Mounting Your GoPro
USING THE ADHESIVE MOUNTS
Follow these guidelines when attaching adhesive mounts to helmets,
vehicles, and gear:
• Attach mounts at least 24 hours before you use them.
• Only attach the mounts to smooth surfaces. They won’t stick
properly to porous or textured surfaces.
• Firmly press mounts into place. Be sure the adhesive is in full contact
with the surface.
• Only use on clean, dry surfaces. Wax, oil, dirt, or other debris will
weaken the bond, and you could lose your camera.
• Attach mounts in dry, room-temperature conditions. They won’t stick
properly in cold or damp environments or on cold or damp surfaces.
• Check state and local regulations and laws to ensure that attaching
a camera to equipment (such as hunting gear) is permitted. Always
comply with regulations that restrict the use of consumer electronics
or cameras.
WARNING: To avoid injury, do not use a tether when mounting
your camera on a helmet. Do not mount the camera directly on
skis or snowboards.

Mounting Your GoPro
WARNING: Always use a helmet that meets applicable safety standards if
you’re using a GoPro helmet mount or strap.
Choose the right helmet for your sport or activity, and make sure that it’s the
right size and fit for you. Check to see that your helmet’s in good condition,
and always follow the manufacturer’s instructions on safe use.
Replace any helmet that’s been subjected to a major impact. No helmet can
protect against injury in every accident. Be safe.
USING YOUR GOPRO IN + AROUND WATER
Your GoPro is waterproof to 33ft (10m) with the door locked. You won’t
need an additional housing before diving in.
Although you cannot use the GoPro Quik app to adjust modes and
settings under water, you can use the camera’s buttons to navigate the
menus when you’re submerged. To learn more, see
PRO TIP:
Use a camera tether and a Floaty (sold separately) to keep
your camera afloat in case it detaches from the mount. The Handler
(Floating Hand Grip) was also made to keep your GoPro afloat.
