Installation Instructions:

Polarization along the longest dimension. Select smooth surface; avoid touching adhesive and IC. Clean and dry surface for maximum bond strength. Ideal application temperature: +16°C to +38°C (+60°F to +100°F). Improve bond strength with firm pressure and moderate heating. Application below +10°C (50°F) not recommended; warm surface for best adhesion.
