MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
Installing metal sleeve, ill 2 - 3
The computer can be mounted in a DIN radio opening of the vehicle with the supplied
metal sleeve.
Please note before mounting, ill. 4:
–
To ensure access to the CD opening a free space of at least 130 mm has to be in
front of the navigation computer.
–
For sufficient air circulation a free space of at least 50 mm has to be behind the
navigation computer.
–
The computer must be installed horizontally. Deviations of - 10 to + 30 degrees can
be set in the "Mounting angle" menu (see "Initial operation"). Larger deviations
may result in malfunctions.
–
A stable connection to the car body is necessary for the computer to function
correctly!
Insert metal sleeve into the DIN opening and press appropriate tags outwards with a
screwdriver. Take care not to damage hidden parts in the dashboard.
Securing the computer using the mounting brackets
If installation of the navigation computer in a DIN slot is impossible or undesirable, it
can be installed in alternative installation locations using the supplied mounting
brackets (e.g., in the glove box, in the luggage compartment or under the seats).
For this purpose, both side-mounted catch springs must be removed from the
navigation computer. The two Torx screws are required later for securing the
mounting bracket.
Attaching mounting brackets, ill. 5
1. Position the brackets with the punched out tab at the right (or left) rear edge of the
computer housing. It must be ensured that the tab fully engages with the sheet
metal of the computer housing.
2. Swing the bracket forwards, applying pressure to the rear edge of the bracket so that
it is flush with the computer housing.
3. Fasten the brackets to the computer housing using the existing Torx screws.
The computer can then be secured in the desired installation location using the screws
supplied.
Suspended installation
If suspended installation is required for the computer (e.g., under the rear shelf), the
mounting brackets can be attached to the computer in the reversed position.
Installing holder for the remote control
The remote control holder can either be screwed in place with the supplied angle
bracket or glued onto the mounting surface with the supplied adhesive tape.
Note: Mounting temperature should be at least 15 degrees centigrade to ensure the
full adhesive effect of the tape.
