Installing the Adhesive Disc onto Your Windshield

NOTICE

The adhesive disc is difficult to remove after it is installed. You must carefully consider the mounting location before you install the mount (Mounting Considerations).

For the best results, you should install the adhesive disc onto your windshield while the ambient temperature is from 21° to 38°C (from 70° to 100°F).

  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.

  3. Position the mount over the mounting location.
    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.

  5. Pull the device and mount away from the windshield.

    The metal adhesive 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.

For the best results, especially in low temperature environments, you should allow the adhesive on the metal disc to bond to the windshield for 24 hours before installing the device onto the mount. Failure to allow adequate bonding time may cause the adhesive to detach from the windshield.
