3.3 Important Considerations
- The FineTouch Capacitive Stylus does not support palm rejection. Avoid resting your palm on the screen while using the stylus if your device does not have built-in palm rejection technology.
- The stylus does not support pressure sensitivity. Line thickness and opacity will depend on the application you are using.
4. Maintenance
Proper care will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your stylus.
- Cleaning the Tip: If the stylus becomes less responsive, gently clean the clear disc tip with a soft, lint-free cloth. Do not use abrasive materials or harsh chemicals.
- Protecting the Tip: When not in use, always replace the threaded cap over the clear disc tip to protect it from dust, dirt, and damage.
- Storage: Store the stylus in a clean, dry place. The built-in metal clip allows you to attach it to a shirt pocket, jacket, or device case for convenient and secure storage.

5. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your stylus, consider the following common solutions:
- Stylus Unresponsive:
- Ensure the clear disc tip is making full contact with the screen.
- Clean the clear disc tip and your device's screen to remove any dirt or smudges that might interfere with conductivity.
- Verify your device's touchscreen is functioning correctly with a finger.
- Inaccurate Input:
- Ensure the clear disc tip is clean. Debris can affect precision.
- Hold the stylus at a comfortable angle that allows the disc to lie flat on the screen.
