Using the Vehicle Bracket
The included vehicle bracket set can be securely mounted on the front

adhesive plate. This device will effectively secure the GPS unit in the

holes to secure.
2. Gently push down until the unit is tightly fixed with the bracket.
3. Bend the bracket support to a proper angle. Securely mount the
vehicle bracket to the windshield, ensuring its base is resting firmly
on the dashboard.
Note: Please note the directions of the arrows. When secured, the
assembly should be tight. If these directions are not followed, a loose fit
will result, and components must be reassembled.
4. Follow the directions, insert the bracket into the slots on the bracket,
and slide to fix the set (A

When using the in-vehicle secure bracket, do not install it in a
location that will block the view of the driver
Recommended installation requirements:
The bracket base should rest securely on the dashboard to prevent
excessive shock.

long periods of usage.
