(Pic # 2 & 3).

1) Best method is to remove the hook attachment (Pic #2) from the main unit to ensure there is enough space to fit comfortably over the depth of your door panel’s plane before attaching the ArmRestor Body.

2) The best option of inserting the hook lip (Pic #2) is to have your window rolled down completely, and in some cases, to leave the window slightly visible, and then insert the lip between the window and the weather stripping. Make sure the lip is not inserted over the
glass (Pic # 3), then roll up window to ensure it is properly attached.

these tools or attachment materials. The lip adjustment allows the device to fit securely & comfortable along any door panel.
Q:  Will the ArmRestor look or appear to fit smoothly or look right?

to press tightly along the door panel for a tight and smooth fit without the lumbered appearance.
Q:  Is the ArmRestor permanently positioned on the door panel?
A: NO, it is your choice to leave it there permanently or not. The device is portable and the adjustment mechanisms allow you
to easily remove it, reposition it, or replace it back on your door panel.
Q:  Can the ArmRestor Device only be on the driver’s side door panel?
A: No, the device was designed & patented to be used as a reversible Armrest and can be used on any one of your door panels. The cup holder can position on each side of the Device, allowing the cup tray to be reversible. This will allow the Cup tray to always be positioned in the front.
Q:  Can you place the Cup holder on the back end of the Device?
A: Yes, the cup holder has two holding locations (chambers), one on each end. It is up to the owner to use it to their best intentions. We recommend having the cup holder rest in the front side for easy access while driving. For passenger use, the cup holder can be in either position.
Q:  Will the Lip scratch the window?
A: No, the materials used are scratch resistant. The ergonomically developed Lip avoids the back end from rubbing against your
window.

A: Yes, the ArmRestor has preset positions on the hook adjustment, allowing you to have the pad raised in a higher position to the
plane of your door panel or raised lower to the plane of your door panel. The unit will incline. Or you can simply raise your seats to adjust for the height of the ArmRestor. Visit our web page for our soon to be released Z hook which allows total height adjustment without the incline appearance.
Q:  If lower the Pad height of the device, will the device be loose?
A: Yes and No, lowering the device will seem slightly lose but it was designed to stay on the door panel when in use and when
closing the door. No, when the device is in a higher positioning. It all depends on your pad comfort level.
Q:  Will a drink spill while driving?
A: No, the design of the cup holder and unit will withstand road bumps, so it acts as a shock absorber. However, like any cup- holding device, liquid within the cup should not be full to the rim.
Q:  Will the drink come out of the cup holder is a slam the door?
A: No, the cup or drink will remain in the door. We recommend that your drink is not full to its rim.
Q:  Will the drink come out of the cup holder with the ArmRestor adjusted for height comfort?
A: Possibly, the drink will come out of the cup holder if the unit is adjusted to a lower position. If the unit adjusts in a lower position, the cup holder will slightly be angled. Use your best judgment. ( visit our web page for our soon to be released Z hook allowing for height adjustment capabilities without any unit incline).

Cautions:

  • Position the ArmRestor along the door panel to avoid interference with the steering
    wheel, so that you have the most comfortable positioning of the Device. The slidable pad allows you to
    use the device as close or far from you since the pad feature moves along the base.
  • Be diligent where you place the device so to avoid objects that may be on your door panel such as a handle to open the door or the doorknob.
  • Before closing or slamming your car door, be sure to remove any drinking cup from the cup- holder that does not have a lid cover. This is a precaution so to avoid the cup from potentially spilling out any liquid.
  • Be cautious of drinking hot items placed in your cup holder as you may unintentionally hit the cup while driving and may burn your hand or leg. Place the cup holder in the appropriate position.
  • Window with Film coating- If your vehicle is tinted with film plastic coating, be cautious as the hook may scratch the film. Tinted windows with no film coating have no caveats.

Nylon Spring Push Button– located within the interior pad, contains a nylon spring. We do not use metal springs. This allows years of continued use and easy replacement if required and to ensure a tightly secured pad while driving. A new Push button may sometimes be rigid or feel very tight when pressing to slide the pad. This is easily resolved. We recommend on some units to first exercise the push button to loosen the Nylon (resilient plastic) by gently pressing and releasing the push button until you are comfortable with the ease of use.
Hook Not Flushing on door panel– some vehicles may appear to prevent the hook from flushing evenly on the door panel. This is easily resolved. This is commonly caused by either U channel blocker that is placed inside the door panel or a secondary inner rubber lining. This is used sometimes to keep window tight enough from rubbing against the rubber lining or for weather prevention.

Place your finger inside the rubber lining to push the second inner lining to one side , while holding the lining to one side, with the other hand, take the lip located on the hook and angle it in between the window and lining. Gently wiggle the lip until it easily slides inside this area. If a U channel is the issue, you can easily feel for it. Normally found in the center of the door panel about an inch beneath the top of the panel. Again with your finger, gently feel for the blocker and press to one side or gently move it while sliding the lip inside the door panel. Again, wiggle it gently until the hook slides into place.
