Optimizing XM Antenna Signal
1. With the SKYFi cradle facing front, press the
Power button on the SKYFi Receiver or Delphi
CD Audio System remote.
2. Press the Menu button on the receiver or
remote.
3. Turn the scroll wheel on the SKYFi Receiver or
use the category keys on the remote until
“Antenna Aiming” is highlighted on the receiver
display.
4. With “Antenna Aiming” still highlighted, press
the Enter button on the SKYFi Receiver or
remote. The display will show the strength of
the satellite and/or terrestrial signals. The signal
strength is indicated by the number of filled
bars (Figure 18).
Antenna Mounting/Installation
Mounting the Antenna on the Delphi CD Audio
System
When outdoors with a clear view of the southern
sky or in an area of XM repeater coverage, or when
receiving a strong signal indoors, you can mount
the XM antenna directly on the back of the Delphi
CD Audio System.
1. Wind the antenna cable around the tab on the
back of the lower tube, leaving several inches of
cable free.
2. Fold the antenna down flat against its base.
3. Position the antenna so that the XM logo is
upside down. Then place the antenna base flush
against the back of the Delphi CD Audio System
so that the four pegs line up with the four slots
in the antenna base. Slide the antenna down
approximately 3/8 inch until the antenna is
securely docked. (See Figure19).

4. Position the antenna by pivoting the half with
the XM logo away from the back of the Delphi
CD Audio System. Then turn the entire system
until you get the strongest signal.
5. Use the “Antenna Aiming” screen (as described
under Optimizing XM Antenna Signal) to optimize
the antenna tilt angle and position.

Indoor Installation on a Flat Surface
To aim your antenna at the satellite:
1. Set antenna flat against its base on a flat
(horizontal) surface.
2. Turn the base of the antenna so that the XM
logo faces to the south.
3. Use the “Antenna Aiming” screen to optimize
the antenna tilt angle and position.
4. If necessary, experiment with different locations
near a south-facing window or outside.
