• Storage: When not in use for extended periods, turn off the mouse using the power switch to conserve battery life. Store the USB receiver inside the battery compartment to prevent loss.

6. Troubleshooting

Mouse not responding:

• Ensure the mouse is powered on (switch on the bottom).
• Check if the batteries are correctly installed and have sufficient charge. Replace if necessary.
• Verify that the USB receiver is securely plugged into a working USB port on your computer.
• Try plugging the USB receiver into a different USB port.
• Restart your computer.

Cursor movement is erratic or imprecise:

• Clean the optical sensor on the bottom of the mouse.
• Ensure you are using the mouse on a suitable surface. Avoid highly reflective or transparent surfaces.
• Adjust the DPI setting using the DPI switch button to find a comfortable sensitivity.

Forward/Backward buttons not working:
