Operating Instructions

1. Folding and Unfolding the Keyboard

To unfold the keyboard, simply open the two side panels outwards until they lie flat. The keyboard will automatically power on. To fold, close the side panels inwards. The keyboard will automatically power off and enter sleep mode.

2. Switching Between Connected Devices

Once multiple devices are paired, you can seamlessly switch between them with a single click:

• For Keyboard: Press Fn + 2.4G, Fn + BT1, or Fn + BT2 to switch to the desired connected device.
• For Mouse: Use the mode switch button on the bottom of the mouse to toggle between 2.4G, BT1, and BT2.

3. Adjusting Mouse DPI

The mouse has three adjustable DPI settings (1000/1600/2400) to suit your precision needs. Press the DPI switch button located on the top of the mouse (usually near the scroll wheel) to cycle through the settings.

4. Multimedia Function Keys (Keyboard)

The keyboard features a row of multimedia function keys (F1-F12) that provide quick access to various controls. To use these functions, press the Fn key simultaneously with the desired function key. You can also press Fn + Esc (Fn Lock) to toggle the default behavior of the F-keys between standard F-keys and multimedia functions.

5. Quiet Operation

The keyboard features whisper-quiet scissor switches and low-profile keys, while the mouse uses 25dB micro-switches. This design minimizes noise during typing and clicking, making the combo ideal for quiet environments like libraries, meetings, or flights.

Maintenance

1. Cleaning

To clean the keyboard and mouse, use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. For stubborn dirt, slightly dampen the cloth with water or a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the surface.

2. Battery Care

To maximize battery life, ensure the devices are fully charged before first use. The keyboard and mouse feature an auto-sleep function to conserve power when not in use. The keyboard has a standby time of up to 150 days, and the mouse up to 200 days. Recharge the devices when the low battery indicator appears.
