Maintenance

• Keep the device clean and dry. Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures or moisture.
• Clean the magnetic surfaces regularly to ensure optimal grip and charging efficiency.
• Store the device in a cool, dry place when not in use.

Troubleshooting

• Remote not pairing:

  Ensure the remote is charged. Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds to re-enter pairing mode. Check your phone's Bluetooth settings and ensure the device is visible and selected. For iPhone, verify accessibility settings are enabled as described in the Setup section.
• Phone not charging wirelessly:

  Ensure your phone is MagSafe compatible or has the magnetic ring correctly applied. Verify the MagCam V2 grip module is charged. Check for any obstructions between the phone and the charging module. Ensure the phone is correctly aligned on the magnetic charging surface.

• Magnetic attachment feels weak:

  Ensure the magnetic surfaces on both the phone/ring and the grip are clean. If using a phone case, ensure it is thin enough not to interfere with the magnetic connection. The magnetic ring should be applied directly to the phone or a smooth, flat case.
