Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Logitech MK295 Wireless Combo, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Regularly wipe down the keyboard and mouse with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Spill-Proof Design: While the keyboard has a spill-proof design (tested under limited conditions with a maximum of 60 ml liquid spillage), it is not waterproof. Do not immerse the keyboard in liquid. In case of spills, immediately power off the keyboard and allow it to dry completely before reuse.
• Battery Replacement: Replace batteries when performance degrades. The keyboard uses 2 AAA batteries and the mouse uses 1 AA battery. Use the ON/OFF switches to conserve battery life when not in use.
• Storage: When not in use for extended periods, turn off both the keyboard and mouse to save battery life. Store the USB receiver inside the mouse's battery compartment to prevent loss.
