Pen Nib Replacement
The Digital Pen AP32 uses replaceable nibs. When the nib wears down, use the included pen nib clip to carefully remove the old nib and insert a new one from the pen nib pack. Ensure the new nib is securely seated.
Cleaning the Tablet
To clean the tablet surface, use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. For stubborn smudges, lightly dampen the cloth with water or a mild screen cleaner. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as these can damage the surface.
