Using Sirius satellite radio (if fitted)

Before you can receive Sirius satellite radio you must connect a ‘SiriusConnect™ Home Tuner’ package to your T32, obtain a Sirius subscription, and correctly place the Sirius antenna provided in the package to receive Sirius satellite broadcasts. Visit www.sirius.com for more information.

The Sirius ID can be found by selecting channel 0 using the control knob (Dor Ebuttons on the remote control). For example:

SAT ID: 123456789012

The T32 displays the 12-digit number on the front panel display. You should make a note of this ID number, then select Sirius channel 184 while you apply this ID number to your account at www.sirius.com or by calling 888-539-SIRIUS (7474).

Once your subscription is updated, a code is sent over Sirius channel 184 and the T32 displays:
