Temporary Mounting, Vacuum-Magnet Mount:
The Vacuum-Magnet Mount feature includes a suction
cup on the bottom of the beacon, with a magnet inside
of the suction cup, for a secure, temporary mount. The
beacon should be placed in the center of the roof where
the least amount of curvature occurs. Before installing,
make sure the mounting surface is clean and there is
no debris on the bottom of the beacon or on the roof
of the vehicle, which could reduce the holding power
of the suction cup and magnet. Place and remove the
beacon without sliding to avoid scratching the paint on
the vehicle. After placement, the beacon should adhere
firmly to the surface. If the unit slides or moves easily, a
proper installation has not been obtained. To release the
vacuum, lift the tab to release the airlock (see Figure 2).
To protect the Vacuum-Magnet Mount assembly, return
beacon to the box when not in use. Do not attempt to
attach the beacon to an ice-covered surface.
