For extremely horizontal or extremely sloped windshields, the EasyMount Bracket can be bent.    To ensure that the suction cups adhere to the windshield firmly, be sure to keep both your windshield and the suction cups clean.2  To adjust the PASSPORT on your windshield, use the EasyMount adjustment button located on the top of the PASSPORT, and slide PASSPORT forward or backward to obtain a level position.  When installed and adjusted properly, the back top edge of the PASSPORT should rest solidly against your windshield.  User’s Tip: You can leave the EasyMount bracket in place on your windshield, and easily remove PASSPORT by pressing the adjustment button and sliding PASSPORT off the mount. Again, be sure to position the bracket where it won’t present a hazard in the event of an accident.   Additional mounts are available at EscortRadar.com
