Setup

Powering On/Off

Connecting to Devices

The K850 keyboard supports connection to up to three devices via Bluetooth or the Logitech Unifying Receiver. To connect:

1. Ensure the keyboard is powered on.
2. Press and hold one of the Easy-Switch keys (1, 2, or 3) located above the numeric keypad until the LED indicator next to the key starts blinking rapidly. This indicates the keyboard is in pairing mode.
3. On your computer, tablet, or smartphone, navigate to your Bluetooth settings and select "Logitech K850" from the list of available devices.
4. Follow any on-screen prompts to complete the pairing process. The LED will glow solid for 5 seconds when connected.
5. To switch between paired devices, simply press the corresponding Easy-Switch key (1, 2, or 3).

Adjusting Keyboard Angle

The keyboard features adjustable tilt legs on the underside, allowing you to set your preferred typing angle for optimal comfort. Gently flip out the legs to elevate the keyboard, or fold them in for a flat typing surface.

Operating the Keyboard

The Logitech K850 provides a comfortable and efficient typing experience. The integrated cushioned palm rest supports your wrists, reducing strain during extended use. The full-sized layout includes a numeric keypad for data entry and dedicated function keys for various shortcuts.

Multi-Device Switching

Utilize the Easy-Switch keys (1, 2, 3) to seamlessly transition between your connected devices. A quick press of the desired key will switch the keyboard's active connection.

Function Keys

The top row of keys (F1-F12) serves dual purposes. By default, they perform media control and other common functions. To use them as standard F-keys, press the Fn key in combination with the desired F-key.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Logitech K850 keyboard, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Use a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with water or a mild cleaning solution to wipe down the keys and surfaces. Avoid excessive moisture.
• Battery Replacement: The keyboard operates on batteries. When the battery indicator light turns red, it's time to replace them. Refer to the battery compartment on the underside of the keyboard for specific battery type and replacement instructions.
• Storage: When not in use for extended periods, turn off the keyboard to conserve battery life. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
