4. Maintenance

4.1 Cleaning

• Keycaps: Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap and water to clean the keycaps. Ensure they are completely dry before reattaching.
• Keyboard Body: Wipe the keyboard body with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid excessive moisture.
• Dust Removal: Use compressed air to remove dust and debris from between the keycaps and switches.

4.2 Hot-Swappable Switches

The X65PRO HE features hot-swappable magnetic switches, allowing for easy replacement or customization without soldering.

1. Removing a Switch: Use a switch puller tool (not included) to gently grip the switch and pull it straight up.
2. Installing a Switch: Align the pins of the new switch with the holes on the PCB. Press down gently until the switch clicks into place. Ensure the switch is seated correctly and functions properly.

5. Troubleshooting

5.1 Keyboard Not Responding

• Check Connection: Ensure the USB-C cable is securely connected, or the 2.4GHz receiver is properly plugged in, or Bluetooth is paired.
• Power Switch: Verify the keyboard's power switch is in the "ON" position.
• Battery Level: If in wireless mode, ensure the battery is charged. Connect the USB-C cable to charge.
• Try Different Port/Device: Test the keyboard on a different USB port or computer to rule out port or device issues.

5.2 RGB Lighting Not Working Correctly

• Check Settings: Use the web-based driver to verify RGB settings and ensure lighting is enabled.

• Reset: Perform a factory reset (if available via driver or specific key combination) to restore default lighting.

5.3 Keys Not Registering or Double-Typing

• Actuation Point: Adjust the actuation point for the affected key(s) using the web-based driver. A very low actuation point might cause unintended presses.
