Resolució de problemes

• El teclat no respon: Ensure the Type-C cable is securely connected to both the keyboard and the computer. Try connecting to a different USB port or a different computer to rule out port issues.
• La il·luminació RGB no funciona o és incorrecta: Check the keyboard software for lighting settings. Ensure the software is up-to-date. If using default modes, try cycling through them using the keyboard's function keys (refer to the PDF manual for specific key combinations).
• Tecles específiques que no funcionen: If a single key is not responding, it might be a faulty switch. Since the K500 is hot-swappable, you can replace the switch.
