. VENT MOUNT: Assemble the vent mount as shown, if not already assembled. Find a horizontal air vent that is strong enough to hold the weight of your MyFi and its cradle. Clip the vent mount into the vent.
Using MyFi On the Go Your MyFi contains a built-in antenna that works best when your MyFi receiver is upright. Use the belt clip to hold your MyFi in the proper position; laying your MyFi down flat may weaken reception. TIP: If you carry your MyFi in a bag or use it while exercising, you can lock the buttons and dial and prevent something from accidentally pressing the buttons. Press and hold the “mute/pause/lock” button until you see the lock indicator in the display.
Signal Reception Guidelines Your MyFi's antenna should have an unobstructed view of the XM satellites in the southern sky. In large cities, XM also has a network of ground repeaters to help increase the signal coverage.
Other Things You Should Know Care You should be able to take your MyFi along with you during most of your daily activities. Still, you should remember: " Your MyFi is not waterproof. Avoid splashing it with liquids and never submerge it underwater. " Take your MyFi with you when you leave your vehicle, especially on a hot day. Not only can you continue to enjoy XM programming, but you'll also prolong the life of your MyFi's case, display, and battery.
