1.5 Using Your Device in a Vehicle
CAUTION:
Select an appropriate location for mounting the device in a vehicle. Never place the device
where the driver’s field of vision is blocked. Make sure that the GPS antenna has a clear
view of the sky.
If the car’s windshield is tinted with a reflective coating, an external antenna (optional) may
be needed to route the antenna to the top of the vehicle through a window. When closing
the window, be careful not to pinch the antenna cable.
Using the Device Holder
Use the device holder to mount your device in a
vehicle. Make sure that the GPS antenna has a clear
view of the sky. (See the document supplied with the
device holder for the installation instruction.)
Connecting the Car Charger
The car charger supplies power to your device when you are using the device in a
car.
CAUTION: To protect your device against
sudden surges in current, connect the car
charger only after the car engine has been
started.
1. Connect one end of the car charger to
the power connector of the cradle.
2. Connect the other end to the cigarette
lighter in the car to power and charge
your device. The indicator on the car
charger lights in green to indicate that
power is being supplied to your device.
