5.3 Refreshing
If the unit is not activated after 1.5 hours a „refresh‟ maybe needed. To accomplish this go to the website
https://care.siriusxm.com/retailrefresh_view.action as explained in Section 2.2. When asked for the Radio
ID number on the website, enter the ID number of the unit you are refreshing, either your audio package
or your data (weather) package. If refreshing both, you‟ll have the opportunity to „refresh another XM
radio‟. If you still are having trouble, call Garmin technical support using the telephone numbers listed at
the front of this guide.
