Making Your Tao xm2go Your Own
Direct Tune: Select Channels Faster
Normally as you rotate the dial, you can preview what’s
playing on other XM channels before you push the dial
in to select a channel. To automatically tune to the
channel without pressing the dial, you can set the
following option:
1. Use the “
menu
” button and dial to select “Channel
Access.”
2. Select “Direct Tune.”
3. Select “Direct Tune On.” (To return to the factory-
default method, select “Direct Tune Off.”)
Setting Time Features
XM automatically sets the minutes of your Tao xm2go’s
built-in clock. You can adjust the hours by time zone,
choose 12- or 24-hour formats, and choose whether
Daylight Savings Time is used in your area. Your Tao
xm2go also has a sleep timer and an alarm. You can set
the sleep timer to shut off your Tao xm2go
automatically after 15 minutes or up to an hour. The
alarm turns on your Tao xm2go at a certain time;
you can choose to be alerted by a beep or by XM
programming.
Important!
If you use your Tao xm2go in your vehicle,
you can choose whether your ignition key automatically
powers on your Tao xm2go. Choose the “Vehicle Mode”
menu, and then the “Auto On/Off”. Set to “On” to turn
Tao xm2go on or off with the ignition key. Set this
option to “Off” if your Tao xm2go is connected to power
that is always live; you must then use Tao xm2go’s
power button to turn it on or off.
For vehicles with power outlets that are always
powered, we recommend that you use the “Delayed
Power OFF” feature. This avoids draining your vehicle
battery if your Tao xm2go is left on.
