Mounting your Twist
There are three ways to mount your Flic Twist:
1. Magnets:
Attach your Twist to any metal surface.
2. Adhesive*:
Each Twist comes with a reusable
adhesive sticker, pre-attached to the
back.
Simply peel off the first protective layer and stick your adhesive onto your
Twist as shown below. Then, remove the second protective layer and stick
your Twist onto any clean surface.
If you want to change the position of your Twist, twist the button to the right
in order to exert horizontal force which makes it easier to remove the
adhesive from the surface.
*Note: We do not recommend sticking it to wallpaper as it might damage
the surface attached.
3. Wall mount:
First, remove the hatch located on the
back side of the Twist, on the upper part,
using a small flathead screwdriver.
Then, with the same tool, remove the wall mount from the opposite side.
Insert screws into the two holes, and screw it to a wall.

Cleaning the adhesive
If the adhesive starts to lose its stickiness then you can clean it.
1. Remove the adhesive from the Twist.
2. Carefully wash the adhesive with rinsing water.
3. Give it a gentle rub and repeat the wash.
4. Leave it to air-dry and it will return to full stickiness.
5. Stick the adhesive on the Twist again.
Flic Twist is not waterproof. Make sure you don’t put the Twist underwater.
