If anything is missing or damaged, or if your SIRIUS Echo Antenna fails to operate properly, notify the dealer or retailer from whom you purchased the prod­uct immediately. It is recommended that you retain the original receipt, carton, and packing materials in case you need to return or ship your unit in the future.
Overview
The SIRIUS Echo Signal Repeater System lets you enjoy SIRIUS radio throughout your home without the need to run antenna wires. If you have purchased this product, it is assumed that you are already using the SIRIUS Echo Signal Repeater System (model SIR-WRS1). Please consult your SIR-WRS1 manual for a more detailed overview of the system.
You can operate multiple SIRIUS radios in differ­ent rooms throughout your home, by connecting each SIRIUS radio to an Echo Antenna. The Echo Antenna discreetly connects to any SIRIUS radio and allows you to conveniently locate that SIRIUS radio anywhere in your home, even in interior rooms, without restrictions due to antenna placement or antenna cable length, and without the need to run wires through your home. The system is designed to work up to a distance of 75 feet between the Echo Transmitter and each Echo Antenna, passing the signal through walls and floors, in a typical wood frame and drywall construction home found in North America.

SIRIUS Echo Antenna
Description
The Echo Antenna connects to a SIRIUS radio or the SIRIUS radio dock and receives the wireless signal from the Echo Transmitter. It can be placed on a flat surface or wall mounted vertically using two screws and the mounting slots on the base of the unit.
The Echo Antenna comes with a 4 feet cable with which it connects to the SIRIUS radio. It has a green LED on the front, labeled "POWER". It also has a black plastic antenna on the side that can swivel up and down.
The “POWER” LED lights up when the unit is properly connected to the SIRIUS radio and the SIRIUS radio itself is turned on. For proper operation of the Echo Antenna, this LED needs to be lit up. The black plas­tic antenna on the side needs to be swiveled up in an upright vertical position, so that it is pointing straight up, regardless if the unit is placed on a flat surface or mounted to a wall.

ER” LED on the front of the Echo Antenna is lit up.

Extra Installation Tips
• Your Echo Antenna may be placed indoors up to 75 feet away from the Echo Transmitter.
• There should at least be a separation of 10 feet be­tween your Echo Transmitter and Echo Antenna
• The Echo Antenna should be placed as high as pos­sible above obstacles for best reception.
• The Echo Antenna may be wall mounted using
screws. The unit has wall mount screw spacing of 1 ½ inches apart. Insert the screws into the wall with approximately ¼” distance from the wall. Place the back of the unit over the heads of the screws and pull down slightly to engage the slot lock. To re­move the unit from the wall, slide directly up the wall and pull out and off the screw heads. The unit can be rotated 90 degrees when a wall mount con­figuration is desired
Using the SIRIUS Echo Antenna
When the Echo Antenna has been installed, turn on the SIRIUS radio and check the Antenna Aiming/ Signal Strength display to verify the SIRIUS signal strength. If the SIRIUS signal strength is good, and the audio from the SIRIUS radio is good, the system is working properly. If the SIRIUS signal strength is not good, or the audio from your SIRIUS radio is either absent or intermittent, then the system installation needs to be fine tuned. Please consult the trouble shooting section in the SIRIUS Echo Signal Repeater System (SIR-WRS1) user’s manual.
