Typical Satellite Weather
If installed, satellite weather features a weather receiver
located in the forward deck rope locker area. It looks like
a hockey puck. The receiver sends satellite weather in-
formation to the chartplotter for display. Along with the
receiver an active subscription is required to receive satel-
lite weather.
The weather information is received from reputable
weather data centers such as the National Weather Ser-
vice and the Hydrometerological Prediction Center. Since
weather information is broadcast at fi ve second intervals
the weather receiver must obtain new data before it can
be shown. Therefore, there might be a delay before new
weather data appears on the map.
Read and understand the XM weather information locat-
ed in the chartplotter owner’s manual before attempting
to use the weather option.
Typical Sirius XM Satellite Radio
If installled, Sirius satellite radio features over 120 channels
of music entertainment completely commercial-free along
with sports and news channels. Sirius emphasizes the
music and entertainment you want. Channels use the most
updated digital fi ltering available for the clearest sound.
Sirius uses three satellites fl ying over the United States for
coast to coast coverage with high elevation angles. The
result is a clearer line of sight and less signal blocking.

called the head unit), Sirius radio tuner and antenna. With
these components and an active account your Sirius system
can be activated. Following are the activation steps to be
taken:
