XM is a registered trademark of XM Satellite Radio, Inc. XM satellite radio receives signals from two satellites to produce clear, high-quality digital reception. It offers many channels in several categories. Along with a large selection of different types of music, XM satellite radio allows you to view channel and category selections in the display. U.S. EX models Operating the XM Radio To listen to XM radio, turn the ignition switch to the ACCESSORY (I) or the ON (II) position.
