Care and Maintenance
- Keep the adapter clean and free from dust. Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.
- Avoid exposing the adapter to extreme temperatures, humidity, or direct sunlight.

- Check for physical obstructions, especially metal objects, between the adapter and controller that might interfere with the signal. Consider using a USB extension cable to reposition the adapter.

- Intermittent connection or lag:
- Ensure the adapter is not obstructed by metal objects.
