Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your andobil Car Phone Holder, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning the Suction Cup: If the suction cup loses its stickiness, rinse it with warm water and let it air dry. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• General Cleaning: Wipe the holder with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and grime. Avoid excessive moisture.
• Temperature Exposure: While designed for a wide temperature range (44°F to 195°F), avoid prolonged exposure to extreme heat or cold when not in use to preserve material integrity.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your andobil Car Phone Holder, please refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Holder not sticking to the surface:
  • Ensure the surface (windshield or dashboard) is clean, dry, and free of dust or oils.
  • If using the dashboard pad, ensure it has had sufficient time to adhere to the dashboard (24 hours recommended).
  • Rinse the suction cup with warm water and air dry to restore stickiness.
• Phone not held securely:
  • Ensure the clamping arms are fully closed around your phone. Gently press them inward after placing the phone.
  • Check if your phone case is excessively thick or has a PopSocket, as these may affect secure gripping. (Note: Not compatible with PopSockets phone cases).
• Holder wobbles or moves:
