4.1 Preparazione della superficie

For optimal adhesion and safety, ensure the mounting surface is clean, dry, and flat. Avoid rough, wet, uneven, or fragile surfaces. Dust, dirt, or moisture can significantly reduce suction strength. If attaching to surfaces with protective films, exercise caution and verify compatibility.

4.2 Fissaggio della ventosa

  1. Place the suction cup firmly against the prepared surface.
  2. Press the air pump button repeatedly until the white marking line on the pump is no longer visible. This indicates that sufficient vacuum pressure has been achieved for secure attachment.

5.2 Removing the Suction Cup

To remove the suction cup, simultaneously pull up on the two rubber tabs located on the edge of the suction cup base. This will release the vacuum pressure, allowing for easy detachment from the surface.

6. Manutenzione

  • Always keep the suction cup base and filter foam clean and intact. Any debris can compromise the suction seal.
  • When not in use, attach the included dust cover to the suction cup to prevent contamination and extend the product's lifespan.
  • Conservare il supporto in un luogo fresco e asciutto, lontano dalla luce solare diretta e da temperature estreme.

7. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

  • Perdita di aspirazione: If the white marking line on the air pump reappears, it indicates a loss of vacuum pressure. Immediately pump the valve again until the line disappears to restore secure suction.
  • Il supporto non si attacca: Ensure the mounting surface is perfectly clean, dry, and smooth. Avoid textured or porous surfaces. Check the suction cup base for any damage or debris.
  • Adhesion Status: For safety, check the adhesion status every 2 hours during operation, especially in dynamic environments like moving vehicles.
  • Danni al prodotto: Discontinue use if the suction cup base or filter foam is damaged, as this can lead to unexpected detachment and potential damage to your camera.
