Blackspot Interactive Road Angel User Manual page 4

Setting Up
1. Remove ROAD ANGEL from its packaging.
2. Place the non-slip mat into the locating clips on the base of the
ROAD ANGEL.
3. Plug your choice of power lead into the back of the unit.
4. Plan the location of your ROAD ANGEL:
• towards the centre of the dashboard in the driver's line of sight
• with a clear view of the sky through the windscreen
• where the power wire can be comfortably connected to the
cigarette lighter socket (the unit may also be hardwired via a
fused ignition live)
• where it does not interfere with any vehicle controls
CAUTION: Do NOT place your unit on an airbag panel.
5. Park your vehicle outside with a clear view of the sky through
your windscreen and clear of obstacles such as tall buildings and
overhanging trees. Obstacles may delay or prevent satellite
acquisition.
6. Plug the power lead into the cigarette lighter socket. If your
socket is ignition wired you will need to turn the ignition to on.
The unit will beep and then the display will light up red and self
test all LCD segments.The display will then turn green with 3
dashes and MPH illuminated.
Note: The vehicle must be in the open air (not in a garage). The very first time
the unit is switched on (cold start) it must acquire a minimum of 3 satellites
to establish its position. THIS MAY TAKE UP TO 45 MINS. After approximately
4 hours use the internal battery will be charged sufficiently to memorise its
position and subsequent starts will acquire satellites within 15-30 seconds.
