1.4  Using Your Device in a Vehicle 

Using the Device Holder 

 

Select an appropriate location for the device holder. Never place the holder where the 

driver’s field of vision is blocked. 

 

If the car’s windshield is tinted with a reflective coating, an external antenna (optional) may 

be needed to route the antenna to the top of the car through a window. When closing the 

car window, be careful not to pinch the antenna cable. (Cars with an anti-jam window 

design may automatically leave adequate space as needed.) 

 

Use the device holder to mount your device in a vehicle. Make sure that the GPS 
antenna has a clear view of the sky. (See the Quick Start Guide supplied with the 
device for the installation instruction.) 

NOTE: Depending upon the specific model purchased, the device holder supplied with your 

device may not look exactly the same as the picture shown. 

 

Connecting the In-Car Charger 

The in-car charger supplies power to your device when you are using the device in 
a car.  

CAUTION: To protect your device against sudden surges in current, connect the in-car 

charger only after the car engine has started. 

 

1.  Connect one end of the in-car charger 

to the power connector of your device.

2.  Connect the other end to the 12-volt 

cigarette lighter or power port to 
power and charge your device. The 
indicator light on the in-car charger 
lights in green to indicate that power is 
being supplied to your device.
