5. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your aghi Hall Effect Bluetooth Controller, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the controller. For stubborn dirt, slightly dampen the cloth with water or a mild cleaning solution. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Storage: Store the controller in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and humidity.
• Battery Care: Avoid fully discharging the battery frequently. Charge the controller regularly, even if not in use for extended periods, to maintain battery health. Do not expose the battery to high temperatures.
• Handling: Avoid dropping the controller or subjecting it to strong impacts, as this can damage internal components.

6. Troubleshooting

Connectivity Issues:

• Controller not pairing: Ensure the controller is charged. Try restarting both the controller and the device you are trying to connect to. Make sure no other Bluetooth devices are interfering.
• Android game compatibility: For some Android games (e.g., Call of Duty, Apex Legends), use the A + HOME button combination to connect as an "Xbox Wireless Controller" instead of the standard "Gamepad" mode (B + HOME).
