USING ADHESIVE MOUNTS

Follow these guidelines when attaching adhesive mounts to helmets,
vehicles, and gear:

• Attach mounts at least 24 hours before you use them.
• Only attach the mounts to smooth surfaces. They won’t stick properly

to porous or textured surfaces.

• Firmly press mounts into place. Be sure the adhesive is in full contact

with the surface.

• Only use on clean, dry surfaces. Wax, oil, dirt, or other debris will

weaken the bond, and you could lose your camera.

• Attach mounts in room temperature conditions. They won’t stick

properly in cold or damp environments or on cold or damp surfaces.

• Check state and local regulations and laws to ensure that attaching

a camera to equipment (such as hunting gear) is permitted. Always
comply with regulations that restrict the use of consumer electronics
or cameras.

Mounting Your GoPro

WARNING: The Curved Adhesive Mount and Mounting Buckle

included with MAX may be used for helmet mounting. Do not

use the Curved Fusion Mount (included with Fusion Mounts,

sold separately) to mount MAX to a helmet.

Always use a helmet that meets applicable safety standards if

you’re using a GoPro helmet mount or strap.

Choose the right helmet for your sport or activity, and make

sure that it’s the right size and fit for you. Check to see

that your helmet’s in good condition, and always follow the

manufacturer’s instructions on safe use.

Replace any helmet that’s been subjected to a major impact.

No helmet can protect against injury in every accident. Be

safe.

To avoid injury, do not use a tether when mounting the camera

on a helmet. Do not mount the camera directly on skis or

snowboards.

USING YOUR GOPRO AROUND WATER

MAX is waterproof to 16ft (5m). You won’t need an additional housing
to capture surf footage or any other shots on the water. MAX is not
designed for underwater use.

The touch screen may not work when wet, but you can use the Mode
button

to switch between Video, Photo, and Time Lapse modes

when your camera is on.

PRO TIP:

Use Screen Lock to prevent water from accidentally triggering

and changing settings on the touch screen.
