3.1 Verify the Radios are Ready to be Activated
The
AUX - XM INFORMATION page
has two modes, Radio Information and Radio Operation. The
page should default to
INFO
mode (if the radio is not activated). You will need to be on this page when
you call for activation. You can change modes with the
RADIO/INFO
soft keys. The
INFO
page should
look like Figure 3-2.
Pressing the
RADIO
smart key will display the
AUX – XM RADIO
page and will look similar to
Figure 3-3. If the radio is inactivated and working properly the G1000/G900X/G950 will display the
free-to-air channels, which are channel 0 (Radio ID) and channel 1 (XM Preview). If you can see the free-
to-air channels and can hear channel 1, you are ready to activate your radios. Press the soft key under
INFO
and the page will return to the
INFO
page.
