Maintenance

Cleaning the Keyboard

To clean your keyboard, disconnect it from your computer. Use a soft, lint-free cloth slightly dampened with water or a mild cleaning solution to wipe down the keycaps and chassis. For dust and debris between keys, use compressed air.

Keycap Removal (Optional)

If you need to clean under the keycaps, use a keycap puller (not included) to carefully remove them. Reinstall by aligning the keycap with the switch stem and pressing down gently until it clicks into place.

Caution: Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as they may damage the keyboard's finish or keycap legends.

• Try connecting the keyboard to a different USB port on your computer.
• Restart your computer.

Keys Not Registering

• Check for any physical obstructions under the keycaps.
• If a specific key is not working, it might indicate a switch issue.
