AMN101

The AMN101 can be used with an Advent navigation-ready DVD unit (AMM10, AMM12).

•

Do not install components in areas which are susceptible to rain, moisture, direct sunlight, 

extreme heat or cold, excessive dust, dirt or humidity.

•

Do not install the AMN101 where it will obstruct the driver’s view or interfere with the 

vehicle’s operating system or safety features (air bags, hazard light buttons, etc.).

•

Use only installation parts and hardware provided with the unit. Use of other parts can 

cause malfunction and possible damage to your navigation system.

•

This product should only be installed in vehicles with a 12-volt battery with negative 

grounding. Check the battery voltage of your vehicle before installation.

•

To avoid shorts in the electrical system, be sure to disconnect the negative (–) battery 

cable before beginning installation.

The AMN101 should be installed under the back or front seat. It can also be installed in the 

trunk, if necessary. Do not install the AMN101 where it will come in contact with water or direct 

sunlight. Mount the supplied brackets to the AMN101 using the 4mm (.25in) screws provided.

Since the AMN101 uses GPS technology for navigation, proper antenna placement is crucial 

for optimal performance of the GPS receiver. When using GPS antennas, the antenna plane 

should be parallel to the geographic horizon. There should be nothing between the antenna 

and the sky to ensure a direct line-of-sight between the antenna and available satellites.
The preferred antenna location is on the top of the car on the roof or trunk area. When placed 

on the dashboard, performance may be reduced due to obstruction caused by the window or 

roof.
