Set Presets on an XM Radio
XM Satellite Radio can bring you your daily dose of music, talk and information. But like so many multi-media operations today, the selections on this station are so varied, you can spend a lot of time searching for your favorite channels. Setting the presets on your XM Satellite Radio receiver will make your search easier.
Instructions
1. Familiarize yourself with the XM Satellite Radio station options. Scroll through and listen to various selections to discover your favorites.
2. Learn about the first directory, which is called "direct." If you enjoy music from the various eras (60s, 70s, etc), you can leave this directory as it is. Pressing "6" will bring the sixties station up, pressing "8" will summon the eighties station and so on. "1" will give you the preview channel and "0" is your XM identification number.
3. Group your favorites into three categories. The other three directories are A, B and C. Everyday favorites might go in directory A, while news stations could go in directory B and your least listened stations go to directory C.
4. To set the preset, press the "dir" button and scroll to the station you want to set. Push in the scroll button to choose that station. Then press and hold the number on the front of the receiver to set.
5. Follow this setup example. Go to dir A, scroll to 151 (Laugh USA), press in the scroll button to select, then press and hold "1" on front of the receiver. Whenever you want to listen to Laugh USA, just press "dir" to bring you to the A directory and press "1."
