Using this keyboard case is easy. First, pair your iPad (2nd, 3rd, or 4th Gen) with the Bluetooth keyboard. Just turn on the Bluetooth on your iPad and search for the Kensington keyboard in the available devices list, then connect. When typing, you'll find the keys responsive and comfortable. As for maintenance, keep it clean by using a soft, dry cloth to wipe it regularly. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or moisture. If you notice any connectivity issues, try turning the keyboard off and on again, and also reset the Bluetooth connection on your iPad. When not in use, store it in a safe place to prevent scratches and other damages.
