to positive and its plug must fit the compass' jack. Using an
adapter that does not meet these specifications could
damage the compass or the adapter.
• Always connect the DC adapter to the compass before you
connect it to the power source. When you finish, disconnect
the adapter from the power source before you disconnect it
from the compass.
Note: Since not all vehicles have constant power supplied to the
power outlet, two AAA batteries are required to retain the
compass calibration settings in memory (although they do not
power the compass when vehicle battery power is used).
Insert the barrel plug of the 12V DC adapter (not supplied) into the
DC12V
jack on the back of the compass. Then insert the DC plug
into your vehicle’s power outlet.
MOUNTING THE COMPASS
Choose a clean mounting location on the vehicle’s windshield
where the compass is at least 5 inches away from any stereo
speakers and will not obstruct the driver’s field of view.
Your compass comes with three suction cups for secure
mounting.
1. Insert the small ball head of each suction cup into the larger
hole on the bottom of the bracket and slide it into the
bracket’s smaller hole so it fits tightly.
2. Place the compass in the holder.
Note: To remove the compass from the holder, simply slide it
out.
