Troubleshooting
Wheels are sticking or difficult to roll
Check for any debris or obstructions around the wheel housing. Clean the wheels with a damp cloth and ensure they spin freely.
Telescoping handle is not extending or retracting smoothly
Ensure the lock mechanism is fully disengaged. Check for any blockages within the handle tubes. If issues persist, avoid forcing it, as this could cause damage.
Shoulder straps are difficult to tuck away
Ensure the backpack is not overstuffed, as this can impede the straps. Gently guide the straps into the compartment and ensure they lie flat.
Material appears dirty or stained
Spot clean the affected area with a mild soap and water solution using a damp cloth. Rinse with a clean damp cloth and allow to air dry.
