Vehicle Installation
Select a suitable location for installing the unit that allows routing
of the power cord and does not interfere with vehicle operation.
Refer to the warnings on pages iv–v.
If you are NOT using a remote antenna, be certain to select
a location where the Quest’s flip-up antenna has a relatively
unobstructed view of the sky. For optimal use, position the

may be needed when using the unit in a vehicle with a coated
windshield or an in-screen heating system.
