3. Setup and Placement

Using your CARDIAN RFID Blocking Cards is straightforward. No installation or activation is required. Simply place the card(s) in your wallet or cardholder alongside your other cards.

Placement Guidelines:

1. For Wallets: Place one CARDIAN card at the front of your stack of cards and another at the back. This creates a protective sandwich, shielding all cards in between.
2. For Card Slots: If your wallet has multiple card slots, ensure the CARDIAN card is positioned to cover the area where your most sensitive cards (credit, debit, ID) are stored.
3. For Passport Holders: Place a CARDIAN card directly adjacent to your passport to protect its embedded RFID chip.

The CARDIAN card works by drawing power from an incoming scanner's radio waves and using that energy to create a jamming signal. This signal scrambles the scanner's ability to read your personal data.

4. Operation

Once placed in your wallet or cardholder, the CARDIAN RFID Blocking Card operates continuously and automatically. It does not require any user interaction, batteries, or software updates.

How it Works:

• When an RFID or NFC scanner attempts to read your cards, the CARDIAN card detects the incoming radio waves.
• It then instantly activates, generating a powerful jamming signal that creates a 5cm protective field.
• This field prevents the scanner from successfully communicating with your sensitive cards, thus protecting your data.

5. Maintenance

The CARDIAN RFID Blocking Cards are designed for durability and require minimal maintenance.

• Cleaning: Wipe the card with a soft, damp cloth if it becomes dirty. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Storage: Store the card in your wallet or a cardholder. Avoid bending or excessive force, although the cards are designed to be robust.
• Longevity: The blocking technology is built to last for years under normal use.

6. Troubleshooting

The CARDIAN RFID Blocking Cards are passive devices and generally do not encounter operational issues. However, if you have concerns, consider the following:

Common Questions:

• How do I know it's working? The CARDIAN card works silently and automatically. Its effectiveness is demonstrated by the inability of RFID/NFC scanners to read your protected cards when the CARDIAN card is present. There are no lights or sounds to indicate operation.
• My card was still scanned. Ensure the CARDIAN card is positioned correctly within your wallet, ideally at the front and back of your card stack, to create a comprehensive protective field. The effective blocking range is approximately 5cm.
• What if I lose my wallet? The CARDIAN card includes a 'Lost & Found' QR code. If your wallet is found, the finder can scan this code to access information that may help return your wallet to you.
