Q&As

What is “On Demand” content?

On Demand content is previously live broadcast content, such as interviews, concerts, comedy specials or episodes from shows, which is recorded and saved in the SiriusXM On Demand library. SiriusXM with 360L provides access to more than 10,000 hours of On Demand content, and includes the ability to skip forward, skip backward and pause this content.

What are Xtra Channels?

In addition to the 100+ channels you get in your vehicle, Xtra Channels feature ad-free music made to match your mood or set the perfect tone for wherever the road takes you. This feature is not available in some models.

Do I need data in order to use SiriusXM with 360L?

No data plan is required to access satellite channels. For the full SiriusXM with 360L experience, you will need to accept the OnStar Terms & Conditions.

I have enabled Tune Start, so why isn’t SiriusXM content playing from the beginning when I tune to a station?

You must save the channel as a Favourite to experience the benefits of Tune Start. This way, the system will automatically buffer the content.

Note: All streaming music channels and select satellite music channels support Tune Start.

 

When I listen to certain SiriusXM channels, why aren’t some of the icons showing up on the Now Playing screen?

The icons are dependent on the type of channel or content you are listening to.

Why do I occasionally receive an error message when I am viewing my settings, personalized recommendations or On Demand content?

You may be receiving an error message in these menus due to a loss of 4G connectivity.
