    Adhesive Mounts

USING THE FRAME

The Frame is used to attach your camera to GoPro mounts.

  1. Unlock the latch and open the door.

  2. Slide your camera in. Be sure that your camera sits flush against the front edge of The Frame.

  3. Close the door.

  4. Lock the latch.

ATTACHING YOUR CAMERA TO MOUNTS

Once your camera’s in The Frame, you’re ready to mount. Depending on the mount you’re using, you’ll either use a mounting buckle or attach The Frame directly to the mount itself.

See Mounting Tips for tips on using adhesive mounts.

  1. Interlock the mounting fingers on The Frame with the mounting fingers on the buckle.

  2. Secure The Frame to the mounting buckle with a thumb screw.

  3. Attach the mounting buckle to the mount.

📘

PRO TIP: You may want to keep your camera in The Frame, even when it’s not mounted. The Frame gives your camera a little extra protection in case you drop it.

MOUNTING TIPS

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 equipment) is permitted. Always comply with regulations that restrict the use of consumer electronics or cameras.

🚧

WARNING: To avoid injury, do not use a tether when mounting your camera on a helmet. Do not mount the camera directly on skis or snowboards.

🚧

WARNING: 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 had a major impact. No helmet can protect against injury in every accident. Be safe.

USING YOUR GOPRO IN + AROUND WATER

HERO7 Black is waterproof to 33ft (10m) with the door closed. You won’t need an additional housing before diving in.

The touch screen was designed to work when wet, but you may need to wipe it off if it has trouble sensing your commands. You can also navigate with your camera’s buttons if you’re under water. To learn more, see Navigating with the Buttons.

Heads Up: The Frame does not provide additional waterproof protection.

📘

PRO TIP: Use a camera tether and a Floaty (sold separately) to keep your camera afloat in case it detaches from the mount.

To capture extreme adventures down to 196ft (60m), pick up the GoPro Super Suit (Protection + Dive Housing), sold separately.

For more information on Camera Tethers, Floaty, and Super Suit, visit gopro.com.
