3. Технічне обслуговування
3.1 Очищення клавіатури
Regular cleaning helps maintain the keyboard's appearance and functionality:
- Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe down the keycaps and keyboard body.
- For deeper cleaning, you can remove keycaps using the provided keycap puller and use compressed air to clear debris from underneath.
- Уникайте використання агресивних хімікатів або абразивних матеріалів, оскільки вони можуть пошкодити ковпачки клавіш або покриття.
3.2 Комутатори з можливістю гарячої заміни
The AKS068 features a hot-swappable PCB, allowing you to easily change switches without soldering. This supports most 3-pin/5-pin mechanical switches (e.g., Cherry MX, Kailh Box, Gateron, Outemu, Glorious, Epomaker, AKKO).
- To remove a switch, use the provided switch puller to gently grip the top and bottom of the switch and pull upwards.
- Щоб встановити новий перемикач, вирівняйте його контакти з отворами на друкованій платі та міцно натисніть, доки він не зафіксується на місці. Переконайтеся, що контакти не зігнуті.
