Quick Start Guide

Please read the entire manual to learn details of the
many capabilities of your new Performance Computer.
This page provides only a basic overview of the instal-
lation, features, and capabilities.
INSTALLATION
1) Plug into lighter socket
Plug the cord into the Performance Computer, and into
your car's lighter socket. The Performance Computer is
always "On," there is no on-off switch.
(If your car's lighter socket is always powered,
unplug the Performance Computer when not in use to
avoid discharging your car's battery.)
2) Attach to windshield in center of car
Mount the Performance Computer centered between
the driver and passenger with the suction cup mount.
Make sure the unit is mounted squarely in the car. Do
not mount the unit so it is angled toward the driver.
Pivot the unit on the bracket until it is approxi-
mately level (it is not necessary to be perfectly level).
3) Park on a level surface, then press
and release the CALIBRATE button
Each time you remount the unit, you must calibrate
the G-Meter. (The calibration is stored in memory even
if the unit is unplugged, so you don't need to calibrate
again unless you reposition or reinstall the unit.)
TIMED RUN BUTTON
Press and release to start a timed run
Your car must be stopped before you can perform a
timed run (0-to-60, quarter mile, etc.).
1) Press and release the button
2) Wait a few seconds until the display
shows "Run READY, Start anytime"
3) Accelerate whenever you are ready.
During your run, the unit automatically records and
saves complete run data. The yellow LED lights when
the unit is in the timed run mode and also when you
are reviewing timed runs.
