Maintenance

The Logitech K270 keyboard is designed with durability in mind, featuring a spill-resistant design and UV-coated keys to prevent fading.

• Cleaning: To clean the keyboard, gently wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Ensure the keyboard is powered off before cleaning.
