What is SIRIUS Trafc? Navigational trafc information for 22

major metropolitan areas* in the

continental US. SIRIUS Trafc conveys navigational trafc information for visual display on a compatible navigation system. Using a navigation system (such as the ECLIPSE AVN6610), trafc data from

SIRIUS is displayed either superimposed on

a navigation map, or in a list type format displayed on the navigation screen. The data provides trafc speed and ow

information as well as scheduled and unscheduled incidents, alerting you to congestion, accidents, road construction,

detours, and other trafc related information as you drive. The SIRIUS Trafc data is

updated frequently enabling you to be up-to-

date regarding trafc situations. Based on the information from SIRIUS Trafc, the navigation

system can then plan alternate routes before

you get caught in trafc, and if you make a

wrong turn, the system can recalculate your

route and get you back on track in seconds.

CAUTION

This symbol means important instructions. Failure to heed them can result in injury or material property damage.

HALT USE IMMEDIATELY IF A PROBLEM APPEARS. Failure to do so may cause personal injury or damage to the product.

Return the unit to your authorized retailer or

nearest service center for repairing. INSTALL THE WIRING SO THAT IT IS NOT CRIMPED OR PINCHED BY SCREWS OR SHARP METAL EDGES. Route the cables away from moving parts or sharp pointed edges. This will prevent crimping and damage to the wiring. If the wiring must

pass through a metal hole, be sure to use a

rubber grommet to prevent the wire’s

insulation from being cut by the metal edge

of the hole.

SIR-ECL2nt Installation Guide

Installation

It is recommended that prior to starting the installation, you read completely this installation 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 tuner is exposed to extreme heat.

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

Mounting the SIR-ECL2nt tuner

Be sure that you nd a location that is at and has clearance above the tuner 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.

Installing the Antenna

The antenna includes a plastic 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 rear

window, sunroof or rear hatch. To attach the cover/tail:

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

2. Connect the antenna 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.

harnesses or any other items which may get damaged by drilling a mounting hole or from

the screws.

3. Remove the protective tape from the adhesive and carefully position the antenna with cover/tail and apply pressure to secure it to the vehicle.
