5. Care and Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Ancable charging cable, please observe the following guidelines:
- Storage: Store the cable in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid tightly coiling the cable to prevent internal damage.
- Cleaning: If necessary, gently wipe the cable with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Handling: Always grasp the connector plugs when inserting or removing the cable, rather than pulling on the cable itself. This prevents strain on the cable's connections.
- Avoid Bending: While the cable features a durable PVC jacket, excessive or sharp bending should be avoided to prevent damage to the internal wires.
