4G Lights
Separation of Sleek 4G 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 4G inside the vehicle. An
oscillation (or feedback) in the Sleek 4G is similar to when a microphone is too close to a speaker in sound
system, resulting in a loud whistle. An oscillation in the Sleek 4G, if allowed to occur, can affect nearby cell
towers’ ability to handle calls.

SYMPTOM: Amber light is on
If the light is amber, the Sleek 4G has powered down to protect the cell tower from oscillation. See
section above “Separation of Sleek and the Outside Antenna is very important.” The amber light
indicates the outside roof mounted antenna needs to be farther apart from the Sleek 4G. 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 and side windows or sunroof. To reset the Sleek 4G, disconnect and reconnect
the power supply. If the light is now green, the Sleek 4G is working properly. If the amber light is still
on, move the Outside Antenna farther away and repeat the process.

4G SYMPTOM: Red light is on
The Sleek 4G has oscillation protection – which means the Signal Booster powers down to protect the
cell tower. See section above “Separation of Sleek and the Outside Antenna is very important.” The
RED light indicates the outside roof mounted antenna needs to be farther apart from the Sleek 4G. 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 and side windows or sunroof. To reset the Sleek 4G, disconnect and
reconnect the power supply. If the light is now green, the Sleek 4G is working properly. If the RED
light is still on, move the Outside Antenna farther away and repeat the process.

Included with your Sleek 4G are various sized arms, which
will provide you with multiple options to customize the Sleek
to t your phone.
Note: Figures 3 & 4 indicate slots used for adjustable arms.
NOTE: The cell phone must be placed in the Sleek 4G to work properly. Use a Bluetooth
