  • Power Switch: A power button is located on the keyboard, allowing you to conserve battery life when not in use.

Maintenance

Battery Replacement

  • Follow the battery installation steps outlined in the "Setup" section to replace old batteries with new ones.
  • Dispose of used batteries responsibly according to local regulations.

Cleaning

The keyboard is designed to be splash-resistant, meaning it can withstand minor spills. However, it is not waterproof and should not be submerged in liquid.

  • To clean the keyboard and mouse, use a soft, damp cloth.
  • Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • For spills, immediately power off the device, disconnect it, and gently wipe away the liquid. Allow to air dry completely before re-use.

Troubleshooting

Connection Issues

  • No Response: Ensure both the keyboard and mouse are powered on and that the nano-receiver is securely plugged into a working USB port on your computer.
  • Intermittent Connection: Try plugging the nano-receiver into a different USB port, preferably one closer to the keyboard and mouse. Avoid placing the receiver near other wireless devices or large metal objects that might cause interference.
  • Battery Check: If devices are unresponsive, replace the batteries in both the keyboard and mouse.
  • Compatibility: The Logitech Wireless Combo MK270 is compatible with Windows 10 or later, Windows 8, 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP, and Chrome OS. It is not Bluetooth compatible. Ensure your operating system is supported.
