INSERTING/REMOVING YOUR iPAD®

TROUBLESHOOTING

If your iPad® does not respond to your Cover there may be a simple 
explanation such as a dead battery or an unsuccessful pairing. Please use 
the following to help troubleshoot your situation. If none of the following 
solve your issue, then please contact ZAGG customer service and one of 
our trained professionals will be happy to assist you. 

1.  Restart your iPad by holding down the home and power button 

simultaneously until it restarts. Let go of the buttons when you see the 
Apple logo.

2.  Turn your Cover off and back on. You should see the LED status light 

illuminate briefly, if not, charge your Cover.

3.  After charging, turn your Cover on. If the LED status light does not 

illuminate, and your keyboard doesn’t operate correctly, please contact 
ZAGG’s customer support.

4.  Forget and re-pair your Cover. On your iPad, select: Settings > General 

> Bluetooth > On. If you see “ZAGGkeys Cover” listed as an available 
device, touch the arrow to the right of it and choose to have your iPad 
forget the device.

5.  Push the PAIR button on your Cover and watch for the LED status light 

to flash blue.

6.  Your iPad should display “ZAGGkeys Cover” as an available device. 

Select it.

7.  If your iPad gives you an error message, repeat the pairing process.

8.  If you still can’t get your Cover to pair, it is possible your iPad needs to 

have its software updated.

To update your iPad’s software, follow these steps:

1.  Plug your iPad into your computer, and open iTunes®.

2.  In iTunes, select your iPad.

3.  Choose to check for software updates.

4.  If an update is available, please install it. This will take a few minutes to 

download from Apple®.

5.  After your update is complete, repeat the troubleshooting process*.

* If you continually receive the same error message during pairing, or the above steps don’t work, please 

contact ZAGG’s customer support for assistance.

To insert your iPad mini into the Cover, 
start with the Cover’s keyboard in portrait 
orientation with the hinge closed and on 
the left. Then, with your iPad in portrait 
mode and the volume control buttons 
facing out (the Home button is on the 
top), slide it into the hinge channel, 
making sure it is firmly in place. For best 
results, always insert your iPad with the 
hinge closed and align its edges with your 
Cover’s keyboard. 

When your iPad is secure in the Cover, 
you can open it, and cleverly placed 
magnets, will activate your iPad’s 
sleep/wake feature to help preserve 
battery life. Simply open your Cover to 
wake your iPad. 

To easily remove your iPad, start with the 
hinge closed. Open the hinge slightly 
(enough that you can grasp the corner of 
your iPad) and while securing the Cover, 
pull your iPad away from the hinge.

To insert your iPad using the media mode, 
start with the Cover’s keyboard in portrait 
orientation with the hinge closed and on 
the left. Then, with your iPad also in 
portrait orientation (the Home button is 
on the bottom), slide your iPad into the 
hinge channel, making sure it is firmly in 
place*. You will feel the magnets engage, 
securing your device. 

*NOTE:

 

When your iPad is in media mode, it is somewhat 

less secure in the channel as when in regular mode. Use 

care when transporting it in this mode.
