Getting Started WARNINGSee the Important Safety and Product Information guide in the product box for product warnings and other important information.Mounting ConsiderationsBefore you mount the device on your windshield, you should carefully consider the mounting location. The adhesive is extremely sticky, can be difficult to remove, and is not reusable. One extra adhesive pad is included in the product packaging. You should keep it in a safe place so that you can use it if you decide to change the mounting location in the future.• Choose a location that allows you to route the power cable safely and out of sight. WARNINGWhen installing the device in a vehicle, install the device and power cable securely so they do not interfere with the vehicle operating controls, such as the foot pedals, or the driver's feet. Interference with the vehicle operating controls or feet can result in a collision, which could result in injury or death.The included long, lightweight power cable is designed to be routed out of sight. To hide the cable, you can route it around the windshield and tuck it into the gap between the windshield and the trim.• Do not mount the device in a location that obscures the driver's view of the road.• Choose a location that is within easy reach and provides access to the device buttons.• Choose a location that allows the device to clearly hear your voice.For example, you should avoid placing the device near a speaker or air vent, which can introduce noise that interferes with the microphones. Also, placing the device in a central location, such as near the rear-view mirror, allows the device to hear both the driver and the passenger.• Thoroughly clean the windshield before installing the mount.Installing the Adhesive Disc onto Your WindshieldNOTICEThe adhesive disc is difficult to remove after it is installed. You must carefully consider the mounting location before you install the mount (Mounting Considerations, page 1).For the best results, you should install the adhesive disc onto your windshield while the ambient temperature is from 21° to 38°C (from 70° to 100°F).1Clean the windshield using water or alcohol, and a lint-free cloth.The windshield must be free of dust, wax, oils, or coatings.2Remove the protective film from the mount adhesive.3Position the mount over the mounting location.TIP: The adhesive is extremely sticky. Do not touch the adhesive to the windshield until the mount is properly positioned and aligned.4Press the mount firmly onto the windshield, and maintain pressure for 30 seconds.5Pull the camera and mount away from the windshield.The metal adhesive disc remains attached to the windshield.6Using your finger, press firmly on the disc for 30 seconds.This helps to ensure the disc adhesive has proper contact with the windshield.For the best results, especially in low temperature environments, you should allow the adhesive on the metal disc to bond to the windshield for 24 hours before installing the device onto the mount. Failure to allow adequate bonding time may cause the adhesive to detach from the windshield.Installing and Powering the Garmin Speak DeviceNOTE: For the best results, especially in low temperature environments, you should allow the adhesive on the metal disc to bond to the windshield for 24 hours before installing the device onto the mount. Failure to allow adequate bonding time may cause the adhesive to detach from the windshield.1Place the device and mount onto the metal disc.2Plug the power cable into the USB port on the device.3Route the power cable to your vehicle power outlet.The included long, lightweight power cable is designed to be routed out of sight.
