5. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Bullet Capacitive Stylus, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Wipe the rubber tip and aluminum body with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Storage: Store the stylus in a clean, dry place when not in use. The keyring attachment allows for secure storage with your keys or other items.
• Avoid Damage: Do not apply excessive force to the tip or bend the stylus, as this may damage its functionality.

6. Troubleshooting

If you experience issues with your Bullet Capacitive Stylus, consider the following:

• Unresponsive Touch: Ensure your device's screen is clean and free of smudges or debris. A dirty screen can interfere with stylus responsiveness.
• Inconsistent Performance: Check the stylus tip for any visible damage or wear. While durable, prolonged heavy use can affect performance.
• General Device Issues: If the stylus is unresponsive, test it on another capacitive touchscreen device to determine if the issue lies with the stylus or your primary device.
