5.1 MOUNTING PROCEDURE FOR INTERNAL ANTENNA DEVICES
When determining mounting location, the primary consideration is GPS satellite visibility. LMU-XXX have
internal antennas for both GPS and Cellular. The GPS antenna is located directly under the product label
side of the device. The required install orientation of the LMU-XXX is a horizontal mount, label side up.
Attach the LMU-XXX to the solid body of the vehicle not to plastic panels. Additionally, verify that any
metal is not covering or obstructing the LMU-XXX, allowing the device to have a clear sight with GPS
satellites. A typical location is under the vehicle dashboard close to the front windshield. For a stealth
installation, remove interior trim or molding to expose available space, and then replace the trim or
molding when the LMU-XXX is installed.

For proper mounting, ensure the mounting location is clean. Use a damp towel or alcohol clean wipes, if
necessary. Peel off adhesive and mount the LMU-XXX. If required, use a zip-tie to ensure a secure
mount.
Plan to route the wires to minimize exposure to damage. If wires are exposed, wrap them with plastic
protective cable wrap common to automotive applications. All wiring must be secured to complete the
installation.
Note: It is important that you do not mount the LMU-XXX above or near airbags.
