130 channels, including 69 channels
of 100% commercial-free music, plus

Satellite Radio reception factors:
To receive the satellite signal, your
vehicle has been equipped with a
satellite radio antenna located on the
roof of your vehicle. The vehicle roof
provides the best location for an unob-
structed, open view of the sky, a
requirement of a satellite radio system.
Like AM/FM, there are several factors
that can affect satellite radio reception
performance:
Antenna obstructions: For optimal reception performance, keep the
antenna clear of snow and ice build-
up and keep luggage and other
material as far away from the anten-
na as possible.
Terrain: Hills, mountains, tall build- ings, bridges, tunnels, freeway over- passes, parking garages, dense
tree foliage and thunderstorms can
interfere with your reception.
