3. Initial Device Settings (for iPad/iOS users):

   If you experience issues with writing or drawing on your iPad/iOS device (e.g., only swiping and tapping work), adjust the following settings:

   • Go to Settings > Apple Pencil > Turn off Only Draw with Apple Pencil.
   • Alternatively, go to Settings > Notes > Turn off Only Draw with Apple Pencil.

   These settings ensure compatibility with third-party styluses. Other applications may also require similar adjustments.

Operating Instructions

Once powered on and configured, the CMARS Active Stylus Pen functions like a natural writing or drawing tool on your compatible touch screen device.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the stylus body and tips with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the stylus in water.
• Storage: Store the stylus in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Battery Care: To prolong battery life, avoid fully discharging the stylus frequently. Charge it when the low battery indicator flashes.

Troubleshooting

• Stylus not writing/drawing on iPad/iOS (only swiping/tapping):

  Refer to the "Initial Device Settings" in the Setup section. Ensure "Only Draw with Apple Pencil" is turned off in iPad/iOS Settings > Apple Pencil or Settings > Notes.

It instructs users to check iPad settings to turn off "Only Draw with Apple Pencil" and suggests checking pen tip tightness and power. A "No palm rejection" icon is also present.

• Stylus unresponsive or inconsistent:
  • Check Power: Ensure the stylus is charged. If the battery is low, the pen will not function correctly.
  • Check Pen Tip: The pen tip might be too tight or too loose. Try gently twisting the pen tip to ensure it is securely seated.
  • Screen Protector Interference: If you are using a protective glass film on your device, it might affect the stylus's responsiveness due to thickness. We recommend a protective film of 3mm or less.
• No Palm Rejection:

  This stylus does not support palm rejection. When using the stylus, avoid resting your palm on the screen to prevent unintended input.
• Not working with Chromebook/Windows:

  This stylus is not compatible with Chromebook or Microsoft Windows System devices.
