For instances where the PC is positioned under a desk or other places that might impede wireless connectivity, use of the extension seat is recommended. (See the diagram on page 5.)
Avoid using the mouse on a metal surface. Metals, such as iron, aluminum or copper, shield the radio frequency transmission and may slow down the mouses response time or cause the mouse to fail temporarily.
The mouse will enter a suspend mode at the same time your computer does. Click any mouse button to wake it.
If your computer has a metal case that contains aluminum or magnesium, use the mouse to the side. The display panel may interfere with the radio frequency signal if you use the mouse directly in front of the computer. 7 Wireless Rechargeable Mouse for Desktop
Never use the mouse on a glass or mirrored surface as these surfaces will cause the mouse to fail temporarily.
To maximize battery life, use the mouse on a light colored surface. Dark surfaces cause the mouses light emitter diode (LED) light to glow brighter, which causes the battery to discharge more rapidly. Comfortable Usage Research suggests that physical discomfort and injury to nerves, tendons, and muscles may be related to repetitive motion, an improperly set up work area, incorrect body posture, and poor work habits. To reduce the risk of injury, follow these precautions:
Stand, stretch, and move around several times every hour.
Switch hands while performing tasks. Use shortcut keys to avoid repetitive or awkward mouse movements.
Relax your shoulders and keep your elbows at your sides. Adjust the keyboards position so that you dont have to stretch to reach it.
Adjust your position so that you dont have to bend your wrists to type; avoid placing your wrists on a sharp edge. If you feel discomfort or numbness in your hands, wrists, arms, shoulders, neck, or back while typing, consult a qualified medical professional. 8 Wireless Rechargeable Mouse for Desktop Troubleshooting What do I do if the mouse does not work?
Make sure that the polarity of the battery is correct. The positive (+) and negative (-) ends of the battery must match the positive (+) and negative (-) connections in the battery housing.
The battery may need recharging. See Charging the Mouse on page 5
Check that the receiver's USB connector is firmly attached to the USB port on your computer or to the extension seat, and that the extension seat's cable is connected to your PC.
Make sure you have established a communication link receiver. See the mouse and its between Synchronization on page 6. When I use the mouse, other wireless devices work more slowly or fail temporarily what should I do?
The mouse may cause interference with any cordless, radio-based device that operates at 27 MHz, such as a telephone, baby monitor, or toy. To reduce interference, move the mouses receiver and the base unit of the affected device as far away from each other as possible. What do I do if the response time of the mouse is slow or the mouse intermittently stops working?
Increase the distance between the mouses receiver and the rest of your computer equipment. Use the USB extension seat if necessary. 9 Wireless Rechargeable Mouse for Desktop
Increase the distance between the mouses receiver and the base units of other wireless devices.
Turn off any wireless devices and their base units that are near the mouses receiver.
If you are using the mouse on a metal surface, move it and the receiver to a non-metal surface. Metals, such as iron, aluminum or copper, shield the radio frequency transmission and may slow down the mouses response time or cause the mouse to fail temporarily.
