7.1 Turbo Function Issues

If a button press results in a multi-click effect instead of a single click, the Turbo function is likely active. To deactivate it, double-click the "CLEAR" button on the gamepad.

7.2 Connection Problems

• Controller not connecting to PC/Android TV Box (T3): Ensure the 2.4GHz wireless USB receiver is securely plugged into a USB port. Try a different USB port.
• Controller not connecting to Switch/Android/iOS (T3s): Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your device and the controller is in pairing mode. Remove any previous pairings and attempt to re-pair.
• Controller not recognized: Ensure the controller is fully charged. Try connecting via the wired Micro-USB cable to see if it's recognized.

• No power: Charge the controller using the provided Micro-USB cable.
• Unresponsive buttons/joysticks: Ensure the controller is properly connected and charged. If issues persist, a factory reset (if available, consult the full user manual) might be necessary.

8. User Tips
