Installing the navigation unit
ŞChoose the installation location carefully so that the
unit will not interfere with normal driving operations.
ŞAvoid installing the unit in areas subject to dust, dirt,
excessive vibration, or high temperature, such as in
direct sunlight or near heater ducts.
ŞUse only the supplied mounting hardware for a safe
and secure installation.
Installation in the glove compartment
Before installation, clean the attachment surface.
1 Select a location in the glove compartment that
allows easy insertion/ejection of the map data
memory ʔ to/from the unit ʓ.
2 Attach the hook fasteners ʕ to the bottom of the
unit, and the loop fasteners ʕ to the position
where the unit is to be installed, then install the
unit ʓ.
Notes
ŞCheck that the unit ʓ is securely fixed.
ŞMake sure the cords are not pinched by any part of the glove
compartment when it is being opened or closed.
Installing the GPS antenna (aerial)
ŞChoose a location where no obstacle blocks GPS
satellite reception so as to achieve best reception.
ŞMake sure the GPS antenna (aerial) does not
interfere with the operation of car equipment.
ŞSome types of front windshield (windscreen) block
GPS satellite radio waves. If reception is poor when
the GPS antenna (aerial) is installed inside the car,
install it outside.
1 Decide the installation location on the dashboard
or rear tray, then clean the attachment surface.
Choose a flat surface where:
– the GPS antenna (aerial) can be positioned
horizontally.
– operation of the passenger-side airbag is not
impeded.
– GPS satellite reception is not blocked by anything
inside the car or the windshield (windscreen)
wipers.
2 Attach the mounting sheet , then attach the
GPS antenna (aerial) on it.
Notes
ŞBe sure to use the mounting sheet , otherwise signal reception
may be poor.
ŞDo not install the GPS antenna (aerial) close to other electrical
equipment, otherwise signal reception may be unstable.
ŞIf the surface of the mounting sheet is cold, the double-sided
tape may not stick firmly. Warm up its surface with a hair dryer, etc.,
before applying the tape.
ŞIf there is no flat surface on which to install the GPS antenna (aerial)
, bend the mounting sheet to fit a curved surface before
installing.
