Troubleshooting

Problem	Solution
Keyboard not responding or frequently turns off.	Ensure the keyboard is fully charged. Verify the ON/OFF switch on the bottom of the keyboard is in the "ON" position. Check if the USB receiver is securely plugged into a working USB port. Try plugging the USB receiver into a different USB port. Ensure the keyboard is within the effective range of the 2.4GHz receiver.
Keys are unresponsive or typing errors occur.	Clean the keyboard, especially around the affected keys, to remove any debris. Ensure the keyboard is fully charged, as low battery can affect performance. Re-pair the keyboard with the USB receiver by unplugging and re-plugging the receiver.
Backlight not working or too dim.	Ensure the keyboard is powered on. Use `FN` + `Up Arrow` to increase brightness. If the backlight is completely off, try pressing `FN` + `\\|` to cycle through modes, as some modes might be very dim or off. Charge the keyboard, as low battery can limit backlight functionality.
Keyboard not connecting to device.	Confirm the USB receiver is correctly inserted into the device. Ensure the keyboard's power switch is "ON". Restart your computer or device. Test the USB receiver in a different USB port. If using with a gaming console, ensure the console supports external USB keyboards.
