External Power Connection
Your StreetPilot is designed to be portable, allowing you to easily transport the unit from vehicle
to vehicle or take it with you once you reach your destination. A Dash Mount Kit consisting of a
mounting bracket, mounting base, required hardware and adhesive pads is included in the StreetPilot
package. This provides a semi-permanent method of installing the unit at the best viewing location for
the driver or passenger(s). The dash mount bracket may be either permanently or temporarily
mounted using the included adhesive materials. Follow instructions for installing the mounting
bracket on the StreetPilot as explained in the instruction sheet provided with the Dash Mount Kit
which also includes specific instructions for installation of all kit components. General instructions are
included here for your convenience.
To install the cigarette lighter adapter, locate the connector on the rear of the StreetPilot unit
(behind the rubber weather cap). The connector is “keyed” with a notch located between two pins.
Mate the plug on the cigarette lighter adapter to this connector by aligning the notches and pushing
the plug into the connector until fully seated (picture at right). Use care when routing the adapter
cable being certain that it does not interfere with vehicle operation in any way.
Carefully choose the placement
of the base on the dash and
install using either the temporary
or permanent adhesive.
Slide the StreetPilot and
mounting bracket into the
base until it snaps into
place.
Slide the locking lever to the right to lock
the unit, preventing it from sliding off
the base.
To remove the unit from the base, slide the
lever to the left, depress the release tab, slide
the unit to the right, and lift from the base.
