Connection to keyboard by bluetooth breaks off before it works

I have a Cherry KW 9200 Mini keyboard, which should be able to connect to my PC by bluetooth. But when I try to connect it via bluetoothctl, the following happens:

trust E6:83:93:AA:1F:6D# agent auto 
[bluetooth]# Changing E6:83:93:AA:1F:6D trust succeeded
connect E6:83:93:AA:1F:6D 3:93:AA:1F:6D
Attempting to connect to E6:83:93:AA:1F:6D
[CHG] Device E6:83:93:AA:1F:6D Connected: yes
[CHERRY KW 9200 MINI]# Connection successful
[CHERRY KW 9200 MINI]# [agent] Passkey: 189804
[CHG] Device E6:83:93:AA:1F:6D Connected: no

I think the problem is something about the passkey. If I press the bluetooth key on the keyboard again, it prints another passkey:

[CHERRY KW 9200 MINI]# connect
Missing dev argument
[agent] Passkey: 892787
[agent] Passkey: 537714
[agent] Passkey: 391362

I tried typing the passkey into the terminal or on the keyboard, but it didn't work. What am I doing wrong?
