3. Setup and Operation
3.1 Extending the Cable
To extend the cable, gently pull both ends of the cable simultaneously until it reaches the desired length. Avoid pulling only one side, as this may cause the retraction mechanism to jam.
3.2 Retracting the Cable
To retract the cable, pull both ends slightly further apart until you hear a click, then release. The cable will automatically retract into its housing. If it does not retract smoothly, gently pull both ends again and release.
