Aux In

If your vehicle's stereo system has an auxiliary input (Aux In) connection or jack, the Aux In Cable solution provides the best audio quality. This connection or jack is usually denoted as AUX or AUX IN, or LINE IN on your vehicle's stereo system. The Aux In Cable directly connects the audio from the Radio to the vehicle's stereo system.

The location of the AUX or AUX IN, or LINE IN jack varies by vehicle, these are some possible locations:

  • Front panel of the vehicle stereo system
  • Anywhere on the front dash panel
  • Inside the glove compartment
  • Inside the center console that is between the front seats
  • On the back panel of the center console that is between the front seats
  • On the back of the radio/stereo system

Install The Aux In Cable In Your Vehicle

1

Your Radio with Vehicle Kit includes an Aux In Cable in the product package. If you don't have an Aux In Cable, you can purchase one from your favorite SiriusXM retailer or directly from SiriusXM. The cable needs to have a 3.5 mm (1/8 inch) male stereo plug on each end.

Note: Very rarely, the auxiliary input connection in some vehicle models may require an audio cable with RCA left and right connectors to connect to it. In this case, the cable needs to have a 3.5 mm male stereo plug on one end (to connect to the Vehicle Dock, and RCA left and right audio plugs on the other end. This cable can purchased from your favorite SiriusXM retailer or directly from SiriusXM.

When you plug the Aux In Cable into the Vehicle Dock, the FM transmitter will automatically be turned off. If you had previously selected to disable AUX Detect in your Radio (not likely), you'll need to enable AUX Detect again. Consult the User Guide for you radio for instructions on how to enable AUX Detect.

Turn on your vehicle's stereo system and set it to play from the auxiliary input source. You should hear the XM audio playing through your vehicle's speakers.
