GDR E530/E560

 

The metal disc remains attached to the windshield.

Using your finger, press firmly on the disc for 30 
seconds.

 

This helps to ensure the disc adhesive has proper 
contact with the windshield.

Wait 

24 hours 

before installing the GDR device.

 

It takes 24 hours for the adhesive to bond properly 
to the windshield.

Installing and Setting Up the GDR device

CAUTION: 

Before installing the GDR device, you must 

install the mount and allow the adhesive to bond to 
the windshield for 

24 hours

. Failure to allow adequate 

bonding time may cause the mount to detach from 
the windshield, which could result in damage to the 
product or mount.

Place the camera and mount onto the metal disc.

Plug the vehicle power cable into the USB port on 
the device.

Route the power cable to your vehicle’s power outlet.

 

The included vehicle power cable is designed to 
be routed out of sight. It is long enough to route 
around the windshield in most vehicles, and you 
can hide the thin cable along or behind the trim or 
headliner.

Plug the other end of the vehicle power cable into a 
power outlet in your vehicle.

If necessary, turn on the vehicle ignition switch to 
provide power to the power outlet in your vehicle. 
The device turns on.

Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the 
initial device setup. 
The camera view appears.

Adjust the position of the camera to capture the 
desired field of view.

You can mount the device in the left, center, or right
