Mounting guidelines
• Choose a place on the windshield that
will not obstruct the view of the driver
and is within easy reach.
• Mount the compass on the windshield.
• For maximum accuracy, locate the
compass at least 5˝ (12 cm) away from
stereo speakers.
• Once installed, the face of the compass
must face the rear of the vehicle. The
compass can be adjusted up to 20° from
the vertical and remain accurate.
Ensure the suction cups (included) face
outward from the cradle and press the heads
into the base holes through the larger half of
the hole. Then slide them outward until they
fit snugly against the outside edge.
Ensure that the selected section of windshield
is clean and dry, then press the cradle base
firmly against it until the suction cups adhere
securely. A thin layer of petroleum jelly or
similar grease on the surface of the cups will
improve adhesion.
Adjust the angle of the cradle so the face
of the compass points toward the rear of
