Playing Live XM
Once you select a channel, SKYFi
3
will begin playing the content that is
being broadcast on that channel. You can pause Live XM at any time by
pressing the Play/Pause button. Press the Play/Pause button again to
continue playing the content. Content will resume playing from the location
where it was paused, as long as the content was not paused for more than
30 minutes.
It is possible to pause and resume playing content because SKYFi
3
can ac-
cess at least 30 minutes of stored XM content. SKYFi
3
stores XM content
as you are listening, so if you have been listening for less than 30 minutes,
there will be less than 30 minutes of content in the buffer. You can access
this “30-minute buffer” at any time.
NOTE: XM Instant Traffic and Weather cannot be replayed.
Replaying XM Content
Press the left arrow button to access the 30-minute buffer. SKYFi
3
will
rewind to the beginning of the current song. If the current song has been
playing for less than 5 seconds, SKYFi
3
will rewind to the beginning of the
previous song.
