4. Maintenance
Proper maintenance will extend the lifespan and maintain the performance of your ARTISAN Raiden FX MID Mouse Pad.
- Regular Cleaning: The mouse pad surface can accumulate dust and grime over time, which may affect glide performance. It is recommended to clean the pad regularly, perhaps once every few weeks or as needed.
- Cleaning Method:
- Use a microfiber cloth dampened with plain water.
- Gently wipe the surface of the mouse pad. Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive materials.
- Do not use strong chemical cleaners, as these may damage the surface material.
- Allow the mouse pad to air dry completely before reuse. Do not expose to direct sunlight or high heat.
- Avoid Contaminants: Try to avoid eating or placing dirty/dust-prone objects directly on the mouse pad, as grime can build up quickly and affect performance.
- Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the mouse pad flat or rolled loosely to prevent creases.
5. Troubleshooting
- Mouse Pad is Slipping:
Ensure the surface beneath the mouse pad is clean and dry. The non-slip base relies on a clean contact surface for optimal grip. If the issue persists, gently clean the underside of the mouse pad with a damp cloth and allow it to dry.
- Reduced Glide Performance:
This is often due to accumulated dust, skin oils, or grime on the surface. Refer to the Maintenance section for cleaning instructions. Regular cleaning is crucial for maintaining optimal glide.
- Uneven Surface or Curling:
While the ARTISAN Raiden is designed to be resistant to curling, if it appears uneven, try placing heavy, flat objects on it overnight to help it flatten completely. Ensure it is stored flat when not in use.
