Before you can listen to any of XM’s more than 170 channels, you must first activate your
XMp3 radio.
1 Make sure your XMp3 radio is receiving the XM signal in live mode so that you
can hear the audio on Channel 1.
2
Make a note of your XM Radio ID. You can find it:
• On XM Channel 0
• On the rear package label
• On the label inside of the battery compartment
NOTE!
The XM Radio ID does not use the letters I, O, S, or F.

Activate your service:
• Online: Go to activate.xmradio.com
OR
• By phone: call 1-800-XM-RADIO (1-800-967-2346)
4 When your service is activated, your XMp3 radio will receive all
channels. This usually takes 10 to 15 minutes, but may take up to an
hour. Your XMp3 radio must remain on until activated.
If you have not yet activated your XMp3 radio and it is not receiving a signal, the radio may
show a Product Demo on its display. The demo disappears when you activate the radio.
