5. Care and Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and continued protection offered by your FINTIE Carrying Case, follow these simple care instructions:

• Cleaning the Exterior: The EVA shell is water-resistant. For light dirt or spills, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Cleaning the Interior: Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the interior lining. For dust or lint, a lint roller or a piece of adhesive tape can be used.
• Drying: If the case gets wet, allow it to air dry completely before closing or storing your console inside. Do not use direct heat sources for drying.
• Storage: Store the case in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
• Avoid Overfilling: Do not overfill the case, as this can stress the zippers and potentially damage the contents.

6. Troubleshooting

Issue: Console does not fit or is too snug.

Solution: Ensure you are using the correct model of Nintendo Switch. This case is designed for the original Nintendo Switch (2017) and the Nintendo Switch OLED Model (2021) with Joy-Cons attached. It is not compatible with the smaller Nintendo Switch Lite or larger accessories like the dock or Pro Controllers.

Issue: Zipper is difficult to close or gets stuck.

Solution: Check if any items are obstructing the zipper path. Ensure the case is not overfilled. If the zipper is still stiff, gently rub a pencil lead or zipper lubricant along the teeth.

Issue: Accessories do not fit in the mesh pocket.

Solution: The mesh pocket is intended for small, flat accessories such as charging cables, earbuds, or extra Joy-Cons. Larger items like the Nintendo Switch dock, Pro Controllers, or bulky power adapters will not fit.
