Trusted Transportation SolutionsPocketPass™Installation Instructions16-0046-001 Rev D 10/16PocketPass is designed for mounting to a vehicle's interior windshield surface using 3M™ Dual Lock™ strips. This mounting method provides for easy mounting and removal when portability is needed.General Instructions and GuidelinesProper Handling Prior to InstallationIMPORTANT: Prior to installation by the end user, PocketPass should be stored in the shielded bags and/or packaging provided by TransCore. Failure to properly store tags will result in shortened battery life. Metallized WindshieldSome vehicle windshields contain a metallic treatment that could prevent an interior windshield-mounted device from working correctly. If you have a vehicle with a metalized windshield, contact your local customer service center for more information. If your vehicle’s metalized windshield has a metal-free zone, it is typically located near the rear view mirror.Windshield BandSome windshields have a solid or dotted black frit band around the edges of the windshield. The frit band protects the windshield mounting materials from the sun and ultra-violet rays. The PocketPass may be placed behind this band if necessary without aecting tag performance.Figure 1 – Windshield frit band
