Installation and Precautions
Car installation
To allow an easy installation on your
car, the GEONAV is supplied with an
additional bracket that ends with a
suction cup. When the unit is installed,
make sure that your car front window
has enough space to allow proper road
visibility.
Installation procedure is the following:
1. Locate a flat surface on the window
that allows you to position the
bracket base on the dashboard as
well as allows the internal GPS to
have the best sky visibility (the GPS needs to track
satellites, hence needs to be able to see the sky).
2. Clean the entire front window area you wish to use for unit
installation. Use a good window cleaner and paper towels
and dry the area completely.
3. Verify that the GEONAV does not interfere with levers,
airbags and other car facilities.
4. Push the lever back on the suction cup.
5. Place the suction cup firmly on the clean, flat glass surface
and push the lever forward to adhere to the glass.
6. Make sure that the unit is firmly secured and correctly
positioned and that it will not fall off the window. This step
is very important to ensure safe operation while driving.
Test the connection between the unit and the window
several times after installation and during use.
7. Place the mounting bracket on top of the dashboard and
orientate the plotter to the best position for the internal
GPS antenna.
8. Plug the power cord into the lighter adapter.
