Maintenance

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and performance of your keyboard:

  • Cleaning: Regularly wipe the keyboard surface with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap solution, ensuring no liquid enters the key switches or internal components. The fingerprint-proof matte finish helps reduce visible smudges.
  • Keycap Cleaning: Keycaps can be carefully removed for thorough cleaning. Use a keycap puller (not included) to avoid damage. Clean keycaps with water and mild soap, then dry completely before reattaching.
  • Switch Maintenance: Due to the hot-swappable design, individual switches can be replaced if they become faulty. Refer to the Lenovo Accessory and Display Manager software or online resources for compatible switch types and replacement procedures.
  • Cable Care: The detachable braided cable should be handled with care. Avoid sharp bends or excessive pulling to prevent internal wire damage.
