Setup
Follow these steps to set up your Nulea Ergonomic Keyboard:
- Unpack the Keyboard: Carefully remove the keyboard and all accessories from the packaging.
- Connect to Computer: The Nulea RT02 keyboard uses a wired USB-C connection. Plug the USB-C cable from the keyboard into an available USB port on your computer (Laptop, Gaming Console, or PC).
- Driver Installation: The keyboard is plug-and-play and typically does not require additional driver installation for basic functionality on Windows and Mac operating systems. Your system should automatically recognize the device.
- Adjust Tilt Legs: The keyboard features 4 foldable tilt legs. You can adjust the keyboard's tilt angle by setting up the front, back, or both-side legs to achieve your preferred ergonomic position. This helps in maintaining a natural wrist posture.
- Positioning: Place the keyboard on a flat, stable surface. The split and splayed design is intended to promote natural arm and hand positioning, keeping hands in line with shoulders.

Operating Instructions
The Nulea RT02 Ergonomic Keyboard is designed for comfortable and efficient typing. Here are key operational aspects:
Basic Typing
The keyboard features a standard 107-key layout. The split keyset and tented structure are designed to reduce forearm pronation and promote a natural typing posture. The keys are responsive for a tactile and comfortable typing experience.

Pillowed Palm Rest
The integrated palm rest features a large surface with skin-touching PU leather and memory foam. This provides support for your palms and wrists, reducing pressure on the median nerve and minimizing tension during extended use.

Multimedia and Shortcut Keys
The keyboard includes 17 multimedia shortcut keys for quick access to common functions. These keys enhance efficiency by allowing control over media playback, volume, and other system functions directly from the keyboard.
Built-in USB Ports
Two extra USB ports are integrated into the keyboard. These ports can be used for connecting or charging other devices such as a mouse, headphones, or USB dongles. They also support data transfer, making them suitable for portable external hard drives, eliminating the need for an external USB hub.

Maintenance
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Nulea Ergonomic Keyboard:
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down the keyboard surface regularly. For deeper cleaning, slightly dampen the cloth with water or a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid excessive moisture.
- Keycap Cleaning: For cleaning between keys, use compressed air to remove dust and debris.
- Palm Rest Care: The PU leather palm rest can be wiped with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals that may damage the material.
- Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the keyboard in a clean, dry environment away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Avoid Spills: Liquid spills can damage the internal components. In case of a spill, immediately disconnect the keyboard from your computer and allow it to dry completely before reconnecting.
