• LED Backlighting: The keyboard features multi-color LED backlighting. While individual key colors are fixed by row (e.g., red, blue, orange, green, yellow, purple), various lighting effects can be cycled through using specific function key combinations. Refer to the keyboard's quick start guide or manufacturer's website for detailed key combinations to change lighting modes.
• WASD and Arrow Key Swap: For certain games or user preferences, the WASD keys can be swapped with the arrow keys. This function is typically activated by pressing the Fn + W key combination. Pressing it again will revert the keys to their default function.
• Media Control Keys: Utilize the Function (Fn) key in combination with the F-keys (F1-F12) for media control and other shortcuts. Specific combinations may vary; consult the product's quick start guide for a full list.

Mouse Functions

• DPI Adjustment: The gaming mouse includes buttons for on-the-fly DPI (Dots Per Inch) adjustment, allowing you to change cursor sensitivity to suit different tasks or game scenarios.
• RGB Backlighting: The mouse features RGB Chroma lighting with various effects and breathing modes. These can often be adjusted via buttons on the mouse or through dedicated software if available.

Maintenance

• Cleaning the Keyboard:
  • Disconnect the keyboard from your PC before cleaning.
  • Use a can of compressed air to remove dust and debris from between the keycaps.
  • Wipe the keycaps and keyboard surface with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid excessive moisture.
  • The keyboard is designed with drainage holes for accidental spills, which can help mitigate damage from liquid exposure. Ensure the keyboard is completely dry before reconnecting.
• Cleaning the Mouse:
  • Disconnect the mouse from your PC.
  • Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the surface of the mouse.
  • For the optical sensor, use a cotton swab lightly dampened with rubbing alcohol to gently clean the sensor area.
• Cable Management: Avoid sharp bends or excessive pulling on the USB cables to prevent damage.

Troubleshooting

• Device Not Responding:
  • Ensure the USB cables are securely plugged into the PC's USB ports.
  • Try plugging the devices into different USB ports.
  • Restart your computer.
  • Check your operating system's device manager to see if the devices are recognized.
• Keyboard Backlighting Issues:
  • If the backlighting is not working or is stuck on one mode, try cycling through the lighting effects using the designated function keys.
  • Ensure the backlighting is not turned off (some keyboards have a toggle for this).
• Mouse Inaccuracy or Tracking Issues:
  • Clean the mouse's optical sensor and the mouse pad surface.
  • Adjust the DPI settings using the mouse's dedicated DPI buttons.
  • Ensure the mouse is used on a suitable surface (a mouse pad is recommended).
  • Some users have reported slight inaccuracy when moving the mouse very fast; this may be a characteristic of the sensor at extreme speeds.
• Key Faults or Unresponsive Keys:
  • Ensure no debris is lodged under the keycap. Gently remove the keycap (if removable) and clean the switch area.
  • If a specific key consistently fails, it may indicate a switch issue.
