Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life of your keyboard:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down the keyboard surface. For deeper cleaning, a slightly damp cloth can be used, ensuring no liquid enters the key switches. Avoid harsh chemicals.

- Storage: When not in use for extended periods, turn off the keyboard using the power switch to conserve battery life. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your keyboard, refer to the following common solutions:
- Keyboard Not Responding:

- Check if the USB dongle is securely plugged into your computer's USB port. Try a different USB port.
- Replace the batteries with fresh AAA batteries.
- Restart your computer.
- Typing Errors (e.g., double letters, incorrect keys):
- The ergonomic layout may require an adjustment period. Continue practicing to adapt to the new hand placement.
- Ensure the keyboard is on a stable, flat surface.
- Indicator Lights Turn Off:
- This is normal behavior. The Num Lock, Caps Lock, and Function Lock indicator lights are designed to turn off after approximately 5 seconds of inactivity to conserve battery power. They will illuminate again upon key press.
