1.6 Using Your Device in a Vehicle

Using the Car Holder

Your car holder consists of a bracket and an arm stand. Follow this procedure

to mount the device in a car:

1. Assemble the bracket and the arm stand.

2. Clean the windshield where you will apply the suction cup.

3. Attach the suction cup to the windshield and push in the locking

tab to secure the suction cup.

4. Carefully fit the device into the bracket.

5. Turn the rotate wheel at the top of the arm stand clockwise to loosen

it. Adjust the device to the best viewing angle, and then turn the rotate wheel counterclockwise to fasten it.

When the device is placed in the bracket, you can push the Volume control

on the bracket to adjust the volume.

CAUTION:

 After the suction cup is secured to the windshield, never try to pull or wriggle the

arm.

 When placing the car holder, make sure that the device does not obstruct the

driver’s view, or interfere with the operation of vehicle airbags and safety devices.

 Always adjust the device and the arm of the car holder for the best viewing angle

BEFORE driving. Avoid adjusting the device with one hand while driving.

 When using the car holder, keep the car temperature in a normal range. If the

temperature gets too low, the car holder’s suction cup can harden and affect its suction.

 Loosen the locking tab first before removing the car holder.  To retain adhesion of the suction cup, detach and then re-attach the suction cup at

least once a month.

 Do not place the device in front of car air heating output.

NOTE: 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.
