Windshield installation guidelines
Choose a place on the windshield that will
not obstruct the driver’s view and is within
reach so the buttons are easy to push. Make
sure the windshield surface is clean. Once
installed, the face of the compass must be
pointing toward the rear of the vehicle.
The PNI V2000 mounting bracket is
designed to allow for the unit to be
easily removed. Removal or replacement
of the compass without disrupting the
bracket mechanism eliminates the need
to recalibrate the compass.
The compass can be tilted up or down
a maximum of 20° from road level and
still maintain accuracy. If tilted more
than 20°, the heading information may
not be accurate
(see illustration next
page).
The accuracy of the PNI V2000 will be
diminished by a strong magnetic field,
such as that found in proximity to an
audio speaker. It is recommended that
the unit be mounted 5 or more inches
away from stereo speakers.
