Receiving XM Satellite Radio
Service
If your XM Satellite Radio service
has expired or you purchased your
vehicle from a previous owner, you
can listen to a sampling of the
broadcasts available on XM Satellite
Radio. With the ignition switch in the
ACCESSORY (I) or the ON (II)
position, press the button. A
variety of music types and styles will
play.
If you decide to purchase XM
satellite radio service, contact XM
Radio at www.xmradio.com , or at
1-800-852-9696. In Canada, contact
www.xmradio.ca , or call 1-877-438-
9677. You will need to give them
your radio I.D. number and your
credit card number. To get your
radio I.D. number, press and release
the side of the TUNE bar until
''0'' appears in the display. Your I.D.
will appear in the display.
After you've registered with XM
Radio, keep your audio system in the
XM Satellite Radio mode while you
wait for activation. This should take
about 30 minutes.
While waiting for activation, make
sure your vehicle remains in an open
area with good reception. Once your
audio system is activated, CAT
(category) or CH (channel) will
appear in the center display, and
you'll be able to listen to XM Radio
broadcasts. XM Radio will continue
to send an activation signal to your
vehicle for at least 12 hours from the
activation request. If the service has
not been activated after 36 hours,
contact XM Radio.
