פּראָסט ישוז און סאַלושאַנז

• Wheel is Off-Center: If the wheel is not centered after calibration, refer to the Thrustmaster support website's FAQ section for this model. This is a common issue with an easy fix, often involving a specific calibration procedure.
• Squeaking Noise from Belts: A squeaking noise may occasionally occur from the internal belts after some hours of use. This often resolves itself with continued use. If persistent, ensure the device is clean and free from obstructions.
• "Hot Electronics" Smell: A slight odor resembling hot electronics may be present when the device is new or during initial heavy use. This typically dissipates over time and is not indicative of a fault unless accompanied by other issues or excessive heat.
• Buttons Not Working / Calibration Issues: Ensure the latest drivers and firmware are installed (especially for PC). Re-calibrate the wheel through the Thrustmaster control panel. Check all connections are secure.
• מאַכט ישוז: Ensure the power cable is securely connected to both the wheel base and a functional wall outlet. Verify the outlet provides the correct voltage. Avoid using damaged cables or non-standard power sources.
