Setup and Installation

Air Vent Mount Installation

1. Attach Air Vent Clip: Press down on the spring-loaded clip of the air vent attachment. Slide the gap over one of your vehicle's air vent blades and release to secure.
2. Connect Charger to Clip: Place the threaded fastener over the neck of the ball joint on the air vent clip, with the threads facing outwards. Snap the cup portion of the MagSafe charger onto the ball joint until it clicks into place. Ensure the charging port on the MagSafe charger is facing downwards.
3. Tighten Fastener: Tighten the threaded fastener over the cup and ball joint to secure the charger in your desired position.

Windshield Suction Mount Installation

1. Prepare Surface: Thoroughly clean and dry the area on your windshield where you intend to install the mount.
2. Apply Sticky Pad: Remove the protective plastic from the flat back of the circular sticky pad. Press it firmly onto the cleaned windshield surface.
3. Prepare Suction Cup: Peel the protective plastic from the ringed portion of the sticky pad. Slightly loosen the arm joint on the suction cup mount and fold out the arm. Remove the protective plastic from the suction cup itself.
4. Attach Suction Cup: Align the suction cup with the ring indentation on the sticky pad. Press down firmly on the mount and flip the small lever at the base of the mount into the suction-locked position to secure it.
5. Adjust Arm: To extend or adjust the arm, loosen the knob, pull the arm to the desired length/angle, and re-tighten the knob.
6. Connect Charger to Arm: Attach the MagSafe charger portion to the ball joint on the adjustable arm using the same method as described for the Air Vent Mount (threaded fastener, snap cup onto ball, tighten fastener).

Power Connection

Plug the included USB-C charging cable into the charging port at the bottom of the MagSafe charger. Connect the other end of the cable to any available USB power source in your vehicle (e.g., car charger adapter, USB port). For optimal 15W fast charging, ensure your power source supports Quick Charge 3.0 or Power Delivery.

Operation

Attaching Your Device

Once the NRGmount is securely installed and powered, simply place your MagSafe-compatible iPhone (iPhone 12 series or newer) or a phone with a MagSafe-enabled case onto the magnetic charging surface. The strong magnets will automatically align and hold your device in place, initiating wireless charging.

Adjusting Viewing Angle

The NRGmount features 360-degree rotation, allowing you to easily switch between portrait and landscape viewing orientations. Gently rotate your phone on the magnetic surface to achieve your preferred angle. The adjustable arm on the windshield mount also allows for further positioning adjustments.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the surface of the charger and mount. For the suction cup, a damp cloth can be used, ensuring it is completely dry before re-applying.
• Suction Cup Adhesion: If the suction cup loses its grip, clean both the suction cup and the installation surface thoroughly with a mild cleaner and allow to air dry completely before re-installation.
• Cable Care: Avoid bending or crimping the USB-C cable excessively to prevent damage.

Troubleshooting

• Device Not Charging:
  • Ensure the USB-C cable is securely connected to both the charger and the power source.
  • Verify that the vehicle's power outlet (e.g., cigarette lighter) is active.
  • Check if your phone case is MagSafe compatible. Non-MagSafe cases may interfere with magnetic attachment and wireless charging.
  • Ensure your phone is properly centered on the MagSafe charging surface.
• Mount Not Holding Securely:
  • For suction cup mounts, ensure the installation surface is clean, dry, and smooth. Re-activate the suction lock lever after pressing firmly.
  • For air vent clips, ensure the clip is fully engaged with the vent blade and the fastener is tightened.
  • Avoid placing the mount on textured or uneven surfaces.
• Slow Charging:
  • Ensure your vehicle's USB power adapter or port supports 15W fast charging (e.g., Quick Charge 3.0 or Power Delivery). Standard USB ports may provide slower charging speeds.
  • Remove any thick phone cases that might impede wireless charging efficiency.
