How to use

Unscrew or pull off the cap to expose the nib, then install a compatible cartridge or fit a converter to use bottled ink. After fitting the ink supply, recap the pen briefly if using a converter to allow the feed to prime. Hold the pen at a comfortable angle and write with light pressure; fountain pens flow with minimal force. After use, replace the cap to prevent the nib from drying. Clean the nib and feed periodically by flushing with water when changing ink colors or after extended storage.

Usage recommendations

Use high-quality fountain-pen ink to maintain reliable flow and to avoid clogging. Store the pen horizontally or nib-up if not in regular use to reduce the risk of leakage. For long-term preservation of the anodized finish, avoid abrasive cleaners and wipe the surface with a soft cloth.
