Does the radio in your vehicle have those capabilities? The XM feature doesn't come with the standard model. I would check your manual or contact the dealer you got it from. Not every car radio can have XM.

1. Radio ON, tune to the XM channel 0 and record the radio ID. The radio ID will be required for activation of the new receiver.
2. Call XM radio to deactivate the faulty receiver and activate the new receiver.
   • US: 1-800-556-3600
   • Canada: 1-877-438-9677
3. Park the vehicle outside in an area with an unobstructed view of the southern sky.
4. Leave the vehicle outside with the ignition switch in the ACC position and the radio ON, tune to the XM channel 1 for 30 minutes to activate XM service.
5. Once activated, the radio will receive the remaining XM channels.
6. XM is trade mark

Often times you'll need an aftermarket integration kit to get an XM ready car radio to work. This is a two part system including the tuner to tie the subscription to and a translator to code it so the radio face will understand and display the information accurately. You can find such a kit for your car here: http://www.tss-radio.com/isimple-factory-ipod-xm-integration-for-honda-acura-vehicles-hd1.html

there should be a radio code, like a serial number for your xm radio, maybe in your owner's manual. all you do is call xm with this code and have it activated.

Same problem here. I repeatedly complained to XM but got no reply. I listen to XM in 2009 Sonata and it was just as bad.

XM is better than AM. Much worse than FM.

I have had this problem at least a half-dozen times, and the simplest solution is to pull the 2 fuses labeled 'audio 1' and 'audio 2.' It resets the radio, but it will work for a while after that (until I have to do it again). Had the xm unit replaced 3 times, new antenna installed, replaced the antenna connection wire - it always dies within a month.

Get your subscription refunded. There is nothing wrong with your radio. if they can't make it work, don't pay them.

The radio has a code. If you have the car's manual it will tell you how to display the code on the radio screen. Subscribe to xm and give them the radio code, and that is it. Helpful Hint : If you just want music and news and not all the other programs . XM has a 9.99 per month subscription, they won;t tell you unless you ask.. Good luck

"XM Ready" means that you have to have a satelite radio installed in order to have XM service. I went through this when buying my 2005 CR-V and thought that all I needed was to set up the service. If you have an XM receiver installed you can controll it on your Honda factory radio. It is very misleading.
