Guardian Field Support Manual – Section 2

Mounting Location:
You must check the regulations of the
country where the vehicle will be
operating to ensure that you are
complying with mounting to
windscreens. Restrictions may vary from
country to country.
If possible, the FFC is to be mounted within
the ‘swept area’ of the windscreen. The
swept area is where the wipers clean the
winscreen. This will ensure that the FFC
has a clear view through the windscreen.
The preferred position is in the center of the
windscreen, mounted so that it does not
interfere with the driver’s vision of the
forward roadway.
The FFC “Guardian” logo must be able to be
read correctly to ensure the footage is not
captured upside down. The Guardian logo
should not be upside down.
Clean the surface with the supplied alcohol
wipes prior to mounting.
For installations in hot or humid
environments, it is recommended that either
Primer 94 or Primer UV (not provided by
SM) is applied to the FFC mounting foot
before applying the 3M tape.
Types of Mounting:
For a vehicle with a bonnet, the FFC should
be mounted in the center top section of the
windscreen.
For a vehicle without a bonnet, the FFC
should be mounted in the center bottom
section of the windscreen.
