Using Your Helix Alone
Live XM
✍NOTE: You must receive a live XM signal for at least 8 hours a month (which may be split over several listening sessions). This authenticates your XM subscription and ensures that you can continue to enjoy your recorded XM content and live XM programming. If you do not dock your Helix as described, you will lose access to your recorded content and live XM programming.
Turn on your Helix. Subscribe to XM (page 18) if you haven’t done so already.
If you see “XM” at the top of the display, you’re listening to XM content that is currently being broadcast from the satellites.
If you see “My Music” on the display, you’re listening to recorded XM or MP3/WMA tracks. Press the MODE button to switch to “Live XM.”
