Maintenance
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the light bar with a soft, dry, or slightly damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the light bar in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting
- Light does not turn on:
- Ensure the Type-C cable is securely connected to both the light bar and the power source.
- Verify the power source (USB port or adapter) is functioning correctly.
- If using the knob version, click the knob once to ensure the main light is not just off.
- Dimming or color temperature adjustment not working:
- For knob version, ensure you are performing the correct action (rotate for brightness, long press for color temperature).
- If using a remote control version, check the remote's battery and ensure it's within range.
- RGB ambient light not working:
- For knob version, double-click the knob to toggle the ambient light.
- Ensure the device is in Game Mode if specific RGB effects are expected.
- Visible flickering:
- The G1 light bar is designed to be flicker-free. If flickering occurs, try a different power source or USB cable.
