Installing the Mount onto Your Windshield

NOTICE

The adhesive mount is extremely difficult to remove after it is installed. You should carefully consider the mounting location before you install the mount.

Before you can install the adhesive mount onto your windshield, the ambient temperature must be from 21° to 38°C (from 70° to 100°F).

TIP: You can connect the device to power and hold the device in the preferred mounting location to check the camera's field of view at that location.
  1. Clean the windshield using water or alcohol, and a lint-free cloth.

    The windshield must be free of dust, wax, oils, or coatings.

  2. Remove the protective film from the mount adhesive.

    TIP: The adhesive is extremely sticky. Do not touch the adhesive to the windshield until the mount is properly positioned and aligned.
  4. Press the mount firmly onto the windshield, and maintain pressure for 30 seconds.

    The metal disc remains attached to the windshield.

  6. Using your finger, press firmly on the disc for 30 seconds.

    This helps to ensure the disc adhesive has proper contact with the windshield.

  7. Wait 24 hours before installing the Garmin Dash Cam™ .

    It takes 24 hours for the adhesive to bond properly to the windshield.
