NOTICE The headrest must lock into the seat after the camera is installed. If the headrest does not lock, the camera should not be installed on this headrest. Adjusting the Camera Position Using the Extension Arm Accessory You can adjust the camera angle and orientation to include the optimal area in the video frame.

Adhesive Mount Accessory The optional adhesive mount accessory allows you to mount the camera on a window. This can be useful when no headrest post mounting locations provide a clear view of your passenger. Go to garmin.com/babycam to purchase mounting accessories. Installing the Camera Using the Adhesive Mount CAUTION Do not install the camera in a location that interferes with the driver's view of the road or environment. NOTICE Do not install the adhesive mount on a window that can roll down. Rolling down a window with the adhesive mount installed can result in damage to the mount, camera, window assembly, or window motor. 1 Clean the window using water or alcohol, and a lint-free cloth. The window must be free of dust, wax, oils, or coatings. 2 Remove the protective film from the mount adhesive. 3 Position the mount over the mounting location. TIP: The adhesive is extremely sticky. Do not touch the adhesive to the window until the mount is properly positioned and aligned. 4 Press the mount firmly onto the window, and maintain pressure for 30 seconds. 5 Wait 24 hours before installing the camera. The adhesive takes 24 hours to bond properly to the window. 6 After 24 hours, place the camera onto the mount and secure it with a thumbscrew. To increase the depth to fit a thicker headrest, rotate the clamp counterclockwise. To decrease the depth to fit a thinner headrest, rotate the clamp clockwise. • To level the camera orientation, loosen the threaded ring Á by turning it one full turn counterclockwise, and turn the camera until the subject is level in the video frame. • To point the camera left or right, loosen the thumbscrew near the clamp by turning it counterclockwise, and swing the  extension arm left or right. Removing the Adhesive Mount The adhesive mount is intended for a long-term installation and can be difficult to remove. 1 Firmly grip the mount. 2 Pull the mount up and away from the window or surface, applying steady pressure until the adhesive releases. 3 Remove all remaining adhesive from the surface.
