Securing the mount to the vehicle
Because securing the mount to a vehicle's dashboard is subject to many variables and because
installers are expected to have previous experience with this process, these instructions do not
include specific steps for this process. However, see the tips below for additional information.
Helpful tips
Before securing the mount to the dashboard, find the optimal spot for the
tablet, tablet dock, and mount to be positioned. The best location will be
one that does not allow the tablet to block the driver's view of the road or
interfere with the safe and standard operation of the vehicle. Keep in mind
the mount is adjustable.
To get an accurate estimation of how the tablet dock and mount will be
positioned, it might be helpful to attach the tablet dock to the mount
temporarily. If this is done, unscrew the mount and dock before installing
the mount on the dashboard for ease of installation.
Screwing the mount into the dashboard will require drilling through the
dashboard or dash plate first to establish screw-in points for the mount.
Use proper equipment, safety, and sense to avoid damaging any wiring or
equipment in and around the dashboard.
Because all vehicles differ, the screws and washers required for securing
the mount to the vehicle's dash are not included with the kit, and the
installer will need to choose screws and washers that best fit the vehicle
and mount.
