4. Troubleshooting
This section addresses common concerns regarding the laptop sleeve.
| Issue | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Laptop does not fit | Incorrect laptop size or laptop has a bulky hard case. | Verify your laptop's dimensions against the sleeve's internal dimensions (12.31” x 8.71” x 0.61”). The sleeve is designed for a snug fit; a very thick hard case might prevent proper closure. |
| Zipper is stiff or stuck | Dust/debris in zipper teeth or misalignment. | Gently clean the zipper teeth with a small brush. Apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (e.g., beeswax or silicone spray) if needed. Do not force the zipper. |
| Sleeve appears dirty | Accumulation of dust or minor stains. | Refer to the "Maintenance and Care" section for cleaning instructions. |
