Maintenance

Regular maintenance helps prolong the life and performance of your keyboard.

• Cleaning Keycaps: Use the provided keycap puller to remove keycaps. Clean them with a soft cloth dampened with mild soap and water. Ensure they are completely dry before reattaching.
• Cleaning the Keyboard Body: Use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth to wipe down the keyboard body. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but avoid excessive moisture.
• Dust Removal: Use compressed air to remove dust and debris from between the keycaps and switches.
• Avoid Liquids: Do not spill liquids on the keyboard. If a spill occurs, immediately disconnect the keyboard, dry it thoroughly, and allow it to air dry completely before reconnecting.

Troubleshooting

Keyboard Not Responding:

• Ensure the USB cable is securely connected to both the keyboard and the computer.
• Try connecting the keyboard to a different USB port on your computer.
• Test the keyboard on another computer to determine if the issue is with the keyboard or the computer's port/drivers.
