4. Maintenance

To ensure optimal performance and longevity of your Logitech M220 Silent Mouse, consider the following maintenance tips:

• Battery Replacement: The mouse uses one AA battery. When the mouse's performance degrades or it stops responding, it's likely time to replace the battery. Slide off the battery compartment cover on the underside of the mouse, remove the old battery, and insert a new AA battery, ensuring correct polarity.
• Cleaning: Use a soft, lint-free cloth to gently wipe the exterior of the mouse. For stubborn dirt, slightly dampen the cloth with water. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Sensor Cleaning: Occasionally, dust or debris may accumulate around the optical sensor on the underside of the mouse. Use a cotton swab or a can of compressed air to gently clean the sensor area.
• Storage: When not in use for extended periods, or during travel, it is recommended to turn off the mouse using the On/Off switch to conserve battery life. The USB receiver can be stored inside the battery compartment to prevent loss.

• Mouse Not Responding:
