How to use

Attach the square clip securely to a pocket edge, lapel, belt or the strap of a bag so the reel sits comfortably on the wearer. Connect the ID card or badge holder to the cord end using the provided attachment point. Pull the badge gently to extend it for scanning or presentation; allow the cord to retract slowly back into the housing to avoid stress on the mechanism. Periodically check the clip and cord for signs of wear and ensure the attachment remains secure.
