XM Activation
Activating your XM radio service is easy. You have one of two choices
to activate your service: Online or by Phone.
Online Activation Process
First, please make sure the Xpress XM receiver is working properly by
tuning to the XM Preview channel (#1). If you can hear XM Preview, your
equipment is ready.
NOTE: The antenna must be installed on the outside of your vehicle for
best performance.
Next, make sure you have a credit card and your XM Radio Receiver ID
handy. You can display your ID by tuning your XM Radio to channel ‘0’,
one down from XM Preview. (For tuning instructions see the Receiver
Control Features section of this guide.)
