"AIRBAG
FRIENDLY " and "AIRBAG COMPATIBLE"
Much
has been discussed, advertised and promoted regarding the compatibility
between installation systems (mounting hardware) for mobile communications
equipment and the "airbag deployment zones" in automobiles.
Although many hardware manufacturers promote their products as being "airbag
friendly" or "airbag compatible" the ultimate responsibility
lies with the installer and/or end-user.
Any combination of installation hardware and mobile communication equipment
that is not installed and positioned properly within the suggested dimensional
parameters as defined by the vehicle manufacturer could potentially interfere
with the deployment of the airbag(s). As a hardware manufacturer, Interactive
Products Corporation can make suggestions and recommendations for the
correct positioning and installation of our mounting systems. However,
Interactive Products Corporation cannot control the ultimate placement
and/or quality of the installation; nor can we control the type, size,
style or placement of mobile communication equipment which the end-user
chooses to mount onto, or with our products.
Manufacturers of public safety and law enforcement automobiles have provided,
over the past few years, detailed information regarding the "airbag
deployment zone(s)" in their specific vehicles. In printed material
and via videotapes, car manufacturers have outlined and illustrated the
area within each vehicle that is considered a safe zone for installing
mobile communications equipment.
Note: Although airbag templates are available to assist in positioning
equipment, they may not give you an exact image of the actual "deployment
zone" of a rapidly inflating airbag. We strongly suggest you supplement
the use of templates with the information provided by the vehicle manufacturer
for a more accurate representation of available installation space.
~~~
WARNING ~~~
Do
not install the mount system or position the equipment in the deployment
path of an airbag. In the event of airbag deployment, mounting systems
and/or equipment located within the airbag deployment zones can damage
the airbag, prevent proper airbag inflation and/or become projectiles
which could potentially cause personal injury or death. To determine airbag
deployment zones and the area recommended for equipment installation,
refer to vehicle manufacturer's manual. Interactive Products Corporation
makes no warranties except for intended use and will not be held liable
or responsible for any loss or damage, whether direct, indirect, incidental,
special or consequential arising from the sale, use or misuse of Interactive
Products Corporation products or the user's inability to use such products.

- Loosen
seat bolt and insert fork bracket (19-1) under seat track
or seat bolt (Under seat track is most desirable, but if this
is not possible, under seat bolt is sufficient). Re-tighten
seat bolt.
- Attach
hex stock (19-2) to fork bracket using three-prong
knob (21) or 5/16-18 set screw (26). Choose the hole
on the fork bracket that prevents three-prong knob from interfering
with vehicle seat. If knob causes a conflict with the seat position,
use the 5/16-18 set screw in place of the three-prong knob.
NOTE:
Make sure grooved portion of hex stock is lined up perfectly
with the hole in the fork bracket so that the knob seats
completely. If this is not done correctly, the hex stock
may become deformed, which will cause it to get stuck in
the fork bracket.
-
Attach
flat plate (19-3) underneath hex stock using 1/4-20
button head bolts (18-1) and 1/4-20 kep nuts (15-1).
Use hex key (22-1) to tighten. Make sure button head
bolts are tightened completely.
-
Make
sure flat plate is as close to the vehicle floor as possible.
This allows you to screw swivel gliders (20) toward
floor, and receive back pressure against seat track or seat
bolt. This will substantially stabilize your laptop stand.
Flat plate can have a downward slope toward vehicle floor.
This will also help you receive more back pressure with
the swivel gliders for added stability.
-
Screw
two of the 3/8-16 kep nuts (15-2) onto swivel gliders
with washer facing up. Insert swivel gliders into flat plate
from the bottom. Screw the last two 3/8-16 kep nuts onto
swivel gliders with washer facing down toward flat plate.
Use wrench to hold bottom kep nut in place while using a
flat-head screwdriver to screw swivel gliders toward vehicle
floor. Once flat plate is rigid, tighten the top and bottom
kep nuts so swivel gliders are locked in place.
-
You
are now ready to install your pedestal to the No-Drill base.
