Trouble Shooting:
1. If your keyboard is not responding, be sure to check if the connector is correctly installed into
your computer and securely connected to the correct port. Check to see if there are any breaks
or sharp twists in the cable.
2. If your USB keyboard does not respond, make sure that your computer is turned on. If you
connected your mouse while your computer was shut down, try disconnecting and re-
connecting the mouse while the computer is turned on.
3. Keep all items away from direct sunlight, moisture, dirt, extreme heat, and abrasive chemicals
(cleaning solutions).
4. If the keyboard or mouse become accidentally immersed or splashed by liquids, switch off your
PC immediately and unplug all items. Turn the keyboard upside down to drain any liquids. If
the liquid was water, simply let the keyboard dry before using it. If you spilled a sticky
substance on your keyboard, drain the liquid and then completely wipe the keyboard with a
damp cloth. Allow the keyboard to dry completely before reconnecting it to your computer.
5. For optimum performance, keep your keyboard clean and free of debris, such as food crumbs
or dust. Keyboards should be cleaned with “spray and wipe” cleaner with either a cloth or
tissue on a monthly basis.
Health Warning
Use of a keyboard or pointing device may be linked to serious injuries or disorders.
When using a computer, as with many activities, you may experience occasional discomfort in
your hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of your body. However, if you experience
symptoms such as persistent or recurring discomfort, pain, throbbing, aching, tingling, numbness,
burning sensation, or stiffness, DO NOT IGNORE THESE WARNING SIGNS. PROMPTLY
SEE A QUALIFIED HEALTH PROFESSIONAL, even if symptoms occur when you are not
working at your computer. Symptoms such as these can be associated with painful and
sometimes permanently disabling injuries or disorders of the nerves, muscles, tendons, or other
parts of the body. These musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) include carpal tunnel syndrome,
tendonitis, tenosynovitis, and other conditions.
While researchers are not yet able to answer many questions about MSDs, there is a general
agreement that many factors may be linked to their occurrence, including: medical and physical
conditions, stress and how one copes with it, overall health, and how a person positions and uses
his or her body during work and other activities (including use of a keyboard or pointing device).
Some studies suggest that the amount of time a person uses a keyboard may also be a factor. For
guidelines that may help you work more comfortably with your computer and possibly reduce
your risk of experiencing an MSD consult a local physician.
If you have any questions about how your own lifestyle, activities, or medical or physical
condition may be related to MSDs, see a qualified health professional.
