Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This pen comes ready to use. Simply remove the cap before writing. To replace the ink cartridge, unscrew the barrel from the grip section, remove the old refill, and insert a new compatible Pilot G1 refill.
Compatibility: The Pilot G1 05 is compatible with Pilot G1 series gel ink refills. It writes on most standard paper types. Use with caution on very thin or porous paper where ink feathering might occur.
Care: To ensure longevity and optimal performance:
- Always replace the cap when the pen is not in use to prevent the tip from drying out.
- Store pens tip-up or horizontally to maintain consistent ink flow.
- Clean the exterior of the pen with a slightly damp cloth if needed. Avoid using harsh solvents.
- If the ink flow becomes inconsistent, try writing on a clean sheet of paper or gently tapping the tip on a flat surface.
