MOUNTING THE BRACKET
Geosat
2C
can easily be mounted on every vehicle provided with car lighter, if in-
stalled wrongly it might not work properly. To work well it must be fixed on the
dashboard with one of the brackets given in the box. Do not put it on the passenger
seat, because it might be a dangerous distraction for the driver.
♦
The rotating bracket must be attached on the windscreen by its sucker, it can be
used on most vehicles. Clean the glass well, arrange the sucker on the windscreen
so that the navigator lays on the dashboard, then fix the sucker pulling the
locking lever.
♦
The bracket to fix Geosat
2C
on the dashboard is less flexible, but less bulky too. To
avoid errors it is better to put the bracket into the navigator and check if it is right
for the dashboard of your vehicle, before fixing it. To fasten the bracket you must
make a hole in the dashboard in a flat part. Be careful to choose the right point
before making the hole, otherwise you might not be able to look at the navigator.
Placing the bracket well is of great importance for the safety of driver and passen-
gers, when you install it remember that:
♦
the higher is the navigator above the dashboard, the fewer are the risks of being
distracted by it while driving
♦
the bracket must be put where it is not dangerous in case of accidents or sharp
braking
♦
the bracket, the unit and its cables must not be placed over airbag panels or in
field of airbag deployment.
