Antenna Placement Since the NAV101 uses GPS technology for navigation, proper antenna placement is crucial for optimal performance of the GPS receiver. When using GPS antennas, the antenna plane should be parallel to the geographic horizon. There should be nothing between the antenna and the sky to ensure a direct line-ofsight between the antenna and available satellites. The preferred antenna location is on the top of the front bumper or dashboard or trunk area. When placed on the dashboard, performance may be reduced due to obstruction caused by the window or roof. NOTE: Do not cut the GPS antenna cable to shorten or lengthen it. 46 Subject to technical change

ment is crucial for optimal performance of the GPS receiver. When using GPS
antennas, the antenna plane should be parallel to the geographic horizon. There
should be nothing between the antenna and the sky to ensure a direct line-of-
sight between the antenna and available satellites.
The preferred antenna location is on the top of the front bumper or dashboard or
trunk area. When placed on the dashboard, performance may be reduced due to
obstruction caused by the window or roof.
