The Carpuride W125P offers two primary mounting options: a self-adhesive mount and a suction cup mount. Choose the option that best suits your vehicle's dashboard or windshield.

1. Clean the Surface: Ensure the mounting surface (dashboard or windshield) is clean and dry for optimal adhesion.
2. Attach the Mount:
   • For the Self-Adhesive Mount: Remove the protective film from the adhesive pad and firmly press the mount onto the desired surface. Apply pressure for a few seconds.
   • For the Suction Cup Mount: Place the suction cup on the clean surface, then press down the lever to create a vacuum seal.
3. Secure the Display: Slide the Carpuride W125P display onto the chosen mount until it clicks securely into place.
4. Adjust Angle: Adjust the viewing angle for optimal visibility without obstructing your driving view.

Important Note:

For initial installation with the self-adhesive mount, it is recommended to fix the mount to the vehicle and let it rest for 24 hours before attaching the display. This allows the adhesive to cure properly, ensuring a secure hold.
