Key Features

Setup Instructions
- Prepare Your Mounting System: Ensure you have a compatible 20mm ball and socket mounting arm or base (sold separately) securely installed in your desired location (e.g., dashboard, windshield, console).
- Attach the Phone Holder: Slide the socket of the Enduro 20LITE Phone Holder onto the 20mm ball of your mounting arm. Tighten the collar on your mounting arm to secure the phone holder in place. Ensure it is firm and does not rotate freely.
- Adjust Orientation: Position the phone holder to your preferred viewing angle.
Operating Instructions
- Inserting Your Phone: With one hand, gently pull one side of the spring-loaded grip outwards. Slide your smartphone into the holder, ensuring it is centered and securely held by both grips. Release the grip slowly to allow it to clamp firmly onto your phone.

Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the phone holder with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and grime. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the finish.
- Inspection: Periodically check all connections and moving parts to ensure they are secure and functioning correctly. Ensure the spring mechanism operates smoothly.
- Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the phone holder in a clean, dry environment.
Troubleshooting
- Phone Not Holding Securely:
- Ensure your phone's width is within the compatible range (2.3" to 3.75").
- Verify that the phone is centered in the holder and the grips are fully engaged.
- Check for any obstructions preventing the grips from closing properly.
- Holder Feels Loose on Mount:
- Ensure the collar on your 20mm ball mounting arm is fully tightened.
- Confirm that your mounting arm uses a standard 20mm ball. This holder is not interchangeable with 25.4mm or 26mm systems.
- Difficulty Inserting/Removing Phone:
- Ensure you are fully extending one side of the spring-loaded grip before attempting to insert or remove the phone.
- The spring tension is optimized for a secure hold; some initial force is expected.
