Troubleshooting

The cover doesn't fit my backpack.

Ensure your backpack is within the 35-liter capacity. Adjust the elastic straps to achieve a better fit. Check the shape of the bag, if it is an unusual shape, it may not fit.

The reflective material isn't very reflective.

Make sure the reflective side is clean and free of dirt or debris. Ensure the reflective side is facing the direction of traffic.

The cover is not staying in place.

Tighten the elastic straps and ensure they are securely fastened to your backpack. Check the elastic edges are fitting snugly around the bag.

Water is getting inside the backpack.

Ensure the cover is correctly fitted and that there are no tears or damage to the waterproof material. Check the zip of the backpack is correctly closed.
