Setup, Compatibility & Care

To connect the keyboard, use the provided USB-C cable for wired use, toggle to the 2.4GHz mode using the included receiver for wireless play, or switch to Bluetooth mode to pair with mobile devices or laptops. The Mercury K1 is compatible with major operating systems including Windows and macOS. For maintenance, keep the aluminum finish free of fingerprints by wiping it down with a soft, microfiber cloth. Avoid using harsh liquid cleaners, as they may affect the surface finish. Since the keyboard features sound-dampening internal foams, avoid exposing the board to extreme humidity or liquid spills, which could trap moisture inside the internal layers.
