SiriusXM Weather

The weather information provided through this product is
subject to service interruptions and may contain errors,
inaccuracies, or outdated information, and consequently should
not be relied upon exclusively. Always use common sense while
navigating, and check alternate weather information sources
prior to making safety-related decisions. You acknowledge and
agree that you shall be solely responsible for use of the weather
information and all decisions taken with respect to navigating in
weather. Garmin will not be responsible for any consequences
of using SiriusXM weather information.
NOTE: SiriusXM data is not available in all regions.
A Garmin SiriusXM satellite weather receiver and antenna
receives satellite weather data and shows it on various Garmin
devices, including the Navigation chart on a compatible
chartplotter. The weather data for each feature comes from
reputable weather data centers such as the National Weather
Service and the Hydrometeorological Prediction Center. For
more information, go to www.siriusxm.com/sxmmarine.
SiriusXM Equipment and Subscription
Requirements
To use satellite weather, you must have a compatible satellite
weather receiver. To use SiriusXM satellite radio, you must
have a compatible satellite radio receiver. Go to
www.garmin.com for more information. You must also have a
valid subscription to receive satellite weather and radio. For
more information, refer to the instructions for your satellite
weather and radio equipment.
Weather Data Broadcasts
Weather data is broadcast at different intervals for each weather
feature. For example, radar is broadcast at five-minute intervals.
When the Garmin receiver is turned on, or when a different
weather feature is selected, the receiver must receive new data
before it can be shown. You might experience a delay before
weather data or a different feature appears on the chart.
NOTE: Any weather feature can change in appearance if the
source that provides the information changes.
