The keyboard comes with LEOBOG SpaceCrystal Switches, known for their smooth operation and durability due to POM material construction. When replacing switches, gently pull the old switch out using a switch puller and align the new switch's pins with the PCB sockets before pressing it firmly into place.

Cleaning and Care

• Keycaps: The PBT keycaps are durable. For cleaning, remove them using a keycap puller and wash with mild soap and water. Ensure they are completely dry before reattaching.
• Keyboard Body: Wipe the keyboard body with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Switches: Due to the POM material's self-lubricating properties, the SpaceCrystal switches require minimal maintenance. Avoid disassembling switches unless necessary.

Troubleshooting

• Keyboard not responding:
  • Ensure the cable is securely connected for wired mode.
  • For wireless modes, check battery level and ensure the receiver is properly plugged in (2.4GHz) or Bluetooth is paired correctly.
  • Try restarting your computer or device.
• RGB lighting not working:
  • Check if the lighting is turned off via the knob or FN+key combination.
  • Ensure the keyboard has sufficient power.
  • If using macro software, verify settings.
• Keys not registering or double-typing:
  • This could indicate a faulty switch. Utilize the hot-swappable feature to replace the problematic switch.
  • Ensure the switch is fully seated in its socket.
• Bluetooth connection issues:
  • Unpair the keyboard from your device and re-pair it.
  • Ensure no other devices are interfering with the Bluetooth signal.
