Vehicle Installation
Installing the Dash Mount to your Vehicle
To secure the mounting base to the dash of the vehicle, choose either the permanent adhesive disk (hole
in disk) or the repositionable adhesive disk (no hole in disk).
1. Carefully clean the area where the base is to be placed using an alcohol-dampened cloth. Wipe the area
dry with a clean, dry cloth. Remove one side of the protective backing from the adhesive, and place the
adhesive on the bottom of the mounting base.
2. Remove the remaining backing from the adhesive and position the base on the cleaned area. Be certain
the locking lever on the base faces forward for easy access.
Installing the Non-Skid Friction Mount Base to your Vehicle
The non-skid friction mount base is designed to fi t an uneven surface. Each of the four weighted tabs
can be bent to fi t the shape of your vehicle’s dash. By fi tting the base to your vehicle’s dash, you maximize
the contact area and minimize the likelihood that the StreetPilot will slide when making sharp turns.

Note: Allow the permanent adhesive to set 24
hours before using the dash mount. If permanent
adhesive is later removed, use rubbing alcohol to
clean any adhesive residue. Repositionable adhesive
should only be used on clean, dust-free surfaces.
