mount

Installing the external GPS
antenna (Optional)
This unit has a built-in GPS antenna to
receive the satellite signals.
The external GPS antenna is sold separately
and will improve the reception from the satel-
lites for cars with a heat reflective windscreen.
To install the antenna:
1.
Select the place to attach the external
GPS antenna.
2.
Plug the jack of the GPS antenna into the
socket on the rear of the navigation unit.
Installation of the external antenna
inside the vehicle
Attach the external antenna onto a surface
which is as level as possible, has line of sight
with the sky and can be secured safely with
the double sided tape.
Note
• Make sure the surface is free of moisture,
dust, grime, oil, etc., before affixing the dou-
ble sided tape.
• The double-sided tape contains a strong
adhesive and may leave a mark on the
dashboard if removed.
• Some vehicles use window glass that does
not allow signals from GPS satellites to
pass through. On such vehicles, install the
GPS antenna on the outside of the vehicle.
Installation of the external antenna
outside the vehicle
Place the external GPS antenna in a position
as level as possible, such as on the roof or
boot. (The GPS antenna is attached with a
magnet.)
When routing the lead in from the top
of the door
Make a U-shaped loop in the lead on the out-
side to prevent rainwater from flowing along
the lead into the interior of the vehicle.
(The GPS antenna is attached with a mag-
net.)
