Installation
For best results mount the Evolution onto the vehicles windscreen,
although it can be mounted on the dashboard with the hook and loop
fastener.
When installing your Snooper Evolution please ensure that:
•
The unit, with its built in GPS antenna has a clear view of the sky*
•
It is located in a position where you can easily view the LED text display
without having to take your eyes too far from the road ahead and that
you can reach the controls safely.
•
Does not interfere with the vehicles controls
•
Does not jeopardise the drivers or passengers safety
•
You will be able to remove the device to perform downloads.
*Please Note: Some vehicles including Renault, Citroen and Peugeot may
come with a ‘Heat Reflective’, ‘Metal Oxide’ or ‘Comfort’ windscreen which
may affect the performance of the built in GPS antenna. If you are unsure
what type of windscreen is fitted to your vehicle then contact your local
vehicle dealer or manufacturer for further information. In these situations
you will need to purchase a re-radiating antenna, which can be positioned
either on the rear parcel shelf or outside the cabin of the vehicle.
Once you have found a suitable location for your Evolution secure it in
place by using either the suction cup windscreen bracket provided or the
‘Hook and Loop’ fastener. More detailed installation instructions follow.
PLEASE NOTE: Be careful to choose a location that does not block the
drivers view or where it might endanger the driver or passengers should
your vehicle suddenly come to a stop or be involved in an accident.

DO NOT leave the unit on the mounting bracket when the car is
stationary during hot conditions. Exposing the Evolution to extremely
high temperatures can temporarily impair performance. Keep the
Evolution out of sight when not in use to help avoid potential theft.
