Installation

It is recommended that prior to starting the installation, you thoroughly read this manual and follow the guidelines listed below:

Consider the mounting location carefully. You should make sure that you avoid the following:

Any location where the tuner is exposed to moisture.

Any location where the unit is exposed to extreme heat.

Any location that would interfere with moving parts on the vehicle or hamper driving.

Mounting the SIR-ECL1 Tuner

Be sure that you find a location that is flat and has clearance above the unit to prevent any damage as well as allow for ventilation.

Do not install the tuner under the carpet or in a small enclosed area without proper ventilation. Doing so can result in damage to the tuner or the vehicle.

Use the supplied screws to securely fasten the unit.

Caution:

If you are attaching the unit directly to the vehicle’s chassis, be sure that you check to make sure the area behind the unit is free from moving parts, fuel or break lines, wire harnesses or any other items which may get damaged by drilling a mounting hole or using the supplied screws.

Installing the Antenna

The antenna includes a 6-1/2” cable cover/tail which covers the exposed antenna cable and keeps it attached securely to vehicle roof. The tail also helps position the antenna the proper distance from the window, sunroof or rear hatch.

To attach the cover/tail:

1)Once you have determined the proper mounting location (see next section), clean the area with the

supplied alcohol swab

3)Connect the cover/tail to the antenna cable, making sure that the strain- relief on the antenna seats into the cover/tail groove. Route the cable through the wire channel in the cover/tail.
