Maintenance

Cleaning

• To clean the keycaps, use a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, keycaps can be carefully removed (using a keycap puller, not included) and washed with mild soap and water. Ensure they are completely dry before reattaching.
• Use compressed air to remove dust and debris from between the keys.
• Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as these can damage the keycaps or keyboard finish.

Storage

When not in use for extended periods, store the keyboard in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight. If storing for a long time, it is recommended to remove the AAA batteries to prevent leakage.

Troubleshooting

• Keyboard not responding (Wired):

  Ensure the USB-C cable is securely connected to both the keyboard and the computer. Try a different USB port on your computer or a different USB-C cable if available.

• Keyboard not connecting (Bluetooth):
  • Check if the AAA batteries are properly installed and have sufficient charge.
  • Ensure the keyboard is in Bluetooth pairing mode.
  • On your device, try "forgetting" or "removing" the keyboard from your Bluetooth device list and then re-pairing it.
  • Ensure your device's Bluetooth is enabled and discoverable.
  • Move the keyboard closer to your device to rule out range issues.

• Keys not registering or double-typing:

  This could be due to debris under the keycap. Refer to the cleaning instructions in the Maintenance section. If the issue persists, contact support.
