Listening to satellite radio - Sirius satellite radio - Audio - Volvo XC90 Owners Manual - Volvo XC90

The Sirius satellite system consists of a number of high elevation satellites in geosynchronous orbit.

NOTE
• The digital signals from the Sirius satellites are line-of-sight, which means that physical obstructions such as bridges, tunnels, etc, may temporarily interfere with signal reception.
• Avoid any obstructions, such as metallic objects transported on roof racks or in a ski box, or other antennas that may impede signals from the SIRIUS satellites.

Selecting Sirius radio mode

1. Press Power to switch on the audio system (see page 246 for information on the standard radio functions).
2. Turn the SELECTOR dial until Sirius 1 or 2 is displayed.
