Listening to the Radio—Continued
Signing Up for XM Satellite Radio
Once you have installed the XM Mini-Tuner and Home
Dock, you are ready to subscribe to XM Satellite Radio.
You’ll need a major credit card and your XM Radio ID.
There are three places you can find your 8-character XM
Radio ID:
1. On the XM Mini-Tuner
2. On the XM Mini-Tuner packaging
3. On XM Channel 0, as explained below
Notes:
• RADIO ID cannot be selected in Category Search
mode. You must select Channel Search mode (see
page 76).
• The following letters are not used in XM Satellite
Radio IDs: I, O, S, F.
• XM Satellite Radio will transmit a special signal to
your AV controller to activate the full channel lineup.
Activation normally takes between 10 and 15 minutes,
but during busy peak periods, you may need to leave
the AV controller turned on for up to an hour.
Selecting XM Radio Channels
There are three ways to select XM radio channels:
1. Channel Search mode: select any channel.
2.
Category Search mode:
select channels by category.
3. Direct tuning: enter channel number.
Note:
You can’t select Channel Search mode or Category
Search mode while the Tuning Arrow indicators
are flashing, as tuning is in progress.
