Package Contents
Please ensure all items are present before proceeding with installation:
- Baseus Dual Arm Adjustable Magnetic Car Phone Mount
- Magnetic Ring (for non-MagSafe compatible phones/cases)
- Spare 3M Adhesive Pads
- Cleaning Wipe
Setup and Installation
Follow these steps for proper installation to ensure maximum adhesion and stability:
- Prepare the Mounting Area: Clean the desired mounting surface thoroughly with the provided cleaning wipe and ensure it is completely dry. Choose a smooth, hard surface for optimal adhesion. Avoid fabric, soft leather, nubuck, or suede surfaces.
- Apply the Mount: Peel off the release film from the 3M adhesive pads on the base of the mount. Align the base and press it firmly onto the cleaned surface for at least 30 seconds to ensure full contact.
- Allow Adhesion Time: For best results, let the mount sit for 24 hours before attaching your phone or adjusting its position. This allows the adhesive to fully cure and bond.
- Optional: Detachable Base Orientation: The bases are detachable for flexible orientation. To detach, pull the adhesive pad downward to release the slider. Flip the adhesive pad and push it back in the opposite direction. Repeat for the other base.
- Optional: Magnetic Ring Installation: If your phone or case is not MagSafe compatible (e.g., iPhone 11 and earlier, Android phones), use the included magnetic ring. Follow the instructions provided with the ring for proper placement on your phone or case to ensure a secure magnetic connection.

Operating Instructions
- Attaching Your Phone: Simply bring your MagSafe-compatible iPhone (or phone with the magnetic ring) close to the magnetic pad. The strong magnets will automatically align and secure your device.
- Detaching Your Phone: To remove your phone, gently pull it away from the magnetic pad. The design allows for easy one-handed detachment.
- Adjusting Viewing Angle: The dual flexible arms allow for precise adjustment of your phone's position. Bend, twist, or straighten the arms to achieve your desired viewing angle. The arms are designed to hold their shape firmly once adjusted.

Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your car mount:
- Cleaning: Wipe the magnetic pad and arms with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Adhesive Care: Once installed, avoid frequently repositioning the mount as this can weaken the adhesive bond. If you need to re-install, use a new 3M adhesive pad (spare pads are included).
- Temperature: While the adhesive is designed to be heat-resistant, extreme and prolonged exposure to direct sunlight in very hot climates may affect its long-term performance. Parking in shaded areas when possible can help preserve the adhesive.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Mount is not sticking to the dashboard. | Surface was not clean or dry; surface is incompatible (e.g., fabric, soft leather); insufficient pressure applied during installation; adhesive not fully cured. | Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and hard. Apply firm pressure for at least 30 seconds. Wait 24 hours before use. If necessary, use a new 3M adhesive pad. |
| Phone is not securely attaching to the magnetic pad. | Phone case is too thick or not MagSafe compatible; magnetic ring not installed or improperly placed. | Ensure your phone case is thin enough or MagSafe compatible. If not, install the included magnetic ring correctly on your phone or case. Avoid cases with liquid silicone, leather-textured, corrugated, or TPU soft finishes as they may reduce magnetic adhesion. |
| Arms do not hold position. | Excessive force applied repeatedly; internal mechanism wear. | Ensure adjustments are made smoothly. If the issue persists after normal use, contact customer support. |
