  2. Extend the Hook: Push the button on the back of the hook mechanism to extend the steel hook to its proper length. The hook length can extend up to 1.5 inches.
  3. Mount to Air Vent: Carefully hook the extended steel hook onto one of your car's air vent blades. Ensure the hook is firmly secured.
  4. Lock the Mount: Once the hook is in place, turn the locking collar clockwise to tighten the hook onto the vent blade. This will secure the mount and prevent shaking.
