IMPORTANT INFORMATION

! Please ensure this product is installed as per these installation instructions.

! Do not remove/ throw away the plastic cap on the base.

! This product is compatible with Atdec AWM Series products.

! Curved monitors, deep devices (such as all-in-one PCs) and offset VESA locations exert additional leverage that can exceed the capacity of the mount even though the monitor weight may be within the stated range.

! The manufacturer accepts no responsibility for incorrect installation.
