Function Keys (F1-F12) and Media Controls

The top row of keys serves dual functions. By default, they may act as media controls (e.g., volume, play/pause) or shortcuts. To access the traditional F1-F12 functions, use the Fn key, typically located near the bottom left of the keyboard. Some keyboards feature an Фн Лоцк feature to toggle between these modes.

Подесиви нагиб

The keyboard is designed with adjustable legs to allow for three different tilt positions: negative, neutral, and positive. Adjusting the tilt can help optimize your typing posture and reduce wrist strain.

1. Негативан нагиб: Tilts the keyboard downwards towards the user, often considered optimal for a natural hand angle.
2. Neutral Tilt: The keyboard lies flat on the desk.
3. Позитиван нагиб: Tilts the keyboard upwards away from the user, a more traditional keyboard angle.

To adjust, locate the adjustable feet on the underside of the keyboard and extend or retract them as desired.
