Vzdrževanje

1. Čiščenje tipkovnice

Redno čiščenje pomaga ohranjati delovanje in videz tipkovnice.

• Odstranjevanje prahu: S pločevinko stisnjenega zraka odpihnite prah in umazanijo med tipkami.
• Čiščenje tipkovnice: For deeper cleaning, remove the keycaps using the provided keycap puller. Wash them with mild soap and water, then ensure they are completely dry before reattaching.
• Čiščenje ohišja: Aluminijasto ohišje obrišite z mehko krpoamp krpo. Izogibajte se ostrim kemikalijam, ki bi lahko poškodovale zaključek.

2. Switch and Stabilizer Maintenance

The hot-swappable design allows for easy maintenance of switches and stabilizers.

• Zamenjava stikala: If a switch becomes faulty, replace it using the hot-swapping procedure described in the Operating Instructions.
• Stabilizer Lubrication: For optimal performance and reduced wobbliness on larger keys (space bar, shift, enter), the PCB-mounted screw-in stabilizers can be lubricated. This typically involves disassembling the keyboard to access the stabilizers.
