Simple care and maintenance will ensure optimum performance from your Wacom product.
Keep the pen and pen display clean and free of dust and dirt.
Replace your pen nibs frequently to avoid scratching the surface with worn pen nibs.
Clean the surface using an anti-static cloth or slightly damp cloth and light pressure. Do not use detergent.
Use and store your pen display and pen in a clean, dry location, and avoid extremes in temperature.
Do not disassemble the pen tablet or the pen, except to add a color ring to the pen. Taking apart the product will void your warranty.
Important: Take care to not spill liquids onto your pen display or pen. Both contain electronic parts that will fail if exposed to liquids.
Replacing the pen nib
To protect your pen display from scratches and for best performance, replace your pen nib when it becomes too short or has a sharp edge. A nib should be replaced when it is approximately 1 mm (1/25 inch) in length. Replacement nibs and a nib removal tool are provided inside the pen case.
If you need pen nibs or other accessories, please visit the Store page of the Wacom website.
To replace the pen nib:
Clasp the old nib and pull it straight out of the pen using the nib removal tool, a pair of tweezers, needle-nosed pliers, or similar tool.
Slide the end of the new nib straight into the barrel of the pen and push the nib slowly and firmly until it stops.
Note: Stroke nibs are spring-loaded, providing additional tactile feedback when you are working an Airbrush. They are installed in the same manner as a standard pen nib.
