Operating Instructions

1. Switching Between Backpack and Rolling Mode

This 2-in-1 design allows you to easily switch between carrying the bag as a backpack or rolling it as a suitcase.

• Backpack Mode: Unzip the rear compartment to reveal the shoulder straps. Adjust the straps for a comfortable fit. Ensure the wheel cover is deployed to prevent dirt from the wheels transferring to your clothing.
• Rolling Mode: Tuck the shoulder straps into the dedicated rear compartment and zip it closed. Extend the telescopic handle. The integrated wheel cover protects the straps and your clothing from the wheels.

Maintenance

1. Cleaning Instructions

The backpack is made from thick polyester fabric and rigid PE plates with a waterproof bottom.

• For general cleaning, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap.
• Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
• Allow to air dry completely before storage.
• For stubborn stains, a soft brush can be used gently.

2. Wheel and Handle Care

• Periodically check the wheels for debris and clean as necessary to ensure smooth rolling.
• Ensure the telescopic handle extends and retracts smoothly. If it becomes stiff, a small amount of silicone lubricant can be applied to the extending parts.

Troubleshooting

• Handle not extending/retracting: Ensure the release button is fully pressed. Check for any obstructions in the telescopic mechanism.
• Wheels not rolling smoothly: Inspect wheels for trapped debris (e.g., hair, lint). Clean thoroughly.
• Combination lock issues: Double-check your set combination. If you forget the combination, contact MATEIN customer support for assistance.
• Zippers sticking: Apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or a graphite pencil lead to the zipper teeth to improve movement.
