Maintenance

Cleaning Your Keyboard

  • Disconnect the keyboard from your computer before cleaning.
  • Use a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with water or a mild cleaning solution to wipe down the keycaps and casing.
  • For dust and debris between keycaps, use compressed air.
  • Avoid spraying liquids directly onto the keyboard.

Keycap Removal and Installation

The PBT double-shot keycaps are durable. If you need to remove them for deep cleaning or customization, use a keycap puller. Gently pull straight up on the keycap. When reinstalling, align the keycap with the switch stem and press down firmly until it clicks into place.

Troubleshooting

Keyboard Not Responding (Wired)

  • Ensure the USB-C cable is securely connected to both the keyboard and the computer.
  • Try connecting the keyboard to a different USB port on your computer.
  • Test the keyboard on another computer to rule out system-specific issues.

Keyboard Not Connecting (Bluetooth)

  • Check if the AAA batteries are properly installed and have sufficient charge. Replace if necessary.
  • Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your device.
  • Put the keyboard into pairing mode again.
  • Remove the keyboard from your device's Bluetooth list and attempt to re-pair.
  • Ensure no other devices are interfering with the Bluetooth signal.

Keys Not Registering / Double Typing

  • This can sometimes be caused by dust or debris under the keycap. Try cleaning the affected key.
  • Ensure the keyboard firmware is up to date (check Leopold's official website for updates).
