MOUNTING TIPS
Follow these guidelines when attaching adhesive mounts to helmets,
vehicles, and gear:
• Attach mounts at least 24 hours before you use them.
• Only attach the mounts to smooth surfaces. They won’t stick properly
to porous or textured surfaces.
• Firmly press mounts into place. Be sure the adhesive is in full contact
with the surface.
• Only use on clean, dry surfaces. Wax, oil, dirt, or other debris will
weaken the bond and you could lose your camera.
• Attach mounts in room temperature conditions. They won’t stick
properly in cold or damp environments or on cold or damp surfaces.
• Check state and local regulations and laws to ensure that attaching
a camera to equipment (such as hunting equipment) is permitted.
Always comply with regulations that restrict the use of consumer
electronics or cameras.
WARNING: To avoid injury, do not use a tether when mounting
your camera on a helmet. Do not mount the camera directly on
skis or snowboards.

To avoid injury, do not use a tether when mounting the camera
on a helmet. Do not mount the camera directly on skis or
snowboards.
WARNING: Always use a helmet that meets applicable safety
standards if you’re using a GoPro helmet mount or strap.
Choose the right helmet for your sport or activity, and make
sure that it’s the right size and t for you. Check to see
that your helmet’s in good condition, and always follow the
manufacturer’s instructions on safe use.
Replace any helmet that’s had a major impact. No helmet can
protect against injury in every accident. Be safe.
