INSTRUCTIONS
Important Safety Information
WARNING
See the
Important Safety and Product Information
guide in the
product box for product warnings and other important

damage caused by fire or overheating, the appropriate fuse
must be in place as indicated in the product specifications. In
addition, connecting the power cable without the appropriate
fuse in place voids the product warranty.

when drilling, cutting, or sanding.

Mounting Considerations
The device can be mounted using the included bracket, or it can
be mounted flush with the dashboard using a flush-mount kit
(may be sold separately).
Before permanently installing any part of your device, you
should plan the installation by determining the location of the
various components.
The mounting location must provide a clear view of the
screen and access to the keys on the device.
The mounting location must be sturdy enough to support the
device and the mount.
The cables must be long enough to connect the components
to each other and to power.
The cables can be routed under the bail mount or behind the
device.
To avoid interference with a magnetic compass, the device
should not be installed closer to a compass than the
compass-safe distance value listed in the product
specifications.
