2.2 Using the mounting bracket.
The
RN1
comes
with
a
car
mount
kit
and
a
car
charger
to
help
install
your
device
in
your
vehicle.
The
car
mount
kit
uses
a
suction
cup
on
the
windshield to
offer
flexible
mounting
options
for
the
RN1.
Warning:
Some
countries
prohibit
the
mounting
of
any
electronic
device
on
the
vehicle
dashboard.
Be
sure
to
check
your
local
laws
for
acceptable
mounting
areas
before
installing
the
car
mount
bracket.
This section shows how to install the car mount kit in your vehicle’s windshield using the suction cup.
The RN1 uses a snap on mounting cradle to use when the device attaches to the car mount. Below is the
backside view of the RN1 in the cradle.
