Satellite Radio channels:
SiriusTMSatellite Radio has over 130
channels, including 69 channels of
100% commercial-free music, plus
sports, news, talk and entertainment
available nationwide in your vehicle.
For more information and a complete
list of Sirius
TMSatellite Radio chan-
nels, visit sirius.com in the United
States, sirius-canada.ca in Canada,
or call Sirius
TMat 1-800-643-2112.
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
unobstructed, open view of the sky, a
requirement of a satellite radio sys-
tem. 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
antenna as possible. Terrain: Hills, mountains, tall build-
ings, bridges, tunnels, freeway
overpasses, parking garages,
dense tree foliage and thunder-
storms can interfere with your
reception.

tion-based satellite radio service that

entertainment programming to radio

scription, sold separately, after 3-
month trial included with vehicle

ue your Sirius
