Maintenance

• Keep the device clean and free from dust and debris. Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.
• Avoid exposing the device to extreme temperatures, humidity, or direct sunlight.
• Do not attempt to disassemble or repair the device yourself, as this will void the warranty.
• Store the device in a safe place when not in use, ideally using the included Velcro cable tie to keep the cable organized.

Troubleshooting

Device Not Recognized:

• Ensure the card reader is securely plugged into a functioning USB port on your host device.
• Try connecting the card reader to a different USB port or a different host device to rule out port or device issues.
• Verify that your operating system is up to date.

Memory Card Not Reading:

• Ensure the memory card is inserted correctly into its designated slot. Refer to the "Inserting Memory Cards" section for proper orientation.
• Check if the memory card is damaged or corrupted. Try using a different memory card to isolate the issue.
• Ensure the memory card is not write-protected (if applicable).

Slow Data Transfer:

• Confirm that the card reader is connected to a USB 3.0 or USB-C 3.1 port on your host device. Connecting to a USB 2.0 port will result in slower speeds.
• The actual transfer speed may vary depending on the memory card's speed class and the host device's capabilities.
• Avoid running multiple data-intensive applications during transfer.
