Game Alerts
If your subscription package includes the play-by-play sports channels for your desired sports leagues,
and SiriusXM broadcasts the games, you can set your Roady BT to alert you when your favorite sports
teams so that whenever SiriusXM begins broadcasting a game in which your favorite sports team is
playing, you will be alerted and given the opportunity to tune to the game .
IMPORTANT!
A subscription package which includes the play-by-play sports channels of
the desired leagues is required . For example, if you selected an alert for an NFL team, and
your subscription package did not include NFL play-by-play sports channels, you cannot
receive Game Alerts .
We recommend you do not select alerts for teams in a league which are not included in
your subscription package . Check your subscription package to confirm that it includes
the play-by-play sports channels for the desired leagues before selecting any teams for
alerts in the leagues .
Game Alerts can be saved while you are tuned to a channel where a game is being broadcast, or
you can preselect teams through the menu options . There is no limit on the number of sports teams
which can be saved for Game Alerts .
Alerts are displayed visually and are accompanied by an optional audible alert beep, except when you
are not at the Now Playing screen . If you are not at the Now Playing screen, you will hear the audible
alert beep (provided it’s turned on), but the visual alert will be delayed until you have returned to the
Now Playing screen .
When a single alert is displayed, you can press the
Select button
to tune to the game, or press
Menu
to dismiss the alert, or wait for the alert to time out .
There may be occasions when several Game Alerts happen simultaneously and then a list of alerts
will be displayed . These multiple alerts can be a mixture of Game, Song, and Artist alerts . You can
browse through the multiple alerts by pressing
or
to highlight an alert, and press the
Select
button
to tune to the channel . Once you have selected an alert from the list, all other alerts in the list
are dismissed .
Tips for Obtaining the Best Experience With Game Alerts
Before selecting teams for Game Alerts, familiarize yourself with the following tips to help you obtain the
best experience with Game Alerts:
• Game Alerts normally do not occur if you are tuned to the channel which is broadcasting the
game in which the selected team is playing . However, it’s possible that the same game may
be broadcast on multiple SiriusXM channels simultaneously . If so, you will receive Game Alerts
for the other channels where the game is being broadcast . You can temporarily turn off Game
Alerts if desired (page 41) .
• Avoid selecting all teams in a league for alerts . Select only those teams you are most interested
in following .
