5. Maintenance

To maintain the performance and appearance of your keyboard:

• Clean the keyboard regularly with a soft, dry cloth.
• For stubborn dirt, slightly dampen the cloth with water or a mild cleaning solution. Avoid excessive moisture.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Keep the keyboard away from liquids and extreme temperatures.

6. Troubleshooting

• Keyboard not responding:
  • Check if the battery is correctly inserted and has sufficient charge. Replace the battery if necessary.
  • Ensure the USB-A receiver is securely plugged into a working USB port on your computer. Try a different USB port.
  • Move the keyboard closer to the USB receiver to rule out range issues.
  • Restart your computer.
• Keys are unresponsive or require hard presses:
  • Ensure the keyboard is clean and free from debris under the keys.
  • Verify battery charge. Low battery can sometimes affect key responsiveness.
• Incorrect key output (e.g., 'Z' types 'Y'):
  • The Hama WK-200 uses a QWERTZ (German) keyboard layout. Ensure your operating system's keyboard language setting matches this layout. If your system is set to QWERTY (US English) or another layout, key outputs may not correspond to the physical keycaps. Adjust your operating system's keyboard settings accordingly.
