Troubleshooting

Zipper feels stiff or difficult to slide

Apply a small amount of graphite lubricant to the zipper teeth or wipe them down to ensure no debris is stuck in the track.

Laptop compartment feels tight with a 16-inch device

Ensure the laptop is placed squarely at the bottom of the compartment to maximize vertical clearance for the zipper closure.

Water-resistant pocket interior is damp

Leave the side pocket fully unzipped in an area with good airflow to allow the moisture to evaporate completely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maximize the life of your Tumi Alpha Bravo, register the unique Tracer number on the Tumi website upon receipt. When cleaning, avoid harsh chemical solvents; use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap to wipe down the nylon surface. Because the material is water-resistant, ensure the bag is completely dry after use in heavy rain before storing it in a closet to prevent moisture buildup. Ensure that electronic devices placed in the padded compartments are within the specified dimensions (15-inch PC / 16-inch MacBook) to allow the zippers to close without excessive tension.
