Before you can listen to XM content, you must activate your XpressR.
1. Set up your XpressR, car cradle, power adapter, and antenna (pages 11- 22). Make sure
XpressRcan receive the XM signal.
2. Find the 8-character XM Radio ID, which is printed on the package or on the back of
your XpressR. Or select XM channel 0 to view the Radio ID. Record the Radio ID here for
reference:
The XM Radio ID does not use the letters I, O, S, or F.
3. Activate your XM Satellite Radio service online at https://activate.xmradio.ca and 1 877
GET XMSR (1-877-438-9677). You will need a major credit card. The website will walk
you through activation, selecting a service plan, and creating an XM account.
XM will send a signal from the satellites to activate the full channel lineup. Activation
normallytakes 10 to 15 minutes, but during peak busy periods you may need to keep
your XpressRon for up to an hour. When you can access the full channel lineup on your
XpressR, you’re finished!
