ACTIVATING YOUR SiriusXM SUBSCRIPTION

After installing your SiriusXM Connect Tuner and antenna, power on your 

source unit and select SiriusXM mode. You should be able to hear the 

SiriusXM Preview channel on Channel 1. If you cannot hear the preview 

channels, please check the installation instructions to make sure your 

SiriusXM Connect tuner is properly installed.
After you can hear the Preview channel, tune to Channel 0 to find 

the Radio ID of your tuner. In addition, the Radio ID is located on the 

bottom of the SiriusXM Connect Tuner and its packaging. You will need 

this number to activate your subscription. Write the number down for 

reference.
Note: the SiriusXM Radio ID does not include the letters I, O, S or F.
In the USA, you can activate online or by calling SiriusXM Listener care:

•  Call XM Customer Care at 1-877-438-9677
As part of the activation process, the SiriusXM satellites will send an 

activation message to your tuner. When your radio detects that the tuner 

has received the activation message, your radio will display: “Subscrip-

tion Updated”. Once subscribed, you can tune to channels in your 

subscription plan. Note, the activation process usually takes 10 to 15 

minutes, but may take up to an hour. Your radio will need to be powered 

on and receiving the SiriusXM signal to receive the activation message.
