Maintenance
Proper care and maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Logitech MX Keys Mini keyboard.
Cleaning
To clean the keyboard, use a soft, lint-free cloth. For stubborn dirt, slightly dampen the cloth with water or a mild, non-abrasive cleaning solution. Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the keyboard's finish and components.

- Backlighting Not Working: Check if the backlighting is enabled and adjust its intensity using the dedicated function keys (F6/F7). Ensure the keyboard has sufficient battery charge.
- Keys Not Responding: Recharge the keyboard. If individual keys are unresponsive, ensure no debris is lodged beneath them.
