5.1. Nettoyage du clavier

Pour préserver l'apparence et le fonctionnement du clavier :

• Disconnect the keyboard from your computer or turn off Bluetooth before cleaning.
• Utilisez un chiffon doux et non pelucheux légèrement dampened with water or a mild cleaning solution to wipe the keycaps and case. Avoid excessive moisture.

If you need to clean under the keycaps or replace them, use a keycap puller. Gently hook the puller onto the keycap and pull straight up. When reattaching, align the keycap with the switch stem and press down firmly until it clicks into place. Exercise caution to avoid damaging the switch stems.
