Step 5: Confirm all Components of your Service

XM WX Weather: Keep your Garmin unit turned on to
ensure you receive the XM signal. The XM signal is being
received when the components of the selected service
package are displayed in the Weather Products list on the
Information sub tab. Do not turn off the Garmin unit until the
name of the selected service package is displayed in the
Service Level field (see Step 6).
XM Radio: Highlight the Audio sub tab and verify that
channels 7, 9, 47, and 122 are being received. This
indicates that all channels on XM’s basic radio service
are being received. If within an hour the XM WX Weather
and/or the XM Radio service has not activated, call XM WX
customer care at 800-985-9200 to validate the activation
of XM services. The customer care representative can
refresh the activation signal or you can do this yourself a

requested.

Level field, turn off the Garmin unit.

are ready to add weather features to the unit’s Map Page
