6. Maintenance
6.1 Cleaning
To clean your keyboard, power it off and disconnect it from any devices. Use a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with water or a mild cleaning solution. For keycaps, the PBT material is durable and resistant to oil, making it easy to maintain. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
6.2 Battery Care
To prolong battery life, avoid fully discharging the keyboard frequently. Charge it regularly using the provided Type-C cable. If storing the keyboard for an extended period, charge it to about 50% and store it in a cool, dry place.
7. Troubleshooting
- Keyboard not connecting via 2.4G Wireless: Ensure the 2.4G receiver is securely plugged into a USB port and the keyboard switch is set to '2.4G'. Try a different USB port.
- Keyboard not connecting via Bluetooth: Ensure the keyboard switch is set to 'BT'. Make sure Bluetooth is enabled on your device and the keyboard is in pairing mode. Remove any previous pairings and try pairing again.
- Keys not responding: Check the connection mode. If wired, ensure the cable is secure. If wireless, check battery level and connection. Try restarting the keyboard and your device.
- Backlight not working: Ensure the backlight is turned on using the FN + Backspace combination. Check the battery level.
- Battery not charging: Ensure the Type-C cable is properly connected to both the keyboard and the power source. Try a different cable or power source.
8. User Tips
- Device Compatibility: While the M68 keyboard is designed for broad compatibility with desktops, laptops, and tablets, always ensure your specific device (e.g., gaming console like Sony 5) supports standard USB HID (Human Interface Device) or Bluetooth keyboard profiles for full functionality.
