Contact Wilson Electronics Technical Support Team with any questions at 866-294-1660
or email: [email protected]. Mon.- Fri. Hours: 7 am to 6 pm MST.
NOTE: The cell phone must be placed in the cradle to work properly.
Warning: DO NOT use phone covers that have chrome or any other metallic surface. It may block
cellular signals.
The Outside Antenna must be installed vertically.
Antenna performance will be degraded if the
antenna is not vertical.
The antenna cable is small yet strong enough that it
may be shut in most vehicle doors without damaging
the cable.
For a more professional looking installation, run the
antenna cable under the door seal. Carefully pull
down the door seal. Run the cable under the seal
and push the seal back into place. This prevents
constant wear and tear on the cable as the door
opens and closes. The antenna cable is small
enough to easily tuck under the door seal or
plastic molding.

Vehicle Installation
1. Install the Outside Antenna
To receive the best cell signal, select a location for the Outside Antenna that is preferably in the center
of the vehicle’s roof, 12 inches away from any other antennas, free of obstructions, and at least 6 inches
from the rear or side windows or sunroof.
General
Your Wilson Electronics Sleek has been carefully engineered to signicantly improve the performance
of your phone. Together with an Outside Antenna, the Sleek’s state-of-the-art circuitry is designed to
increase your phone’s signal to and from the cell tower. The Sleek reduces disconnects and dropouts
and increases data communication rates on 2G, 3G networks and 4G networks (in some models).
How it Works
With the phone in the cradle and while using a wireless Bluetooth™headset (or hands free device) the
Outside Antenna collects the cell tower signal and sends it through the cable to the Sleek. The signal
is then boosted by the Sleek and sent to the phone. When the phone transmits, the signal is picked up
wirelessly and boosted by the Sleek and transmitted back to the cell tower through the Outside Antenna.

2. Attach the Mounting Bracket
A mounting bracket is provided for attaching the Sleek to your vehicle’s dash. Other options are also
available from Wilson Electronics.
3. Attach the Sleek®to the Bracket
Once you have installed the bracket in the desired location, and waited 24 hours for adhe-
sive to cure, attach the Sleek by aligning the rectangular hole on its back with the tab on
the mount bracket, grasping the sides of the Sleek, and sliding it downward approximately
¼ inch into place.
Once the cradle is attached, you can adjust the angle of the adhesive bracket by applying
gentle pressure to the top or bottom of the Sleek. The bracket is designed to swivel when
the knurled nut is loosened for greater adjustability of the Sleek viewing angle. To lock
bracket into position, tighten large nut.
ADHESIVE BRACKET- Included in this package
1. Clean the area where the bracket is to be mounted with the
supplied alcohol wipe. Allow to dry.
2. Peel the backing to expose the adhesive and press the
bracket onto the desired location in the vehicle. Note: Be sure
the tab is positioned vertically, not horizontally.
3. Allow the adhesive to cure for 24 hours before you attach
the Sleek.
Power up the Wilson Electronics Sleek®
Accessory port to power your phone, some adapters available
through Wilson Electronics at 866-294-1660. (See Figure 2)
Connect the mini-USB plug on the power cable to the Sleek’s mini
USB port located on the bottom of the Sleek and insert the adapter
into the vehicle power adapter of your vehicle. The Sleek may remain
on all the time. However, leaving the Sleek on in a vehicle when it is
not running can discharge the battery in a day or two.
Note: The 12V DC power source on many vehicles is shut off
with the ignition key.
Warning: Use only the supplied Wilson Electronics power
supply.
Warning: Make sure the Outside Antenna cable is
connected before powering up the Sleek.
4. Attach the Outside Antenna cable to the Sleek®
Attach the cable from the Outside Antenna to the antenna connector
on the Sleek. (See Figure 1)

Adjusting the Sleek®Arms
Included with your Sleek are various sized arms, which will provide you with multiple
options to customize the Sleek to t your phone.
1. Change arms
Gently grab the arm and lift
upward until the arm slides
free from the Sleek.
2. Reposition arms
Position the arm above a different slot on the Sleek (indicated by
the yellow in the drawing). Gently slide the arm down until the arm
is rmly in place.
NOTE: The cell phone must be placed in the Sleek to work properly. Use a Bluetooth
™
or wired hands free device.
Green light is on : Sleek is operating properly.
SYMPTOM: No light, or light always off
1. Make sure that the power supply for the Sleek is functioning properly, by making
sure the light located on the power supply is lit.
2. If the DC plug-in power supply is properly inserted, but the plug’s light doesn’t
come on, then check the 12 volt power from the car socket, and check the fuse
in the DC plug-in power supply.
Understanding the Sleek®Lights
Separation of the Sleek and the Outside Antenna is very important. In a vehicle, the metal roof acts
as a barrier and helps shield the two antennas from each other, preventing oscillation (feedback).
Oscillation can occur when the roof mounted antenna is too close to the Sleek inside the vehicle. An
oscillation (or feedback) in the Sleek is similar to when a microphone is too close to a speaker in a
sound system, resulting in a loud whistle. An oscillation in the Sleek, if allowed to occur, can affect
nearby cell towers’ ability to handle calls.
Sleek® SYMPTOM: Red light is on
If the light is red, the Sleek has powered down to protect the cell tower. See section above “Separation
of Sleek and the Outside Antenna is very important.” If the light turns red, the Sleek has powered
down to protect the cell tower from oscillation. The red light indicates the outside roof mounted
antenna needs to be moved farther from the Sleek. In a vehicle installation, move the Outside
Antenna on the roof of the car farther to the rear of the car, but at least 6 inches from the rear
or side windows or sunroof. To reset the Sleek, disconnect and reconnect the power supply. If
the light is now green, the Sleek is working properly. If the red light is still on, move the Outside
Antenna farther away and repeat the process.

In-Building Installation
Installing a Wilson Electronics Outside Antenna in a Building
Follow the specic antenna instructions included with the Outside Antenna. These instructions assume
that you are using a Wilson Electronics Mini-Magnet Mount Antenna and the optional suction cup window
bracket.
To receive the best signal, select a window on the side of your building where your outside signal is the
strongest.
Attach the suction cup bracket to the inside of a window so that the cable will reach
the location of the Sleek. Place the bracket as high on the window as possible for
best performance.
Once the bracket is in place, attach the magnet base of the antenna to the at
surface of the bracket. Note: The antenna must be installed vertically. Signal
performance will be degraded if the antenna is not vertical.
Installing the Wilson Electronics Sleek®Signal Booster in a Building
The Wilson Electronics Sleek may be placed in any convenient indoor location, such as a desk or
tabletop. The cell phone or data card must be in the cradle and use a Bluetooth™headset or wired
hands free device for voice communications.
Attaching the Antenna
Once you have selected the location for the Sleek, run the cable from the outside antenna and attach it
to the SMA connector on the bottom of the Sleek.
Note: The cell phone must be placed in the Sleek cradle to amplify properly.
Warning: The Sleek®and the Outside Antenna must have a minimum separation of 3 feet to
prevent oscillation.

Each Signal Booster is individually tested and factory set to ensure FCC compliance. The Signal Booster cannot be adjusted without factory reprogramming or
disabling the hardware. The Signal Booster will amplify, but not alter incoming and outgoing signals in order to increase coverage of authorized frequency bands
only. If the Signal Booster is not in use for five minutes, it will reduce gain until a signal is detected. If a detected signal is too high in a frequency band, or if the
Signal Booster detects an oscillation, the Signal Booster will automatically turn the power off on that band. For a detected oscillation the Signal Booster will
automatically resume normal operation after a minimum of 1 minute. After 5 (five) such automatic restarts, any problematic bands are permanently shut off until
the Signal Booster has been manually restarted by momentarily removing power from the Signal Booster. Noise power, gain, and linearity are maintained by the
Signal Booster’s microprocessor.
