Positioning the device
Be careful where you install your Rider. The Rider shouldn't block or interfere with any of the
following:
Your view of the road.
The controls in your vehicle.
Your rear-view mirrors.
The airbags.
You should be able to reach your Rider easily without leaning or stretching. In a car, you can attach
your Rider to the windscreen or side window or you can use a Dashboard Mount Disk to attach the
mount to your dashboard.

areas where the use of mobile telephones is prohibited, such as hospitals and aircraft.
