To Activate XM Satellite Radio

Once you have installed the XM Mini-Tuner
Dock, inserted the XM Mni-Tuner, connected
the XM Dock to your XM Ready

®

home audio

system, and installed the antenna, you are ready
to subscribe and begin receiving XM
programming. There are three places to find
your eight character XM Radio ID: on the XM
Mini-Tuner, on the XM Mini-Tuner package,
and on XM Channel 0. Record the Radio ID in
the following eight squares for reference.

ssssssss

Note: The XM Radio ID does not use the letters
“I,” “O,” “S,” or “F.” Activate your XM Satellite
Radio service in the U.S. online at http://
activate.xmradio.com or call 1-800-XM-
RADIO (1-800-967-2346). You will need a
major credit card. XM will send a signal from
the satellites to activate the full channel lineup.
Activation normally takes 10 to 15 minutes, but
during peak busy periods you may need to keep
your XM Ready home audio system on for up to
an hour. When you can access the full channel
lineup on your XM Ready home audio system
you are done. For more information or to
subscribe in Canada, visit XM on the Web at
www.xmradio.ca or call XM’s Listener Care at
1-877-GET-XMSR (1-877-438-9677)

Connecting the XM Radio

Before operating the system, connect the XM
Connect-and-Play antenna to the XM jack.

Note
