4. Setup & Usage
- Connect to Power Source: Insert the USB-A end of the cable into a compatible USB-A charger or a computer's USB-A port. Ensure the power source supports the desired charging speed (e.g., 18W for fast charging).
- Connect to Device: Insert the 90-degree USB-C end into your device's USB-C port. The right-angle design allows for a flush connection, reducing cable strain and improving ergonomics.
- Charging: Once connected, your device should begin charging automatically. The cable supports fast charging for compatible devices.
- Data Transfer: When connected to a computer, your device should be recognized for data transfer. You can then transfer files at up to 480 Mbps.
Important Note on USB-A Orientation: The USB-A connector is not reversible. When plugging into a USB-A port, ensure the correct orientation. The 90-degree bend on the USB-A end will direct the cable either upwards or downwards depending on the port's orientation. Consider this when planning your setup to ensure the cable bends in the desired direction.

6. Care and Maintenance
- Storage: Store the cable in a clean, dry place away from extreme temperatures. Avoid tightly coiling or bending the cable at sharp angles to prevent internal damage.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the cable and connectors. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents.
- Handling: Always grasp the connector head when plugging or unplugging the cable, rather than pulling on the cable itself.
7. Troubleshooting
- Device Not Charging/Connecting:
- Ensure both ends of the cable are securely plugged into the device and power source/computer.
- Verify that the power source (charger, USB port) is functional.
- Check if your device's case thickness exceeds 0.08 inches (2mm), as this may prevent the 90-degree connector from fully seating.
- Test the cable with another compatible device or power source to isolate the issue.
- Slow Charging:
- Ensure your power adapter supports fast charging (e.g., 18W or higher) and is compatible with your device's fast charging protocol.
- Confirm that your device itself supports fast charging.
- Data Transfer Issues:
- Ensure your device is set to "File Transfer" mode (if applicable) when connected to a computer.
- Verify that the computer's USB-A port is functioning correctly.
- Remember that this cable does not support video transmission.
