Installing the Antenna
Installation
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.
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:
To attach the cover/tail:
• Any location where the tuner is
exposed to moisture.
• Any location where the tuner is
exposed to extreme heat.
1. Once you have determined the proper
mounting location (see the next
section), clean the area with the
supplied alcohol swab.
• Any location that would interfere with
moving parts on the vehicle or interfere
with driving.
Mounting the SIR-ECL2nt tuner
Be sure that you find a location that is flat 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 ventila-
tion. Doing so can result in damage to the
tuner or the vehicle. Use the supplied screws to
securely fasten the unit.
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.

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

Optimum Antenna Mounting Locations
The optimum location to mount the antenna
is on the roof of the vehicle. It is important to
avoid any obstruction that will block the
satellite signal, such as a roof rack. For
convertible vehicles, install the antenna on
the trunk lid as shown.
Sedan/Coupe
• Place the antenna on a metal surface
of your vehicle at least 12” x 12”, and at
least 6” from a window. (Use the
antenna cover/tail as a guide for the
proper distance from the rear window.)
• The antenna’s magnet will secure it to
the metal surface. The adhesive that is
attached to the antenna cover/tail will
secure the cable to the vehicle. Before
routing the antenna cable, confirm that
the antenna is mounted in a suitable
location.
SUV/Mini-Van
Truck
Convertible (only)
• Route the cable from the antenna to the
vehicle’s interior by tucking it
underneath the rubber molding around
the rear window, if possible.
• Route the cable from the lowest point
of the rear window into the trunk. Take
advantage of any existing cable
channels or wiring conduits.
• For SUVs, minivans and five-door
vehicles, bring the cable into the
vehicle under the rubber molding of the
tailgate, and continue under the interior
trim.
Caution:
• From the trunk, carefully route the
cable to the location of the
SIR-ECL2nt and plug the SMB
• Do not pull the wire across sharp
edges that could damage it.
• Keep the wire away from areas where it
could become tangled in the driver’s
and passenger’s feet.
connector into the tuner.
• Keep the antenna wire away from
extreme heat, such as exhaust systems.
• Avoid placing the cable near any
moving parts.

Activating Your SIRIUS Subscription
You must activate SIR-ECL2nt before
you can start to receive the SIRIUS
Note: If this is the first time
selecting SIRIUS as a source, the
display may show the text
“UPDATING” - which means the
SIR-ECL2nt is receiving important
channel or category updates.
Satellite Radio service and the SIRIUS Traf-
fic service. Each is a separate service, and
each needs to be activated individually.
In order to activate your radio and traffic
subscriptions, you will need the two SIRIUS
IDs (SIDs) – one for the SIRIUS Satel-
lite Radio service and one for the SIRIUS
Traffic service – which uniquely identify
your SIR-ECL2nt tuner. The SIDs may be
found on sticker located on the bottom of the
SIR-ECL2nt packaging or on the bottom of
the unit itself. The label will have printed on
it two 12-digit SID numbers. The first will be
the Data SID for the SIRIUS Traffic service,
for example, “Data SID: 123456789012”.
The second is the Audio SID for the SIRIUS
Radio service, for example, “Audio SID:
987654321098”.
Note: Don’t push any buttons or
perform any operations until
updating has been completed.
Once updated and the SIRIUS
channels are received, the display
will change to Channel 184 the
SIRIUS Satellite Radio’s Preview
Channel (the display will show
“CH184” and “CALL 888-539-
SIRIUS”). At this time you should
also be able to hear the audio from
the Preview Channel.
4. To display the SIRIUS Audio ID:
AVN6610: Press “MENU” then select
“INFO” then “SIRIUS ID”, or tune to chan-
nel “0” and press “FUNC”, “TITLE”.
5. The SIRIUS ID is a 12-digit number.
Write down the SIRIUS ID (SID) in
the location provided on page 16 for future
reference.
Note: You will need the Data SID for the
SIRIUS Traffic service from the label on the
bottom of the unit or from the original
packaging, theAVN source unit does not
diplay this number. TheAudio SID can be
displayed by the unit.
Note: It is possible to activate only the
audio or the traffic service, just use the
appropriate SID. When you have located
both SIDs, write them down in the space
provided on page 16 of this manual.
1. Make sure that the SIR-ECL2nt is
properly connected and that its
antenna is oriented to receive the
SIRIUS satellite signal.
2. Turn on the ECLIPSE source unit.
3. Select SIRIUS as the source:
AVN source unit: Press the “SIRIUS”
button (located on the touch screen)
to select SIRIUS as the source.
