Device Compatibility & Charging

The MagicMount Pro Charge4 Extendo is designed for broad smartphone compatibility and efficient wireless charging.

MagSafe Compatibility

For iPhone 12, 13, 14, 15 series, and later devices with MagSafe technology, no MagicPlate is required. The device will magnetically attach directly to the mount's charging head.

Qi-Compatible Devices (Non-MagSafe)

For other Qi-compatible smartphones (e.g., iPhone 8-11, Android, Galaxy, Pixel), the included MagicPlate must be applied to your device or its case. For optimal wireless charging, place the MagicPlate below the charging zone on your phone or case, ensuring it does not obstruct the wireless charging coil.

Wireless Charging

Once your device is securely attached to the magnetic charging head, connect the included 2-port 20W USB-C Power Delivery Car Charger to your vehicle's 12V power outlet. Connect the USB-C cable from the mount to the car charger. Your device will begin to charge wirelessly at up to 15W, provided it is Qi-compatible.

Operation & Adjustments

The MagicMount Pro Charge4 Extendo offers flexible positioning for optimal viewing.

• Attaching Your Phone: Simply bring your MagSafe-compatible phone or a phone with a properly placed MagicPlate close to the magnetic charging head. The strong rare-earth magnets will securely hold your device in place.
• Adjusting Viewing Angle: The mount features a 220-degree adjustable head. Gently pivot the phone to switch between portrait and landscape orientation or to adjust the viewing angle.
• Telescoping Arm Adjustment: Loosen the knob on the telescoping arm to extend or retract the arm (from 5.07" to 8.61") to bring your phone closer or further away. Tighten the knob to lock the arm in position.

Care and Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your MagicMount Pro Charge4 Extendo, follow these care instructions:

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down the mount. For the suction cup, a damp cloth can be used, but ensure it is completely dry before re-applying. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Storage: If storing the mount for an extended period, release the suction cup and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
• Avoid Extreme Temperatures: Prolonged exposure to extreme heat or cold can affect the performance and lifespan of the mount.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your MagicMount Pro Charge4 Extendo, refer to the following common solutions:

• Mount Not Sticking:
  • Ensure the mounting surface is clean, smooth, and dry.
  • Press the suction cup firmly against the surface before engaging the locking lever.
  • If using on a textured dashboard, consider using a dashboard mounting disc (not included) for a smoother surface.
• Phone Not Holding Securely:
  • For non-MagSafe devices, verify the MagicPlate is correctly positioned on your phone or case, ensuring it is centered and securely adhered.
  • Ensure there are no obstructions (e.g., thick phone cases, pop sockets) between the phone and the mount that could interfere with the magnetic connection.
  • The magnets are designed to be 100% mobile device safe.
• Wireless Charging Not Working:
  • Confirm the car charger is properly inserted into the vehicle's 12V power outlet and the vehicle's ignition is on.

  • Verify your phone is Qi-compatible and correctly aligned on the charging head.
  • Remove any unusually thick phone cases or metal objects between the phone and the mount that might interfere with wireless charging.
