INITIALIZATION
The Reset button is located on the left-hand side of the keyboard (under the A key). It
can be accessed with any thin object like a paper clip. Never use a needle or pin for
this purpose since it can damage the device.
Electrostatic discharge may cause failure of the device. Please use the Reset button to
restore full functionality of the device.
KEYBOARD
Unlike PC keyboards, there is no need to keep a key (such as SHIFT) down while
pressing another one. It is enough to press it only once and release.
