USING CURVED + FLAT ADHESIVE MOUNTS
The Curved + Flat Adhesive Mounts make it easy to attach the camera to
curved and flat surfaces of helmets, vehicles, and gear. With the mounting
buckle, the frame can be clicked on and off the secured adhesive mounts.

MOUNTING GUIDELINES
Follow these guidelines when attaching mounts:
• Attach the adhesive mounts at least 24 hours before use.
• Adhesive mounts must be mounted only on smooth surfaces. Porous
or textured surfaces do not enable a proper bond. When applying
the mount, firmly press it into place and ensure full contact over the
entire surface.
• Apply adhesive mounts to clean surfaces only. Wax, oil, dirt, or other
debris reduce adhesion, which can result in a weak bond and risk of
losing the camera should the connection fail.
• Attach adhesive mounts in room temperature conditions. Adhesives do
not bond properly if applied in cold or damp environments to 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.
MOUNTING YOUR CAMERA
• During water activities, tether your camera for added security and
use a Floaty to keep your camera afloat (sold separately). For more
information, visit gopro.com.
WARNING: To avoid injury, do not use a tether when mounting
the camera on a helmet.
For more information on mounts, see gopro.com.
WARNING: If using your camera with a GoPro mount or strap
intended for use with a helmet, always select a helmet that
meets the applicable safety standard.
Choose the right helmet for your particular sport or activity
and make sure that it is the right fit and size for you. Inspect
your helmet to ensure that it is in good condition, and follow
the helmet manufacturer's instructions on safe helmet use.
Any helmet that has sustained a major impact should
be replaced. No helmet can protect against injury in
every accident.
