1.3 Using Your Device in a Vehicle
A car holder and a car charger are supplied with your device.
Using the Car Holder
CAUTION:
. Select an appropriate location for the car holder. Never place the holder where
the driver's field of vision is blocked.
. 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 car through a
window. When closing the car window, be careful not to pinch the antenna
cable. (Cars with an anti-jam window design may automatically leave adequate
space as needed.)
The car holder consists of a bracket and
a stand. Use the car holder to fix your
device in a vehicle. Make sure that the
GPS antenna has a clear view of the sky.
(See the document supplied with the car
holder for the installation instruction.)
For initial positioning, remain at the same
spot with a clear view of the sky. The GPS may take a few minutes to find its
current location initially.
NOTE: Depending upon the specific model purchased, the car holder supplied
with your device may not look exactly the same as the picture shown.
1.4 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 your device.
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.
