batteries to prevent damage from battery corrosion.
zIn case the battery leaks, clean the liquid and install new batteries.
NOTE:
zAfter replacing the batteries, you need to press the power button for five seconds to turn
on your device. (See the following section for more information.)
zDepending on the characteristics of different battery types, the length of operation time
might differ from one to the other.

A car holder and an in-car power cable are supplied with your device.
Using the Car Holder
CAUTION:
zSelect an appropriate location for the car holder. Never place the holder where the
driver’s field of vision is blocked.
zIf the car’s windshield has window tint, it is recommended that you use a car antenna
(optional) to route the antenna to the top of the car through the window. When closing
the car window, be careful not to pinch the antenna. (For a car with the anti-jam design,
the window will automatically leave space.)
Use the car holder to fix the device near the windshield.
Connecting the In-Car Power Cable
The in-car power cable supplies power to your device when you are using the
device in a car.
CAUTION:
zTo protect your device against sudden surges in current, connect the in-car power cable
only after the car engine has been started.
zIf you are using the rechargeable batteries, connecting to the in-car power cannot
provide power to your batteries.
