Bluetooth Pairing

The Logitech Type+ keyboard connects wirelessly to your iPad Air 2 via Bluetooth. To pair the devices:

3. The keyboard will automatically attempt to connect. A blue light on the keyboard indicates it is connected. If not, press the Bluetooth pairing button on the keyboard (refer to keyboard layout for exact location, usually near function keys).

Operating the Keyboard Case

Typing and Viewing Positions

The case offers two primary viewing positions: typing mode and reading mode. The magnetic strip ensures the iPad is held securely at the optimal angle for each activity.

• Typing Mode: Position the iPad upright in the designated slot above the keyboard. This activates the keyboard and provides a comfortable typing angle.
• Reading Mode: Fold the keyboard behind the iPad. The smart power management feature will automatically turn off the keyboard, allowing for comfortable tablet use without accidental key presses.

Keyboard Features

The integrated keyboard provides a comfortable and efficient typing experience with well-spaced, concave keys. It includes a dedicated row of iOS shortcut keys for quick access to common functions such as Home, Lock, Volume, Play/Pause, and more.

Smart Power Management

The Logitech Type+ features smart power management. The keyboard automatically turns on when the iPad is placed in the typing position and turns off when the iPad is removed or the case is closed. This conserves battery life, providing up to 3 months of use on a single charge (based on 2 hours of daily use).

Care and Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Logitech Type+ keyboard case, follow these care guidelines:

• Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe down the exterior of the case and the keyboard. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the material.
• Storage: When not in use, keep the case closed to protect both the iPad and the keyboard. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Handling: While the case offers robust protection, avoid dropping or subjecting it to excessive force.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Logitech Type+ keyboard case, try the following solutions:

• Keyboard Not Connecting:
  • Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your iPad.
  • Verify the iPad is correctly seated in the typing position to activate the keyboard.
  • Check the keyboard's battery level. Although it has a long battery life, it may require charging if completely depleted.
  • If previously paired, try "forgetting" the device in your iPad's Bluetooth settings and re-pairing it.
• Keys Not Responding:
  • Ensure the keyboard is connected via Bluetooth.
  • Restart your iPad.
• iPad Not Staying in Position:
  • Ensure the iPad is firmly placed against the magnetic strip in the typing slot.
