Smartphone kickstand Install

Step 1: Clean the back of your device with a clean damp cloth or use the alcohol pad wipe if supplied and thoroughly wipe dry.

Tip: Before removing protective backing of the adhesive strip experiment placing the kickstand4u ™ mobile kickstand in different locations on the back of your device to help find the location that is best for you.

The general rule of thumb on placement is in the "center" and 1/2" to 1" from the bottom of the phone.  Diagrams A and Diagrams B show the kickstand blade locked in the 2nd notch position in all pictured examples, and the device angle changes where the kickstand is mounted on the the device, the option is yours.

Step 2: After locating the place where you want to install the kickstand, remove the protective backing of the adhesive strip and carefully position it and "lightly" put kickstand4u™ kickstand in place in case you have to re-position it.

When satisfied, firmly press and hold the kickstand4u™ kickstand to your device for 10 seconds.  Maximum grip occurs within 36 to 72 hours.  If you need to re-position the kickstand, simply use the "pull tab" to release.  There is a spare adhesive in the package if needed.
