• 1 x Spare 3M Adhesive Pad

3. Setup and Installation

Proper installation is crucial for the stability and longevity of your car phone holder. Follow these steps carefully:

1. Choose a Location: Select a smooth, flat surface on your dashboard or windshield. Ensure the chosen area does not obstruct your view or interfere with vehicle controls.
2. Clean the Surface: Vigorously wipe the chosen installation area with a damp cloth at least 10 times to remove any dust, grease, or residue. Allow the surface to dry completely.
3. Apply Adhesive: Peel off the protective film from the 3M VHB adhesive pad on the base of the holder.
4. Secure the Holder: Press the holder firmly onto the cleaned surface for at least 10 seconds. Apply consistent pressure.
5. Curing Time: Allow the adhesive to cure for a minimum of 5 hours before attaching your phone or using the holder. This ensures maximum adhesion strength.

Important Tips:

• Avoid re-applying the adhesive once it has been placed, as this can reduce its effectiveness.
• If the adhesive loses its grip over time, use the provided spare 3M adhesive pad for reinstallation.
• The 3M GPH-160 adhesive is designed to withstand temperatures from -40°F to +300°F, but extreme temperature fluctuations during the initial curing period should be avoided.

Follow these four steps for a secure installation of your SYNCWIRE car phone holder.

4. Operating Instructions

Attaching Your Phone:

• For MagSafe Compatible Devices: Simply bring your MagSafe-enabled iPhone (iPhone 12 series or newer) or MagSafe-compatible case close to the magnetic ring of the holder. The strong N55 magnets will automatically align and secure your phone.
• For Non-MagSafe Devices: Attach the included metal ring to the back of your phone or phone case. Ensure it is centered for optimal magnetic connection. Once the metal ring is attached, you can use the holder as described above.

Adjusting the Viewing Angle:

The holder features a three-axis adjustable arm and a 360-degree rotating base, allowing you to customize your viewing angle:

• Arm Adjustment: Gently manipulate the three joints on the arm to extend, retract, or angle your phone as desired. The joints are designed to be firm to maintain stability.
• Base Rotation: The base can rotate 360 degrees, providing additional flexibility for horizontal or vertical orientation.
• Phone Rotation: Your phone can be rotated 360 degrees on the magnetic head for portrait or landscape viewing.

Folding for Storage:

When not in use, the holder can be folded down to a compact size, making it less obtrusive in your vehicle's interior.

The holder offers versatile mounting options and can be used in various scenarios.

5. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your SYNCWIRE Magnetic Car Phone Holder, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Wipe the holder regularly with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove dust and fingerprints. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the finish.
• Adhesive Care: While the 3M adhesive is durable, avoid excessive force or prying on the base, which could compromise its bond. If you need to relocate the holder, use a new adhesive pad.
• Joints: The metal damping axes are designed for durability. Avoid attempting to disassemble the joints, as this may damage the mechanism.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your SYNCWIRE Magnetic Car Phone Holder, please refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Phone Not Holding Securely:
  • Ensure your phone or case is MagSafe compatible.
  • If using a non-MagSafe phone, verify that the metal ring is properly attached to your phone or case and is centered over the magnetic area.
  • Check for any foreign objects or thick cases between the phone and the magnetic head that might weaken the magnetic connection.
• Holder Becoming Loose from the Surface:
  • Re-evaluate the installation surface. Ensure it is smooth, flat, and was thoroughly cleaned before installation.
  • Confirm that the adhesive had sufficient curing time (at least 5 hours) before use.
  • If necessary, remove the holder, clean the surface again, and re-install using the spare 3M adhesive pad, ensuring proper curing time.
• Difficulty Adjusting the Arm/Joints:
  • The joints are designed to be firm to provide stability. Apply steady, gentle pressure when adjusting. Avoid sudden, forceful movements.
