Using the Extension Seat
An extension seat is provided to minimize interference from
other wireless devices. This extension seat allows you to
place the receiver closer to your mouse while in use.
1 Connect the extension seat to an available USB port on
your Desktop PC or Notebook.
2 Plug the receiver into the USB port labeled 'receiver'
located at the top of the seat.
3 Connect the USB end of the charge cable to the port
labeled 'charge' on the extension seat.
Your computer’s operating system automatically detects
the new hardware and begins installing the appropriate
drivers.
4 If applicable, follow any on-screen instructions to
complete the driver installation.

Operating Hints
For optimal performance and RF reception:
• 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 mouse’s
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.

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 mouse’s 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 keyboard’s position so that you don’t
have to stretch to reach it.
• Adjust your position so that you don’t 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.

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
between the mouse and its receiver. See
“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 mouse’s 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 mouse’s receiver
and the rest of your computer equipment. Use the USB
extension seat if necessary.
10
Wireless Rechargeable Mouse for Desktop
• Increase the distance between the mouse’s receiver
and the base units of other wireless devices.
• Turn off any wireless devices and their base units that
are near the mouse’s 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 mouse’s
response time or cause the mouse to fail temporarily.
