Setup

1. Install Batteries

The mouse requires one AA battery. Open the battery compartment on the underside of the mouse and insert the battery, ensuring correct polarity. The keyboard typically does not require batteries as it is powered via the USB connection, or it might have an internal rechargeable battery (information not provided, assuming standard wireless keyboard setup). If the keyboard has a battery compartment, insert the required batteries (usually AAA or AA, check product for details).

2. Connect USB Receiver

Locate the USB nano-receiver, usually stored within the mouse's battery compartment or a dedicated slot. Plug the USB receiver into an available USB port on your computer (PC or Laptop).
