First things first
Set up the Acer d100 series on your vehicle
The Acer d100 series comes with a car mount kit and a car charger with
which you can set up your device on your vehicle. You can choose to
position the car mount kit on the windshield using the suction cup, or on the
dashboard using the self-adhesive power disc connector.
Car mount installation reminders
Install the car mount on the surface of your vehicle:
•
That is smooth, flat and free of dirt and oil
•
Where the driver can easily view/reach it without taking his/her eyes off
too far from the road
•
Where the device will not obscure car controls nor restrict the driver's view
of the road
•
Far from the air bag deployment area
To set up the device on your vehicle:
This section shows how to install the car mount kit in your vehicle's windshield
using the suction cup. For dashboard installation procedures using the
self-adhesive power disc connector refer to the Acer d100 series Portable
Navigator Starter Guide.
1. Clean the mounting surface with a glass cleaner and a clean cotton cloth.
2. If the ambient temperature is below +15°C (60°F) warm the mounting area
and the suction cup (e.g. with a hair dryer) to ensure a strong suction
bond.

Some countries prohibit the mounting of any electronic device in any location on the
vehicle dashboard. Be sure to check your local laws for acceptable mounting areas
before installing the car mount bracket.
Some newer vehicle models may have a heat reflective shield embedded in the
windshield. This may in some cases obstruct the GPS signal reception. If you encounter
this problem in your vehicle, you need to purchase an external GPS antenna. For more
information, contact your local Acer dealer.
