How to properly maintain your keyboard?

The keyboard is one of the most frequently used computer components, so it's important to maintain it properly to ensure it lasts long and works smoothly. Here are some tips on how to care for your keyboard:

Regular cleaning

  • Dust removal: Use a soft brush or compressed air to remove dust and debris from between the keys.
  • Wet cleaning: Gently wipe the surface of the keys with a soft, slightly damp microfiber cloth. Avoid using strong cleaners that could damage the key coating.
  • Disinfection: If you want to remove bacteria, you can use special disinfectants designed for electronics.

Protection from liquids

  • Avoid eating and drinking near the computer to prevent spills on the keyboard.
  • If you accidentally spill liquid, immediately turn off the computer, disconnect the keyboard, and turn it upside down to allow the liquid to drain out.

Gentle use

  • Do not press the keys too hard. Excessive force can damage the mechanical switches.
  • Avoid hitting or throwing the keyboard.

Proper positioning

  • Ensure that the keyboard is stable and comfortably within reach.
  • Use a wrist rest to reduce strain on your hands.

Software maintenance

  • Regularly update your operating system and keyboard drivers.
  • Use software designed to control keyboard lighting if your keyboard has such a feature.
