Installation and Operation
warnings
Failure to avoid the following
potentially hazardous situations could
result in an accident or collision
resulting in death or serious injury.
• When installing the device in a
vehicle, place the device securely
so it does not obstruct the driver's
view of the road or interfere with
vehicle operating controls, such as
the steering wheel, the foot pedals,
or the transmission levers. Do not
place the device in front of or above
any airbag. (See diagram.)
◦ Do not place an unsecured

device on the vehicle dashboard.
◦ Do not mount where the driver's
field of vision is blocked.
◦ Do not mount in front of an
airbag field of deployment.
• The windshield mount may not
stay attached to the windshield in
all circumstances. Do not place
the mount where it will become
a distraction if the mount should
become detached. Keep your
windshield clean to help ensure that
the mount stays on the windshield.
• Always use your best judgement,
and operate the vehicle in a safe
manner. Do not become distracted
by the device while driving,
and always be fully aware of all
driving conditions. Minimize the
