    • WARNING! Only use Geotab telematics devices with Geotab-approved harnesses acquired from Geotab-authorized channels. Use of non-Geotab harnesses from unauthorized channels can cause serious safety risks, including fire, and can lead to serious personal injury and/or damage to the vehicle.

    • IMPORTANT: Always use a vehicle-specific harness when offered by Geotab or the vehicle manufacturer to avoid possible GO device damage. Some vehicles have multiple diagnostic connectors to choose from when installing a GO device.

    • For more information on Geotab harnesses and adapters, see Harness Identification and Application & Harness Assessment Cheat Sheet GUIDE V2.0

    • If a longer length is required to facilitate installation, connect a straight harness to a T-harness. Ensure that the total harness length does not exceed 2 meters (or 6.5 feet). Any two harnesses that exceed 2 meters may compromise the integrity of the data and cause issues with the vehicle’s Engine Control Unit (ECU).

    • For more details on compliance information and applicable products, contact your Authorized Reseller.

    • This requires the use of a cable tie when securing the device or any extension harness to the OBD connector, securing both sides of the harness. If you do not use a cable tie, vibration in the vehicle can lead to a loose connection which could cause the vehicle’s engine computer to fail, causing potential loss of vehicle control and serious injury.

    • Inspect devices and cabling regularly to ensure all devices and cabling continue to be securely attached.

    • If at any point after an in-vehicle device is installed a warning light illuminates on the vehicle dash or the vehicle stalls or has a marked drop in performance, shut off the engine, remove the device, and contact your reseller. Continuing to operate a vehicle with these symptoms can cause loss of vehicle control, and serious injury.

    • Your in-vehicle devices must be kept clear of debris, water and other environmental contaminants. Failure to do so may result in units malfunctioning or short-circuiting, which can lead to a fire hazard and cause loss or serious injury.

    • Do not attempt to remove the devices from the vehicle in which they are originally installed for installation in another vehicle.

    • Not all vehicles share compatibility, and doing so may result in unexpected interactions with your vehicle, including sudden loss of power or shutdown of the vehicle’s engine while in operation or cause your vehicle to operate poorly or erratically and cause serious injury and/or vehicle damage.

    • This product does not contain any user-serviceable parts. Configuration, servicing, and repairs must only be made by an authorized reseller or installer. Unauthorized servicing of these products will void your product warranty.
