Setup

Follow these steps to set up your Logitech MK850 Wireless Desktop Keyboard and Mouse Combo.

The keyboard and mouse come with pre-installed batteries. To activate them, remove any battery pull tabs if present. Ensure the power switches on both the keyboard and mouse are in the 'ON' position. The power switch for the keyboard is typically located on the top right edge, and for the mouse, it's on the bottom.

  1. Locate the Logitech Unifying USB Receiver in your package.
  2. Plug the Unifying Receiver into an available USB port on your computer.

Option B: Bluetooth Smart Technology

  1. Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your computer or device.
  2. On the keyboard, press and hold one of the Easy-Switch keys (1, 2, or 3) until the LED light next to it starts blinking rapidly. This indicates it's in pairing mode.
  3. On the mouse, press the Easy-Switch button on the bottom until the LED light starts blinking rapidly.
  4. On your computer, go to Bluetooth settings and select "Add a device" or "Pair new device".

Maintenance

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Logitech MK850 combo.

Battery Replacement

  • Keyboard: The keyboard operates on standard batteries and has a battery life of up to 36 months. When the battery indicator light (usually near the power switch) turns red, it's time to replace the batteries. Open the battery compartment on the underside of the keyboard.
  • Mouse: The mouse also uses standard batteries and offers a battery life of up to 24 months. Replace batteries when the indicator light signals low power. The battery compartment is located on the bottom of the mouse.
  • Always use fresh, high-quality batteries of the specified type (refer to the battery compartment for details, typically AA or AAA).

Cleaning

  • Keyboard and Mouse: Use a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with water or a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid excessive moisture. Do not spray cleaner directly onto the devices.
  • Monitor Cleaning Kit: Utilize the included monitor cleaning kit for your display. Follow the instructions provided with the kit for best results. Typically, spray the cleaning solution onto the microfiber cloth, then gently wipe the screen.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Logitech MK850 combo, try the following troubleshooting steps:

  • No Connection (Unifying Receiver):
    • Ensure the Unifying Receiver is securely plugged into a working USB port. Try a different USB port.

    • Download and run the Logitech Unifying Software from the Logitech support website to re-pair the devices.
  • No Connection (Bluetooth):
    • Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your computer/device.
    • Remove the keyboard and mouse from your device's Bluetooth list and attempt to re-pair them.
    • Make sure the Easy-Switch key (1, 2, or 3) on the keyboard and the Easy-Switch button on the mouse are set to the correct channel and are blinking for pairing.
    • Try restarting your computer/device.
  • Lagging or Intermittent Connection:
    • Move the keyboard and mouse closer to the receiver or Bluetooth device.
    • Avoid placing the receiver near other electrical devices that might cause interference (e.g., Wi-Fi routers, cordless phones).
    • Ensure fresh batteries are installed.
  • Keys Not Responding / Mouse Not Moving:
    • Check battery levels and replace if necessary.
    • Ensure the devices are connected (see connection steps above).
