Why are keys like Page Up/Down integrated into the numpad, requiring NUM-Lock to be off to use them?

This 95-key compact layout retains the numeric keypad while reducing size. NUM-Lock toggles each key between number entry and navigation (e.g. PgUp), maintaining full function. For frequent navigation, keep NUM-Lock off when not entering numbers.

Why does the wireless receiver (dongle) need to be used with a cable instead of plugging directly into the computer?

To achieve wireless 4K polling (4000Hz), a specialized receiver is used with its extension cable, as standard dongles max out at 125Hz. This ensures stable performance, reduces interference, and allows flexible placement.

Why does pressing the volume knob open the settings menu instead of muting?

The knob is a multi-function controller, not solely for volume. A short press activates the quick settings menu on the LCD for adjusting lighting, volume etc. This design centralizes control of key functions for efficiency.

The tilt angle isn’t enough. Can it be adjusted?

The keyboard has a two-stage adjustable kickstand. The initial ~5° tilt can be increased to ~8° (Stage 1) or ~11° (Stage 2) for a more pronounced angle and stable support. Choose the stage that suits you best.

For gaming in low-light conditions, how should I set up the backlight for better visibility?

Optimize settings in CHERRY UTILITY: 1. Use “Custom” mode to highlight keys like WASD; 2. Lower brightness to ~25% to improve legend contrast; 3. Choose a single color (e.g., white) to reduce distraction. This enhances visual focus and usability.
