2. Setup

The Inka Mobile Pen and Stylus is designed for immediate use. No complex assembly is required. To prepare the device for writing or stylus use:

  1. Uncap the desired end: The device has two capped ends. One end protects the pen tip, and the other protects the stylus tip. Both caps are translucent, allowing visual identification.
  2. Extend for use: To use the pen or stylus in its full-size configuration, remove the cap from the desired end and firmly snap it onto the opposite end of the pen body. This extends the length of the device for comfortable handling.

3. Operation

3.1 Using the Pen Function

Once the pen is extended (cap snapped onto the opposite end), the ballpoint pen is ready for writing. The pen utilizes a pressurized cartridge with waterproof blue ink, allowing it to write smoothly and consistently in various conditions, including extreme temperatures, upside down, and at any altitude, even underwater.

  • Hold the pen comfortably as you would any standard writing instrument.
  • Apply light pressure to write on paper or other surfaces.
  • After use, remove the cap from the extended end and place it back over the pen tip to protect it and return the device to its compact form.

To use the stylus, ensure the stylus end is uncapped and extended. The capacitive stylus is compatible with most touch-screen devices, including smartphones and tablets.

  • Gently touch the stylus tip to your device's screen to navigate, select, or write.
  • The stylus is ideal for quick notes, navigating menus, or presentations.
  • After use, cap the stylus end to protect it and return the device to its compact form.

  1. Unscrew the pen body to separate the two halves.
  2. Carefully remove the old ink cartridge from the pen mechanism.
  3. Insert a new Nite Ize compatible pressurized ink cartridge, ensuring it is seated correctly.

Note: Use only genuine Nite Ize replacement cartridges or compatible pressurized cartridges to ensure optimal performance and waterproof ink properties.
