Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and proper function of your Scosche PC855093 dash mount, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Wipe the mount with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and grime. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the ABS plastic material.
• Periodic Check: Periodically inspect the mount to ensure it remains securely clipped into the dashboard seams. If it feels loose, re-engage the clips by gently pressing it back into place.
• Environmental Factors: While the mount is made of durable ABS plastic, extreme temperatures or prolonged direct sunlight can affect its material over time. Parking in shaded areas when possible may help preserve its condition.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your Scosche PC855093 dash mount, refer to the following common solutions:

• Mount feels loose after installation:
  • Ensure the clips are fully engaged in the dashboard seams. Remove and re-install the mount, applying firm but gentle pressure until it clicks into place.
  • Verify that the mount is compatible with your specific vehicle model and year.
• Mount obstructs view or controls:
  • The mount is designed for a specific location. If it obstructs your view, ensure your device holder and device are positioned optimally.
  • Consider the size of your device and device holder. Larger devices may inherently occupy more visual space.
• Device holder does not fit the mount:
  • The PC855093 provides a standard mounting platform. Ensure your device holder is compatible with this type of platform.
  • Contact the manufacturer of your device holder for compatibility information.
