Installing the M-Nav 900/950 in a Vehicle
Refer to the Garmin manual for instructions on assembling the docking cradle and windscreen mount, and
installing the unit in the vehicle.
3.1
Attaching the Docking Cradle to the Windshield
NOTE: Some windshields contain areas of tinted glass that may interfere with the GPS signal. Do not
mount the M-Nav 900/950 in these areas.
Read the Important Safety Information in
Section 1.1
.
1. Connect the magnetic mount to the suction cup by firmly pressing the socket on the mount of the
ball on the suction cup arm.
2. Decide where to locate the suction mount on the windshield. Use an alcohol swab to thoroughly
clean that area of the windshield, then dry the area with a soft, lint-free cloth.
3. Press the suction cup firmly against the windshield for 3 seconds.
4. Push the lever down to vacuum-seal the suction cup to the windshield.
Now you are ready to add the M-Nav 900/950 to the docking cradle (see
Section 3.2
).
3.2
Adding the M-Nav 900/950 to the Docking Cradle
The M-Nav 900/950 attaches magnetically to the cradle. Simply align the unit with the cradle in the center
of the back face and when the M-Nav and cradle are close enough, the magnets will snap the two together.
The magnets are positioned to prevent the M-Nav being attached in the wrong position. If you feel
resistance, check that the cradle is correctly oriented (the word “Garmin” should appear the right way up)
and the M-Nav is in landscape orientation (also with the word “Garmin” should appear the right way up).
NOTE: The M-Nav 900/950 will charge only when connected to a Qube tracking device in a standard
vehicle installation, or when using an AC adaptor supply. It will not charge effectively when connected to a
standard USB connection through a PC or similar and powered on.
IMPORTANT:
The M-Nav 900/950 must be in the docking cradle and connected to the Qube tracking
device in order for you to report your driver status, send and receive messages, and otherwise
communicate with your fleet administrator through the OnlineAVL2 application.
The start-up screen will display automatically (see
Section 4
).
Use the adjustment knobs on the docking cradle to change the viewing angle and the tilt angle, if
necessary, to give a comfortable viewing position.
