PNI RX5000 - Installing the Rx5000; Mounting Guidelines; Windshield Mounting

The RX5000 can be mounted on your windshield using the
bracket provided, or on the dashboard using the hook and
loop fastener strips.
Mounting guidelines
• Mount on the windshield or dashboard in a centered loca-
tion that will not obstruct the view of the driver and is
within reach so the buttons can be easily accessed.
• Do not mount behind windshield wipers, metal surfaces,
ornaments, or mirrored sunscreen glass, as these affect
radar/laser signals. Tinted glass does not affect radar/laser
signal reception.
• Do not mount close to strong stereo speakers, as this
affects compass accuracy.
Note: Heated windshields (such as Electriclear™ by Ford,
or Instaclear™ by GM) will act as a barrier to radar and
laser signals. Check your vehicle’s owner’s manual to see
if your vehicle is equipped with a heated windshield.
Tip: Conceal the RX5000 when you leave your vehicle
to prevent theft and to minimize the unit’s exposure to
extreme temperatures, which can temporarily impair per-
formance.
Windshield mounting
1. Install the suction cups onto the windshield mounting
bracket by sliding them into their holes (if not pre-
installed).
2. Press the bracket base rmly against the windshield, until
the suction cups securely take hold.
