Mounting Considerations

Before you mount the device on your windshield, you should carefully consider the mounting location. The adhesive is extremely sticky, can be difficult to remove, and is not reusable. One extra adhesive pad is included in the product packaging. You should keep it in a safe place so that you can use it if you decide to change the mounting location in the future.

  • Choose a location that allows you to route the power cable safely and out of sight.
    WARNING

    When installing the device in a vehicle, install the device and power cable securely so they do not interfere with the vehicle operating controls, such as the foot pedals, or the driver's feet. Interference with the vehicle operating controls or feet can result in a collision, which could result in injury or death.

    The included long, lightweight power cable is designed to be routed out of sight. To hide the cable, you can route it around the windshield and tuck it into the gap between the windshield and the trim.

  • Do not mount the device in a location that obscures the driver's view of the road.
  • Choose a location that is within easy reach and provides access to the device buttons.
  • Choose a location that allows the device to clearly hear your voice.

    For example, you should avoid placing the device near a speaker or air vent, which can introduce noise that interferes with the microphones. Also, placing the device in a central location, such as near the rear-view mirror, allows the device to hear both the driver and the passenger.

  • Thoroughly clean the windshield before installing the mount.
