• If storing for an extended period, charge the battery to approximately 50% to prolong its lifespan.
• Use only the provided charging cable or a certified equivalent.

Troubleshooting

• Some users have reported issues with wireless connection after initial wired use; ensure the controller is properly disconnected from wired mode before attempting wireless pairing.

Buttons or Joysticks Not Responding

• Check for physical obstructions around the buttons or joysticks.
• Ensure the controller's firmware is up to date. Visit the official GuliKit website for firmware update tools and instructions.
• Perform a button test on your console or PC to diagnose specific unresponsive inputs.
• If a specific button, like a bumper, feels unresponsive or doesn't click, it may indicate a hardware issue.
