Opretholdelse

1. Rengøring af tastaturet

• Frakobl tastaturet fra din enhed, før du rengør det.
• Brug en tastehætteaftrækker til at fjerne tastehætterne for grundig rengøring.
• Use a soft brush or compressed air to remove dust and debris from between the keys and switches.
• Tør tastehætter af med annonceamp en klud og en mild sæbeopløsning om nødvendigt, og tør derefter grundigt, inden du sætter den på igen.
• Tastaturet må ikke nedsænkes i vand, og der må ikke anvendes skrappe kemikalier.

2. Batteripleje

• Undgå at udsætte tastaturet for ekstreme temperaturer.
• Charge the battery regularly to maintain its lifespan, even if not used frequently.
• Hvis tastaturet opbevares i længere tid, skal det oplades til cirka 50% inden opbevaring.

Fejlfinding

1. Tastaturet reagerer ikke

• Kablet tilstand: Sørg for, at USB-kablet er korrekt tilsluttet til både tastaturet og computeren. Prøv en anden USB-port eller et andet kabel.
• 2.4 GHz trådløs tilstand: Ensure the 2.4GHz receiver is plugged in and the keyboard is switched to 2.4GHz mode. Try re-pairing by unplugging and re-plugging the receiver.
• Bluetooth-tilstand: Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your device and the keyboard is in Bluetooth pairing mode. Re-pair the device if necessary.
• Batteri: Check the keyboard's battery level. Connect the keyboard to a power source to charge it.

2. Keys Not Working or Double-Typing

• Remove the keycap and switch for the affected key. Inspect the switch pins for any bends or damage. Straighten bent pins carefully or replace the switch if damaged.
• Sørg for, at kontakten sidder helt i hot-swap-sokkelen.
• Clean any debris or dust from around the switch socket.

3. Problemer med RGB-baggrundsbelysning

• Check the battery level; low battery can affect lighting performance.
• Brug Fn-tastekombinationerne (f.eks. Fn + Backspace) to cycle through lighting effects and ensure it's not turned off.
• If using VIA, ensure the lighting settings are correctly configured.
