How to use

Use the USB Type-C side when connecting to hosts or cables that accept USB Type-C, and use the Micro-USB side where a Micro-USB connection is required. Ensure connectors are fully seated before beginning charging or data transfer. Disconnect by gently pulling the adapter straight out to avoid stress on cable ends.

Recommendations

Use the adapter with compliant cables and devices; it is designed for standard charging and data transfer. Avoid using the adapter with high-power charging standards or specialized data protocols unless explicitly supported by the connected devices and cables. Keep the adapter dry and store it in a protective pouch when not in use to prevent connector wear.
