5. Operating Instructions

5.1. Basic Usage

Once connected, the keyboard functions like a standard QWERTY keyboard. Simply begin typing.

To switch between paired Bluetooth devices or the 2.4Ghz connection:

• For 2.4Ghz connection: Select the dedicated 2.4Ghz channel (often indicated by a specific key or switch position).
• For Bluetooth devices: Press the corresponding Bluetooth channel key (e.g., Fn + 1, Fn + 2, Fn + 3, Fn + 4) to instantly switch to the desired paired device.

6. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to wipe the keyboard surface. For deeper cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap solution, ensuring no liquid enters the keyboard. Compressed air can be used to remove debris from between keys.

• Storage: Store the keyboard in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and excessive moisture.
• Avoid Spills: Keep liquids away from the keyboard to prevent damage.

7. Troubleshooting

• Keyboard not responding:
  • Ensure the keyboard is turned on.
  • Check battery level and replace/recharge if necessary.
  • For 2.4Ghz: Ensure the USB receiver is securely plugged in and the keyboard is in 2.4Ghz mode. Try a different USB port.
  • For Bluetooth: Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your device. Re-pair the keyboard if the connection is lost. Make sure the correct Bluetooth channel is selected on the keyboard.
• Lag or intermittent connection:
  • Move the keyboard closer to your device.
  • Avoid interference from other wireless devices (e.g., Wi-Fi routers, other Bluetooth devices).
  • Ensure the keyboard's batteries are not low.
• Keys not working correctly:
  • Clean the keys to remove any debris that might be obstructing them.
  • Restart your computer/device and reconnect the keyboard.

8. User Tips

• Multi-Device Efficiency: Take full advantage of the multi-device connection feature by pairing your keyboard with your desktop, laptop, and tablet. This allows for quick switching between tasks without needing multiple keyboards.
