XM Ready® Subscription

Once you have installed the XM Mini-Tuner Home Dock, inserted the
XM Mini-Tuner, connected the XM Mini-Tuner Home Dock to your
XM Ready® 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 below for reference.

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-XMRADIO (1-800-967-
2346). Activate your XM Satellite Radio service in Canada online at
https://activate.xmradio.ca or call 1-877-GET-XMSR (1-877-438- 9677).
You will need a major credit card. XM will send a signal from the
satellites to activate the full channel lineup. Activation normally takes
10-15 minutes, but during peak busy periods you may need to keep
your XM Ready audio system on for up to an hour. When you can
access the full lineup on your XM Ready audio system you are done.
