To attach the Active Dock, press the suction cup firmly against the windscreen on an area where the glass is flat.
3. Safety Safety Positioning the Active Dock Consider carefully where to attach the dock in your car. The dock should not block or interfere with any of the following: • Your view of the road • Any of the controls in your car • Any of your mirrors • The airbag When your navigation device is in the dock, you should be able to reach the device easily without leaning or stretching. The diagrams show where you can safely attach the dock.
