Plug the receiverinto the extension cable, and the extension cable to thecomputer.• Avoid using the mouse on a metal surface. Metals, suchas iron, aluminum or copper, shield the radio frequencytransmission and may slow down the mouse’s responsetime or cause the mouse to fail temporarily.• The mouse will enter a suspend mode at the same timeyour computer does. To activate the mouse, simply movethe mouse.• If your computer has a metal case that contains aluminumor magnesium, use the mouse to the side. The displaypanel may interfere with the radio frequency signal if youuse the mouse directly in front of the computer.• Never use the mouse on a glass or mirrored surface asthese surfaces will cause the mouse to fail temporarily.• To maximize battery life, use the mouse on a white, or lightcolored surface. Dark surfaces cause the mouse’s lightemitter diode (LED) light to glow brighter, which causesthe battery to discharge more rapidly.
