Winds Aloft Altitude
The Winds Aloft Altitude selection provides the
pilot with the ability to select any wind altitude from
the ground up to 42,000 feet in 3,000 foot increments.
When no data are shown at a given altitude, the data
for that altitude has not been received. Wait for the
next update. The selected altitude is depicted below
the WINDS label.
To change the XM Weather Winds Aloft altitude:
1. With the “WINDS” product selected, turn the

2. Turn the
small right
knob to change the
value.
3. When done, press the
small right (CRSR)
knob again to remove the cursor (remove
highlighting from the altitude field).

•
XM Weather Timestamp Pages

XM Information Page

is the page you will refer to when activating your sub-
scription to the XM Satellite Radio services.
