Maintenance
1. Cleaning
To clean your keyboard, first disconnect it from your computer. Use a soft brush or compressed air to remove dust and debris from between the keycaps. For deeper cleaning, use the provided keycap puller to carefully remove keycaps and clean the switches and plate with a microfiber cloth lightly dampened with water or a mild cleaning solution. Ensure the keyboard is completely dry before reattaching keycaps and reconnecting.
2. Keycap and Switch Replacement
Use the included keycap puller to gently remove keycaps. For switch replacement (if compatible with hot-swappable switches, which this model supports for modding), use the switch puller to carefully extract the switch. Align new switches and keycaps correctly before pressing them firmly into place.
