5. Maintenance
5.1 Cleaning
The ATK X1 V2 mouse features a brand new nano coating that is sweat-resistant, stain-resistant, and easy to clean. To clean your mouse:
- Use a soft, lint-free cloth, slightly dampened with water or a mild cleaning solution.

- Gently wipe the surface of the mouse. For crevices, use a dry cotton swab or compressed air.
5.2 Foot Pads
The mouse is equipped with high-content PTFE or standard gray double-layer anti-sink foot pads, designed for smooth gliding and durability. If the foot pads show significant wear, replacement sets may be available from ATK support or authorized retailers.
5.3 Battery Care
To prolong battery life, avoid fully discharging the mouse frequently. Charge the mouse when the battery indicator suggests low power. Store the mouse in a cool, dry place when not in use for extended periods.
6. Troubleshooting
6.1 Mouse Not Responding
- Ensure the mouse is turned on.
- Check battery level and charge if necessary.
- Verify the 8K receiver is securely plugged into a working USB port.
- Try plugging the receiver into a different USB port.
- If using wireless, try connecting the mouse via the 8K data cable to rule out wireless interference or receiver issues.
- Restart your computer.
6.2 Unstable 8KHz Polling Rate or Frame Drops
If you experience instability or frame drops at 8KHz polling rate, ensure your system meets the recommended specifications outlined in Section 3.4. High polling rates demand significant system resources. Lowering the polling rate in the ATK HUB 3.0 software may resolve the issue if your system is underperforming.
6.3 DPI or Button Settings Not Working
