Operating Instructions
Basic Operation
The Marvo KG946 functions as a standard QWERTY keyboard. Simply connect it to your computer, and it will be ready for use.
RGB Backlight Effects
The keyboard features 27 distinct RGB backlight effects. These effects can be cycled and customized using specific function key combinations.
- Changing Effects: Use the Fn key in combination with designated keys (e.g., Fn + Ins, Fn + Home, Fn + PgUp, etc.) to cycle through the various lighting modes. Refer to the keycap legends for specific combinations.
- Adjusting Brightness/Speed: Typically, Fn + Up/Down Arrow keys control brightness, and Fn + Left/Right Arrow keys control the speed of dynamic effects.

N-Key Rollover
The Marvo KG946 supports N-key rollover, meaning that every key press is registered independently, regardless of how many keys are pressed simultaneously. This feature is crucial for fast-paced gaming and ensures no commands are missed.
PBT Double-Shot Keycaps
The keyboard is equipped with durable PBT (Polybutylene Terephthalate) double-shot keycaps. These keycaps offer superior abrasion resistance, oil resistance, and a distinct tactile feel compared to standard ABS keycaps, ensuring legends do not fade over time.

Maintenance
Proper maintenance helps extend the life of your keyboard:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the surface of the keyboard. For deeper cleaning, you may use compressed air to remove dust and debris from between the keycaps. For stubborn dirt on keycaps, a slightly damp cloth with mild soap can be used, ensuring no liquid enters the keyboard.
- Storage: Store the keyboard in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Avoid Liquids: Do not expose the keyboard to liquids. Spills can cause permanent damage.
Troubleshooting
- Keyboard Not Responding:
- Ensure the USB cable is securely plugged into both the keyboard and the computer.
- Try plugging the keyboard into a different USB port.
- Restart your computer.
- Backlight Not Working or Incorrect:
- Check if the backlight is turned off (often via an Fn key combination).
- Cycle through different backlight effects using the Fn key combinations mentioned in the Operating Instructions.
- Ensure your computer's USB port is providing sufficient power.
- Specific Keys Not Working:
- Clean around the affected key to remove any debris that might be obstructing the switch.
