4. Operating Instructions
Once the KIMISS GPS Navigation Phone Holder Stand is securely installed, you can attach your preferred GPS device or smartphone holder to the crossbar.
- Attach Device Holder: Mount your existing smartphone or GPS holder onto the newly installed crossbar. Most universal holders are compatible with a 22mm diameter bar.
- Secure Device: Place your smartphone or GPS device into its holder, ensuring it is firmly gripped. Adjust the viewing angle for optimal visibility without obstructing your view of the road or motorcycle instruments.
- Pre-Ride Check: Before each ride, gently tug on the device and its holder to confirm it is securely attached and will not vibrate loose during operation.
The elevated position of the holder is designed to improve your line of sight to the navigation screen, contributing to a safer riding experience.
5. Maintenance
The KIMISS GPS Navigation Phone Holder Stand is constructed from durable aluminum alloy and requires minimal maintenance.
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe the bracket with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and dirt. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish.
- Check Fasteners: Periodically inspect all screws and bolts for tightness. Vibrations from riding can sometimes loosen fasteners over time. Re-tighten as necessary, but do not over-tighten.
- Inspect for Damage: Regularly check the aluminum alloy components for any signs of cracks, bends, or corrosion. If damage is observed, replace the affected parts immediately to ensure safety.
