6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your iClever BK09 keyboard, please consider the following common points:

• Not Pairing: Ensure the keyboard is in pairing mode (blinking indicator light) and your device's Bluetooth is enabled and discoverable. Try restarting both the keyboard (by folding and unfolding) and your device.
• Keys Not Responding: Check the battery level. If low, charge the keyboard. Ensure it is properly connected to your device.
• Accidental Key Presses: The 15mm key pitch is smaller than standard laptop keys. Adjusting to the layout may take some time. Be mindful of the Num Lock key, as it can change the function of the numeric pad keys.
• No Wired Mode: Please note that the BK09 is Bluetooth-only and does not support a wired connection via USB.
