Xm-problems

I need a little help with this sony product.  The system works fine, allowing me to use cd and FM radio.  However, the system either does one of two things when attempting to listen to XM radio.  1)  The unit does not even recognize XM, or 2) if it does recognize it, then it will only allow you to listen to the xm preview channel.  Is there something I can check?
