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 1-888-539-7474.
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.
SIRIUS
TMSatellite Radio service:
SIRIUSTMSatellite Radio is a subscrip-
tion-based satellite radio service that
broadcasts music, sports, news and
entertainment programming to radio
receivers, which are available for installa-
tion in motor vehicles or factory installed,

Vehicles that are equipped with a factory
installed SIRIUS

TMmusic channels, and other
select channels over the Internet using
any computer connected to the
Internet (U.S. customers only).
For information on extended subscrip-
tion terms, contact SIRIUS
TMat 1-888-
539-7474.
NOTE:
SiriusXM service requires a sub-
scription, sold separately, after 3-
month trial included with vehicle
purchase. If you decide to contin-
ue your SiriusXM service at the
end of your trial subscription, the
plan you choose will automatical-
ly renew and bill at then-current
rates until you call Sirius XM at 1-
866-635-2349 to cancel. See our
Customer Agreement for com-
plete terms at www.siriusxm.com.
Programming subject to change.
