CAUTION: ROAD SAFETY - Do not use the TC58 while driving.

Park the vehicle first. Always ensure the TC58 is fully inserted
into the cradle. Do not place it on the seat or where it can break
loose in a collision or sudden stop. Lack of proper insertion may
result in property damage or personal injury. Zebra is not respon­sible for any loss resulting from the use of the products while driv­ing. Remember: Safety comes first.

Mounting the Cradle to a RAM
Mount

To mount the cradle onto a diamond (RAM-B-238U) or round
(RAM-202U) shaped RAM Mount (RAM-B-166U):

CAUTION: Only mount the Vehicle Cradle in a vertical position.

Never mount the vehicle cradle on the side or upside down or on
a wall that can be subject to impact or collision of greater than
10Gs, in accordance with SAE J1455 Section 4.10.3.5.

1.

Follow the instructions that are provided with the RAM
Mount for RAM Mount mounting instructions.

2. Align the vehicle cradle with the RAM Mount ball base.

3. Secure the vehicle cradle to the ball base using M4

screws, lock washers and flat washers (provided).

CAUTION: Do not install a Vehicle Cradle on or near an air bag

cover plate or within an area that could cause personal injury. Al­so, do not install it in a location that affects vehicle safety or your
ability to drive.

4.

Secure the RAM Mount to the vehicle depending upon
the type of RAM Mount. See instructions provided with
RAM Mount.

Installation Guide 5

5. Tighten the screws to secure the cradle to the mounting

plate.

6. Adjust RAM Mount according to RAM Mount instructions.

Mounting to a Windshield

CAUTION: Do not install a vehicle cradle on or near an air bag

cover plate or within an area that could cause personal injury.
Do not install it in a location that inhibits visibility, affects vehicle
safety or drivability.

1.

Fix the RAM Mount to the selected area.

2. Twist the lever on the RAM Mount suction cup base to

create a vacuum between the suction cup and the
windshield.

CAUTION:

due to

1) Ensure the glass and the suction cup are completely clean and
free of oils and debris before installing.

2) Periodically remove, clean, and re-seat the suction cup on the
glass (more frequently in the summer and hot, sunny climates).

3.

Adjust the vehicle cradle in a vertical position and ensure

To prevent suction cups from falling off the windshield

bleeding air over time and with extreme heat:

that the suction bond is strong enough before installing
the device.

4. To connect power, see Power Connection on page 7.

5. To insert the device, see TC58 Insertion on page 8.

Power Connection

The wireless vehicle cradle can be powered using a CLA
(cigarette lighter receptacle) Cable (CHG-AUTO-CLA1-01).

• To connect the power to the cradle with a CLA cable,
plug the CLA cable connector into the wireless vehicle
cradle cable and the cigarette adapter into a cigarette
lighter receptacle.

NOTE: To hardwire the wireless vehicle cradle, have a

professional install the Hardwire Auto Charge Cable
(CHG-AUTO-HWIRE1-01).

IMPORTANT: The TC58 must have the Rugged Boot

installed to fit in the wireless vehicle cradle.

To ensure the TC58 is inserted correctly, align the device
with rugged boot installed with the guide rails on the bottom
of the cradle while inserting the device. Listen for the audible
click that signifies that the TC58 locking mechanism is
enabled and the TC58 is locked into place.

Installation Guide 9

To remove the TC58 from the cradle, lift the release latch,
grasp the TC58 and lift out of the vehicle cradle.

TC58 Battery Charging

NOTE: A wireless charge battery must be used for the

charging function of the wireless charge vehicle cradle
to work.

Not all TC58 configurations support wireless charging. Refer
to the Product Reference Guide and configuration
descriptions to ensure wireless charging is supported.

Ensure the vehicle cradle is connected to a power source.
See Power Connection on page 7.

Insert the TC58 into the cradle. The TC58 starts to charge
through the cradle as soon as it is inserted. This does not
deplete the vehicle battery significantly. The battery charges
in approximately four hours.

Charging Note

The Vehicle Cradle operating temperature is -20°C to +50°C.
When in the cradle, the TC58 only charges when its
temperature is between 0°C to +40°C.

Care and Cleaning

Avoid getting oils, grease or gasoline on the cradle. When
necessary, clean the cradle with a mild cleaner. If you are not
sure whether or not to use a particular cleaner, contact Zebra
for advice.
