The base stand’s design uses screw that can be loosened or tightened with a coin for ease and convenience.

Installing iHUD on a dashboard
1. Because of the materials used for the surface of a car’s dashboard are
typically smooth and often coated with varnish, making it difficult to achieve a strong adhesive bond, it is recommended that before installation, a piece of cloth moistened with alcohol be used to wipe the surface to the dashboard.
2. Before installation, the protective film on the base stand’s PVC pad must be peeled off. (It is recommended that you keep this protective film for future use in case you decide to remove the base stand and wish to prevent dust from sticking to it.)
3. Press the iHUD system unit against the
surface of the car’s dashboard (with the
lens cover pointing toward the driver) to attach it. (If space allows, it is recommended that you position it close to the windshield.)
4. If you need to adjust the tilt of the iHUD system unit, remove the iHUD and tighten the quick-release screw to appropriate tightness on the base stand. and then re­attach the iHUD system unit to adjust the angle by moving main device.
5. When you need to remove the base stand, simply use your hand to lift up one corner of the PVC pad.
Adjusting the angle
To accommodate different dashboards, the angle of the iHUD’s base stand can
be adjusted based on the driver’s height, and the angle of the windshield or
dashboard (up to a maximum of 15° in either direction).

Other points to be aware of:
Before affixing the base stand to the dashboard, there should be no dust or
other debris on either surface that may affect the adhesive bond.
After being used for a period of time, dust may accumulate on the base
stand’s PVC pad, affecting the adhesive bond. Use a damp cloth to wipe
the pad and remove dust and grime. When the pad is dry, it is ready for use again.

2. Use a clean cloth to wipe the area on the glass where the reflective film will be affixed.
3. Remove the protective film from the reflective film, and spray on the sealant prepared earlier.
4. Lightly place the moistened reflective film against the windshield at the location where the IHUD’s projected image appears.
5. Sit in the driver’s seat in the attitude you would normally take when driving, and then make any adjustments in the position of the reflective film to obtain an optimal view.
6. With one hand, gently press a corner of the reflective film and with the other hand use a plastic scraper or other flat plastic object (such an ATM card or credit card), and moving from the center to the edges on each side, press out any excess water or air bubbles and ensure there is no foreign matter trapped under the film. (If there is, it will cause refraction interference.)
7. When the water has dried, use a clean cloth to wipe away any water marks on the film.
