4. Installationsanweisungen

Follow these steps carefully to install your Brodit ProClip. No special tools are required beyond the included gap opener.

1. Schritt 1: Bereiten Sie den Installationsbereich vor

   Locate the installation point on your dashboard, to the right of the steering wheel, as indicated in the diagram. Use the provided gap opener tool to gently pry open the gap between the dashboard trim and the air vent housing. This creates space for the ProClip's lower edge.

2. Step 2: Insert the Lower Edge of the ProClip

   Insert the lower, angled edge of the ProClip into the gap you created in Step 1. Ensure it slides fully into place and is securely seated against the dashboard trim.

3. Step 3: Secure the Upper Edge of the ProClip

   Once the lower edge is in place, gently push the upper part of the ProClip upwards and inwards until it snaps into position, securing itself against the upper dashboard trim or air vent. The ProClip should now be firmly attached to the dashboard.

5. Nutzung

Once the Brodit ProClip is securely installed, you can attach any compatible device holder to its flat surface. Most Brodit device holders, and many third-party holders, are designed to screw directly onto the ProClip. Ensure the device holder is firmly attached to prevent movement during vehicle operation.

6. Wartung

The Brodit ProClip requires minimal maintenance. To clean, simply wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these may damage the plastic material or the vehicle's interior surfaces.

7. Fehlerbehebung

• ProClip feels loose: Re-check all installation steps. Ensure both the lower and upper edges are fully seated and snapped into place. Apply firm, even pressure during installation.
• Difficulty inserting ProClip: Ensure you are using the gap opener tool to create sufficient space. Do not force the ProClip, as this may damage the vehicle's interior. Verify vehicle compatibility.
• Device holder not attaching: Ensure you are using the correct screws and that the device holder is compatible with the ProClip's mounting pattern.
