Maintenance

Cleaning

Troubleshooting

No Mouse Movement or Intermittent Tracking

• Check Batteries: Ensure batteries are correctly installed and have sufficient charge. Replace if necessary.
• Power Switch: Verify the mouse's power switch (located on the underside) is in the 'ON' position.
• Receiver Connection: Ensure the 2.4GHz Micro-Receiver is securely plugged into a functional USB or PS/2 port on your computer. Try a different port.
• Wireless Interference: The 2.4 GHz technology is designed to minimize interference, but extreme cases may occur. Move the mouse closer to the receiver or ensure no large metal objects are between them.
• Surface Compatibility: While laser tracking is highly versatile, extreme reflective or transparent surfaces (like clear glass) may affect performance. Try using the mouse on a different surface or a mouse pad.

Buttons or Scroll Wheel Not Responding

• Software Check: Ensure Logitech SetPoint software is installed and configured correctly. Check for any custom button assignments that might be causing unexpected behavior.
