In certain areas where there is a high magnetic
field or the earth's magnetic field deviates from true north,
the compass may give an inaccurate reading.
Examples of places and objects that have high magnetic fields:
Under steel bridges
Railway crossings
Under high voltage wires
Broadcasting antenna
Electrical generator plants
Near electrical substations |
 |
It is possible that a windshield wiper motor may
affect the direction indicated by the compass. If this occurs,
move the compass to a different location on the dashboard. |
 |
When using adhesive tape to attach components
of the Field Compass, make sure to clean all surfaces free of
dirt, oil, water etc. Attach all components securely so they
will not come loose during driving. |
 |
Some vehicle models, due to their structure, will
not display the temperature correctly. |

HOW TO ATTACH THE COMPASS
SENSOR
|
This product includes a magnetic sensor. If the
sensor is not placed horizontally in a location where there is no
magnetic interference, it will not give accurate readings. Please
consider the following when attaching the compass sensor.
| 1. |
Install it on the dashboard where the surface
is no more than 5" from horizontal. |
 |
| 2. |
Place the compass sensor so that it points
towards the front of the car. |
| 3. |
Do not place magnets, TV, radio antenna, speakers
or metal objects near the sensor. |
|
|
HOW TO ATTACH THE DISPLAY
UNIT
|
| 1. |
Gently slide the display unit onto the stand
until engaged. |
 |
| 2. |
Cut and attach the adhesive tape to the stand.
Place the stand within 5 in. of the front windshield, where
the display is visible. The remaining tape will be used to attach
the control unit and external temperature sensor. |
| |
If the any of the fittings or screws on the product
come loose, please tighten them gently. Using too much force
may cause damage to the unit.
In hot weather where the unit is exposed to direct sunlight,
cover it with a white cloth for protection. |
The company is not responsible for any damage
to the vehicle arising from the use on application of the display
film on windshield.
Please note that the laws of certain states prohibit applications
of materials to a vehicle windshield other than in certain locations.
For example, California Vehicle Code Section 26708(b) limits
application of stickers or other materials to a 5-inch square
area in the lower corner of the windshield nearest the driver.
On certain vehicle models, installation of the transparent
film in such a location may be impractical, because limited
clearance between the dashboard and the windshield may preclude
attachment of the display unit to the dashboard at a position
that will enable the driver effectively to view the reflection
of the instrument display on the transparent film.
Please consult the laws of the jurisdiction in which you
intend to operate your vehicle to determine whether similar
laws or regulations would apply to you and if so, please examine
the relative configuration of you dashboard and windshield
to determine whether installation of the display unit as described
in the installation manual will conform to requirements of
local law.
Nippon Seiki Co.,Ltd., does not encourage installation of
the products in violation of local laws or regulations and
shall not be responsible for failure to obey local laws or
regulations.

HOW TO ATTACH THE DISPLAY
FILM
|
| 1. |
Before attaching the display film,
clean the inside of the windshield. |
 |
| 2. |
To separate the film
from the backing paper, attach adhesive tape to film and the
backing paper about 2cm(4/5 in.) from the edge of the film and
use the adhesive tape to pull the display film from its backing. |
| 3. |
Spray a mixture of water and mild detergent(1 to 2 the drops)
on the windshield and on the side of the film to be applied
to the windshield.
Apply the film to the windshield. Gently squeeze out excess
any water or air bubbles from under the film and gently wipe
any extra water away with a tissue or soft cloth. Do not scratch
the film with the tissue or cloth.
|
|
|
HOW TO ATTACH THE EXTERNAL
TEMPERATURE SENSOR
|
Cut a portion of the adhesive tape and use it
to attach the sensor in a location where it is protected from
direct sunlight and moisture.
Example, near the hinges on the door. (See diagram)
If the sensor is to be attached in the opening between the door
and the body of the vehicle, make sure that the sensor wiring
is not cut when the door is closed.
The space around the door hinges is usually dirty. Make sure
to clean the surface where the sensor is to be installed. |
