EN-4 GTM 11 Owner’s Manual
To mount the GTM 11 with the hook-and-loop fastener:
1. Clean and dry a section of the A-pillar or other suitable mounting
surface.
2. Remove the backing from the back of the loop material.
3. Firmly press the loop material to the mounting surface.
4. Remove the backing from the back of the hook material.
5. Firmly press the hook material to the back of the GTM 11.
Attach the hook material here.
6. Position the GTM 11 so the antenna is pointing up, and attach the
hook material on the GTM 11 to the loop material on the mounting
surface.
Routing the Cable
Route the GTM 11 cable so that it does not interfere with vehicle operating
controls. If the cable is not long enough, a 2-meter extension cable is
available from your Garmin dealer or at www.garmin.com/products/gtm11.
Notes about the Hook-and-Loop
If you use the hook-and-loop fastener to attach your GTM 11 to the A-
pillar, you can also install a strip of loop material on the A-pillar of another
vehicle. This allows your GTM 11 to be completely portable.
Notes about the Wire Antenna
Use the wire antenna instead of the whip antenna if either of the following
is true:
• The whip antenna does not get an adequate signal strength.
• You wish to hide the GTM 11, perhaps in the glove compartment or
under the dash.
If you use the wire antenna, you should route the wire along the A-pillar
and around the windscreen. The wire can be tucked under the plastic of the
A-pillar and under the head-liner to hide it. The GTM 11 can also be hidden
from view when the wire antenna is used.
If necessary, shorten the wire antenna by cutting the excess wire using
scissors.
