If you’re looking to disable or mute the SiriusXM radio in your car, you’ve come to the right place! Whether you’re looking to save on subscription fees, reduce distractions, or just prefer the sound of silence, there are several ways to turn off SiriusXM depending on your vehicle’s make and model. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you out.
Step 1: Locate the SiriusXM Controls
First, check your car’s dashboard or infotainment system. Most cars have a dedicated button for SiriusXM, often labeled ‘Sirius’ or ‘XM’.
Step 2: Using the Radio Controls
Press the On/Off Button - If your SiriusXM radio has a power button, simply pressing it should turn off the radio.
Select a Different Source - You can often turn off SiriusXM by switching to another audio source. Look for options like AM/FM, Bluetooth, or AUX.
Volume Control - If you just want to mute the radio quickly, turning down the volume completely can be a quick fix.
Step 3: Adjusting Settings in the Infotainment System
Some vehicles allow you to adjust settings for SiriusXM through the main display:
Go to the audio settings menu, and look for an option related to SiriusXM.
You may find an option to ‘Disable’ or ‘Turn Off’ SiriusXM from there.
Step 4: Check Your Owner’s Manual
If the above steps didn’t work, your owner’s manual is a great resource. It will provide specific instructions based on your vehicle’s model.
