wake it up.
Reconnect keyboard to the system

itself to the Bluetooth system. The process may take from

RECONNECT indicator LED ashes until the keyboard and
the system connection is established. The keyboard goes
through the same process every time the computer is powered
on. This is not an error, it’s the nature of Bluetooth.
Power-low Indicator

power is low. Please replace both batteries at your earliest
convenience to prevent power interruption.
