Features

Overview: The XM Dock & Play PowerConnect Second Vehicle Kit (XADV2) allows you to install your XM or SiriusXM Satellite Radio Dock & Play Tuner (220XDNX1V1 or 220EDGE, both sold separately) in a second vehicle.

Vehicle Dock: The XM Dock & Play PowerConnect Vehicle Kit includes a Power/Connect vehicle dock to connect your compatible XM Satellite Radio tuner. The vehicle dock features color-coded connectors to assist you in connecting the cables to the correct connector. The vehicle dock also has a rear-panel wire-guide that can help you organize the cables and wires connected to the dock. The vehicle dock provides three connection options to transfer XM Satellite Radio audio to your vehicle's audio system.

• PowerConnect: The XM Dock & Play PowerConnect Second Vehicle Kit comes supplied with a PowerConnect FM transmitter/cigarette lighter adapter which allows your XM Satellite Radio receiver to wirelessly transmit audio to your vehicle's in-dash headunit over and FM frequency. You can choose from any FM frequency between: 88.1 and 107.9 MHz. You can store up to 5 FM stations so you can quickly access the stations which give you the best audio reception when using the PowerConnect. The PowerConnect FM transmitter/cigarette lighter adapter simply plugs into the power port of the included vehicle dock and the cigarette lighter or 12-volt accessory port of your vehicle.
• Auxiliary: The vehicle dock has a minijack audio output (3.5mm) to connect the unit directly to your in-dash headunit's auxiliary input (if applicable), using the supplied stereo minijack cable. When using the line output jack, you can adjust the level to match your headunit's other sources.
• FM Direct (optional): The FM Direct Adaptor (607FMDA25, sold separately) connects directly in-line with your vehicle's existing AM/FM antenna input (Motorola) and the XADV2 vehicle dock's FM output (2.5mm). This optimizes the signal of the PowerConnect FM transmitter/cigarette lighter adapter's built-in FM modulator to your vehicle's radio, especially in regions with a high density of FM radio stations and few open FM channels.

Magnetic Antenna: The XM Dock & Play PowerConnect Second Vehicle Kit unit comes supplied with a magnetic antenna that is designed to be run outside of the vehicle and placed on the roof of your vehicle. The magnetic antenna will adhere to your vehicle's sheet metal.

Mounting: The mounting location of the XADV2 should be easily accessible for controlling your docked XM receiver and provide good visibility of the unit's display, and should not be located where it will be in direct sunlight, which will affect the visibility of the display screen. The XM Dock & Play Power Connect Second Vehicle Kit comes with two mounting options.

• Self-Adhesive Dash Mount: The XADV2 includes a self-adhesive plastic mount which allows you to place the unit on your vehicle's dash. The self-adhesive dash-mount allows you to swivel and adjust the unit for better visibility.
• Vent Mount: The XADV2 also includes a vent mount bracket, so the unit can be mounted to your air conditioning vent.

Note: When mounting the XADV2 in your vehicle, choose a location where it will not block your vision, interfere with the controls, or obstruct the air bag.
