Satellite Radio Channels:

SIRIUS TM Satellite Radio offers more than 130 channels, including 69 commercial-free music channels, as well as sports, news, talk and entertainment channels, available throughout the country in your vehicle.

For more information and a complete list of SIRIUS TM Satellite Radio channels, visit sirius.com in the U.S., sirius-canada.ca in Canada, or call SIRIUS TM at 1-888-539-7474.

Satellite Radio Reception Factors:

To receive the satellite signal, your vehicle is equipped with a satellite radio antenna located on the roof of your vehicle. The roof provides the best location for an unobstructed view of the sky, which is required for the satellite radio system.

As with AM/FM, several factors can affect satellite radio reception performance:

  • Antenna obstructions: For optimum reception, keep the antenna clear of snow and ice, and keep luggage and other materials as far from the antenna as possible.
  • Terrain: Hills, mountains, tall buildings, bridges, tunnels, highway overpasses, parking garages, dense tree foliage and thunderstorms may interfere with your reception.

SIRIUS Satellite Radio Service TM:

SIRIUS TM Satellite Radio is a subscription satellite radio service that broadcasts music, sports, news and entertainment to radios available for installation in vehicles or factory-installed, as well as home, portable and wireless devices, and through an Internet connection on a personal computer.

Vehicles equipped with a factory-installed SIRIUS Satellite Radio TM system include:

  • Hardware and a trial subscription period that begins on the date of sale or lease of the vehicle.
  • Access to SIRIUS TM music channels and other select channels for a small update fee via the Internet from any connected personal computer (U.S. customers only).

For information on extended subscription terms, contact SIRIUS TM at 1-888-539-7474.

NOTE:

SiriusXM service requires a subscription, sold separately, after the 3-month trial period included with the vehicle purchase. If you decide to continue your SiriusXM service at the end of your trial subscription, the plan you select will automatically renew and be billed at the then-current rates until you call Sirius XM at 1-866-635-2349 to cancel. For full terms, see our Customer Agreement at www.siriusxm.com. Programming is subject to change. Sirius satellite service is available only to persons at least 18 years of age and older in the 48 contiguous United States, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico (coverage limitations apply).
