Notes

• Do not force the palmrest too far when opening it.

• When using the palmrest on a flat surface, such as a desk, install the keyboard so that the palmrest does not extend over the edge.

• Do not carry the keyboard by the palmrest. Use both hands to hold the keyboard on the sides, as illustrated, when carrying it.

Precautions

Operating range for the keyboard

The maximum communication range for the keyboard is 32.8 ft. (10 m) from the receiver. Depending on the usage environment, sometimes the usable distance may be shorter, preventing normal operation. In such a case, take the following measures:

• Ensure that the keyboard is at least 6 in. (15 cm) from the computer, display, and other electronic devices.

• Move the receiver closer to the keyboard.

Safety

If any solid object or liquid falls onto the keyboard, turn it off and have it checked by qualified personnel before continuing its use.

Location

Do not place the keyboard in a location where it is:

• On an unstable surface

• In very humid areas or where there is no ventilation

• Subject to excessive dust

• Subject to direct sunlight or extreme heat

• Subject to extreme cold

Operation

If the keyboard is brought directly from a cold to a warm location or placed in a very damp room, moisture may condense on the inside of the keyboard. If this occurs, the keyboard may not work properly. In this case, wait about 30 minutes for the moisture to evaporate. If the keyboard does not work properly after one hour, consult your nearest Sony dealer.

Carrying the keyboard

When carrying the keyboard, fold up the palmrest. Do not carry the keyboard by the palmrest.

Cleaning the outside of the keyboard

• Clean the keyboard with a soft, dry cloth or a soft cloth lightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent such as alcohol or benzine.

• Always remove the batteries when cleaning the keyboard.

• Insérez les piles en respectant la polarité +/–.

• N’utilisez pas simultanément des piles usagées et des piles neuves ou des piles d’un

type différent.

• Ne rechargez pas les piles sèches.

• Si le clavier n’est pas utilisé pendant une période prolongée, retirez les piles.

• En cas de fuite de fluide des piles, essuyez soigneusement le compartiment à piles, puis

insérez des piles neuves.

• Cet appareil n’est pas compatible avec des piles rechargeables disponibles dans le

commerce. Utilisez des piles sèches classiques. L’utilisation de piles rechargeables peut entraîner des blessures ou des dommages causés par une fuite de fluide des piles.

z Conseil

Vérifiez l’autonomie restante des piles à l’aide de l’indicateur de piles. Remplacez les piles lorsqu’elles sont épuisées. Lorsque vous n’utilisez pas le clavier, réglez le commutateur POWER sur OFF. Ceci permettra aux piles de durer plus longtemps.

1 Réglez le commutateur POWER du clavier sur OFF. 2 Ouvrez le couvercle situé à l’arrière du clavier.

3 Insérez quatre des piles R6 (taille AA) fournies en

respectant la polarité eE.

4 Refermez le couvercle.

Remarques

• Les pilotes des périphériques USB doivent être installés pour chaque port utilisé. Si vous raccordez le récepteur à un autre port USB de votre ordinateur, vous devez recommencer la procédure d’installation du pilote pour ce port USB.
