WARNING! DO NOT attempt to install this Vehicle Kit while driving. Park your
vehicle in a safe location before beginning installation.
Step 1: Choose a Location for Your Radio
When installing the PowerConnect Vehicle Dock in your vehicle, choose a
location where it will not block your vision, interfere with the controls, or
obstruct the air bag. The location should be easily accessible and provide
good visibility of the display, and should not be located where it may be in
direct sunlight, which will affect the visibility of the display screen.
Depending on your preference, you can either choose to use the Dash
Mount or the Vent Mount. On the following two pages, several examples
of the PowerConnect Vehicle Dock and Radio mounted in a vehicle are
shown: Ais the on dash method using the Dash Mount, and Bis the vent
clip method using the Vent Mount. You may want to read the installation
instructions for each type of mount in step 2 to help you select which
mount you will use.
NOTE: Your Radio may be a different model than the Radio shown here.
