designed mouse uses a radio frequency (RF) link that
enables you to use the mouse anywhere within four feet of
its receiver. No line-of-sight between the mouse and its
receiver is required.

NOTE: The third button and the scrolling wheel only
work with the operating systems listed above. If you
use the mouse with a different operating system, it
will lose its enhanced features and function as a
standard, two-button mouse.
Connecting the Mouse Receiver
To connect the mouse receiver:
1 Plug the USB receiver into an available USB port on
your computer.
2 Your computer’s operating system identifies the receiver
and begins installing the default driver.
Follow any on-screen procedures to complete the
default driver installation.
Using the Mouse
Installing the Batteries
1 If the mouse is on, slide the on/off switch on the bottom
of the mouse to the “off” position.
2 Remove the battery cover from the top of the mouse by
pressing the battery cover hinge located on the bottom
of the mouse and sliding it off.

NOTE: The battery cover is also the top cover of the
mouse.
3 Insert the supplied batteries, making sure that the
positive (+) and negative (-) ends of each battery match
the polarity indicators inside the battery housing.
WARNING: When replacing the batteries, use only
heavy-duty NiMH batteries. Recharging alkaline
batteries may damage the mouse.
Avoid mixing new and used batteries in a device.
4 Slide the battery cover back into position until it “clicks”
firmly into place.
5 Turn on the mouse by sliding the on/off switch on the
bottom of the mouse to the “on” position.
The optical sensor, located on the bottom of the mouse,
illuminates.

Charging the Batteries
For best results, you should charge the mouse at least 4
hours before using it. You can do this via the supplied USB
charge cable. To do this:
1 Connect the cable’s USB connector into an available
USB port on your computer
2 Connect the other end to the mouse.
NOTE: To continuously charge the mouse via the USB
charge cable, your computer must be on and awake.
For best results, turn off your computer’s power
management feature while charging the mouse.
Establishing a Communications
Link
The mouse has 256 identification codes that allow the
mouse and its receiver to operate without interference from
other radio frequency devices.
After your computer detects the USB receiver and the
driver is installed, you must establish a communications link
between the mouse and its receiver BEFORE you can use
the mouse. To do this, follow the instructions below:
1 Press and release the link button located on the bottom
of the receiver.

Receiver
The receiver’s status light blinks when the receiver is
activated.
2 Press and release the link button, located on the bottom
of the mouse.
You are now ready to use the mouse.
Mouse Power Management
To power the mouse on and off, slide the on/off switch at
the bottom of the mouse to the desired position.
When power is on, the mouse goes into "sleep mode" after
8 minutes of no use. To activate the mouse, move the
mouse or press any key.
To save battery power, turn off the mouse while traveling.

Operating Hints
For optimal performance and RF reception:
• Place the receiver at least 8 inches (20 cm) away from all
electrical devices, such as your monitor, speakers or
external storage devices.
If necessary, use the supplied extension cable to keep
the receiver away from the computer. Plug the receiver
into the extension cable, and the extension cable to the
computer.
• 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. To activate the mouse, simply move
the mouse.
• 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.
• 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 white, or 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 batteries is correct. The
positive (+) and negative (-) ends of each battery must
match the positive (+) and negative (-) connections in the
battery housing.
• Check that the receiver’s USB connector is firmly
attached to the USB port on your computer.
• Verify that the device drivers are installed.
• Make sure you have established a radio link between the
mouse and its receiver. See “Establishing a
Communications Link” 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.
• 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.
I can’t use the mouse while another RF mouse is in
use – what should I do?
Reset the identification code. See “Establishing a
Communications Link” on page 6.
