2. Identify a hard, flat surface within your car to allow the optimum Roady2
viewing position for the primary user as well as access to the cassette
player, power source, and antenna-cable route. In order to maximize
visibility, this position should be chosen to minimize glare or direct
sunlight on the display. Do not install the mount where it or Roady2
could block your vision, vehicle airbags, or controls. Do not install the
mount on a leather surface. The adhesive used on the mount is not easily
repositioned when installed, so please use care when choosing the location
and placing the mount.
3. Clean the vehicle mounting surface with the enclosed surface preparation
cleaning kit. Wipe with the towelette in only one direction. Do not wipe the
surface in a circular motion or back and forth. Dry area with a clean, dry
cloth. Wipe dry in the same direction again and then repeat this cleaning
process. Allow to air dry thoroughly to ensure effective adhesion.
4. Clean the same surface with the enclosed alcohol prep pad. Wipe in the
same direction and manner as with the towelette. Dry the area with a clean,
dry cloth, wiping in one direction. Allow to air dry thoroughly. Ensure that
the surface is at least 60°F.
5. Warm the car mount adhesive pad by using a hair dryer or by placing
the car mount on top of the vehicle’s defrost outlet for several minutes with
the heater on. Remove the liner from the adhesive pad and adhere to the
vehicle’s surface. Make sure you accurately place the pad on the first try
since in many cases it will bond almost immediately. 3M recommends a
72-hour curing time for maximum adhesion.
Note: Your Roady2 Kit includes an optional temporary vent mount that can be used in place
of the more permanent car mount described in steps 2 through 5 above. Follow the same
installation guidelines in selecting a vent. Assemble the mount by inserting the two clips into
the main piece, clip them onto the vent, and then position the pivoting kickstand at the bot-
tom. Be careful when applying and removing the vent mount clips to prevent damaging the
vehicle’s vent.
