Operating Instructions

The MX Master 3 for Mac offers intuitive controls and advanced features to enhance your workflow:

• MagSpeed Scroll Wheel: The main scroll wheel provides two modes: hyper-fast scrolling for long documents and pixel-precise scrolling for detailed work. The mouse intelligently switches between these modes based on your scrolling speed, or you can manually switch using the function button.
• Thumb Scroll Wheel: Located on the side, this wheel allows for horizontal scrolling, useful for navigating spreadsheets or video timelines.
• Thumb Buttons: Two customizable buttons are positioned near the thumb rest for easy access to forward/back navigation or other assigned functions.
• Gesture Button: The thumb rest itself acts as a gesture button. Hold it down and move the mouse in different directions to activate macOS gestures like switching desktops, opening Mission Control, or displaying Launchpad.
• Easy-Switch Button: On the bottom of the mouse, this button allows you to quickly switch between up to three paired devices (e.g., Mac, iPad).

Customization

Unlock the full potential of your MX Master 3 for Mac by customizing its buttons and gestures using the Logitech Options software. This software allows you to:

• Assign specific functions to each button and gesture.
• Create app-specific profiles, so your mouse behaves differently in various applications (e.g., different shortcuts for Photoshop vs. a web browser).
• Adjust tracking speed (DPI) and scrolling sensitivity.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your mouse, follow these maintenance tips:

• Cleaning: Use a soft, lint-free cloth to wipe the mouse surface. For stubborn dirt, slightly dampen the cloth with water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
• Sensor: Keep the optical sensor on the bottom of the mouse clean and free from dust or debris for accurate tracking.
• Battery: Charge the mouse regularly. Avoid completely draining the battery frequently to prolong its lifespan.
• Storage: When not in use for extended periods, turn off the mouse to conserve battery life.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your MX Master 3 for Mac, try the following:

• Mouse Not Responding:
  • Ensure the mouse is powered on.
  • Check the battery level and charge if necessary.
  • Verify Bluetooth is enabled on your Mac/iPad and the mouse is paired to the correct channel (1, 2, or 3).
  • Try re-pairing the mouse with your device.
• Erratic Cursor Movement:
  • Clean the optical sensor on the bottom of the mouse.
  • Ensure you are using the mouse on a suitable surface. While it tracks on glass, extreme textures or highly reflective surfaces might affect performance.
