Installing a smartphone mount in your Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross is a practical upgrade that enhances convenience and safety while driving. With your phone securely mounted, you can easily access GPS navigation, music, and hands-free calls without distractions.

What You'll Need

  • Smartphone mount compatible with your Eclipse Cross
  • Cleaning cloth
  • Optional: Isopropyl alcohol for surface cleaning

Step-by-Step Installation Guide

Follow these simple steps to install your smartphone mount:

  1. Choose the mounting location: Common spots include the dashboard or air vent. Make sure the location doesn’t obstruct your view while driving.
  2. Clean the surface: Use a cleaning cloth and isopropyl alcohol if available to ensure the area is free from dust and oils. This helps the mount adhere securely.
  3. Attach the mount: If it’s a suction cup mount, press it firmly against the surface and lock it in place. For adhesive mounts, peel off the backing and press it down firmly.
  4. Secure your smartphone: Place your phone in the mount and adjust it for optimal viewing angle and stability.
  5. Test stability: Gently shake the mount to ensure it holds firmly and won’t distract you while driving.

Tips for Safe Usage

Always avoid adjusting your phone while driving. Set your route and music before you start your trip, and use voice commands whenever possible to keep your focus on the road.
