6. Troubleshooting

6.1 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Does the product serial number (S/N) on the package match the one on the mouse?
A: It is normal for S/N codes on Logitech products to not be consistent with P/N codes and S/N codes on packages. Products and packages are managed, controlled, and traced separately.
Q: Why does the mouse foot patch have scratches or appear warped?
A: The mouse undergoes cross-calibration and quality testing before leaving the factory, which can sometimes result in minor scratches on the foot patch. In hot weather, the foot pad glue may melt slightly, causing the pad to lift; gently pressing it back into place will resolve this. These are considered normal situations.
Q: Is the product 100% original?
A: Yes, this product is guaranteed to be 100% original Logitech.
Q: Why might the packaging be damaged?
A: International logistics and customs inspections can sometimes lead to unavoidable damage to packaging. Rest assured that the product itself is sent out in good condition.
