Maintenance

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your keyboard.

• Cleaning the Keycaps:

  To clean the electroplated punk keycaps, gently wipe them with a soft, lint-free cloth dampened with a small amount of water or a mild, non-abrasive cleaning solution. Avoid excessive moisture. For deeper cleaning, keycaps can be carefully removed using a keycap puller (not included) and cleaned individually.

• Cleaning the Keyboard Base:

  Use a soft brush or compressed air to remove dust and debris from between the keys and from the keyboard's base. Wipe the surface with a dry or slightly damp cloth.

• Avoid Liquids: Do not spill liquids on the keyboard. In case of accidental spills, immediately disconnect the keyboard from your computer and allow it to dry completely before reconnecting.
• Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the keyboard in a clean, dry environment away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your T-WOLF T70 keyboard, try the following solutions:

• Keyboard Not Responding:
  • Ensure the USB cable is securely plugged into both the keyboard and the computer's USB port.
  • Try plugging the keyboard into a different USB port on your computer.
  • Restart your computer.
  • Test the keyboard on another computer to determine if the issue is with the keyboard or your system.
• Backlighting Not Working or Flickering:
  • Check if the backlight is turned off using the keyboard's function keys (e.g., Fn + specific F-key).
  • Ensure the keyboard is receiving sufficient power from the USB port. Try a different USB port.
  • If the issue persists, disconnect and reconnect the keyboard.
• Keys Not Registering or Double-Typing:
  • Clean around and under the affected keycaps to remove any debris that might be obstructing the switch.
