To use the mount, first secure the holder to a compatible Brodit ProClip or a flat surface mount within your vehicle.

Ensure the device is properly aligned with the holder's contours to guarantee a stable fit. To remove, gently pull the tablet out of the holder, ensuring you do not apply excessive force to the mounting hardware.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify your tablet model and specific configuration, including the presence of the rugged frame and expansion back.
• Ensure you have a compatible vehicle-specific mounting bracket or base plate for installation.
• Check the desired mounting location in your vehicle to ensure it does not obstruct the driver's view or vehicle controls.

For optimal performance and safety, regularly inspect the mounting screws and the holder's integrity. Ensure the tablet is fully seated in the mount before starting the vehicle to prevent accidental dislodgement during transit.
