Operating Your Mouse

Basic Functions

• Left Click: Primary action button.
• Right Click: Secondary action button.
• Scroll Wheel: Scroll up or down. Can also be pressed for a middle-click function.
• Side Buttons: By default, these buttons perform forward and backward navigation in web browsers. Their functions can be customized via the Fnatic Gear software.

On-the-Fly CPI Adjustment

The Fnatic Clutch 2 allows you to adjust your CPI (sensitivity) settings directly on the mouse without needing to open the software. The dedicated CPI button, typically located behind the scroll wheel, cycles through pre-configured CPI stages. The RGB lighting on the mouse may change to indicate the current CPI profile.

Note: Default CPI stages and their corresponding colors can be customized in the Fnatic Gear software.

Lift-Off Distance (LOD) Adjustment

The mouse supports on-the-fly adjustment of the Lift-Off Distance. This feature allows you to set how high the mouse can be lifted from the surface before tracking stops, preventing unwanted cursor movement during repositioning. Refer to the Fnatic Gear software for specific instructions on how to configure and activate LOD settings.
