Maintenance and Care
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the appearance of your Case Logic SLRC-206 backpack.
- Cleaning: For general cleaning, wipe the exterior nylon fabric with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
- EVA Base: The water-proof EVA base can be easily wiped clean with a damp cloth.
- Drying: Allow the backpack to air dry completely before storing, especially if it has been exposed to moisture. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
- Storage: Store the backpack in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
- Zippers: Periodically check zippers for smooth operation. If they become stiff, a small amount of zipper lubricant or wax can be applied.
Troubleshooting and Tips
This section provides guidance for common observations and tips for optimal use.
- Zipper Security: To prevent accidental unzipping, especially of the laptop compartment, ensure zippers are fully closed. Consider zipping both pulls to one side (e.g., the bottom) rather than leaving them partially open at the top.
- Screen Protection: When placing your camera into the suspension system, ensure the camera's LCD screen is protected, as it may be in proximity to the zipper. A screen protector is recommended.
- Tripod Balance: When attaching a tripod, distribute its weight as evenly as possible to maintain backpack balance.
- Capacity Management: While the backpack is spacious, avoid overpacking to prevent strain on zippers and seams, and to maintain comfort.
