Operating Instructions

1. Ergonomic Design for Comfort

The vertical design of this mouse allows your hand to rest in a natural "handshake" position, reducing wrist pronation and muscle tension commonly associated with traditional mice. This promotes smoother movement and greater comfort during extended use.

2. Adjustable DPI Settings

The mouse features 3 adjustable DPI (Dots Per Inch) levels, allowing you to customize cursor sensitivity to your preference or task requirements. The available DPI settings are 800, 1200, and 1600. Press the DPI switch button (located near the scroll wheel) to cycle through these settings.

3. Silent Click Buttons

The left, right, and side buttons are designed for noiseless clicks, making this mouse ideal for quiet environments such as offices, libraries, or late-night work sessions. This feature minimizes distractions for both you and those around you.

Maintenance

Cleaning

To maintain optimal performance and hygiene, regularly clean your mouse. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the surface. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth with mild soap can be used, ensuring no liquid enters the internal components. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.

Battery Replacement

When the mouse's performance degrades or it stops responding, it's likely time to replace the batteries. Refer to the "Battery Installation" section for instructions on how to replace the 2 AA batteries.

Troubleshooting

  • Mouse not responding:
    • Ensure the mouse is turned ON.
    • Check battery levels and replace if necessary.
    • Verify the USB receiver is securely plugged into a working USB port.
    • Try plugging the USB receiver into a different USB port.
    • Restart your computer.
  • Erratic cursor movement:
    • Clean the optical sensor on the underside of the mouse.
    • Ensure you are using the mouse on a suitable surface (non-reflective, uniform color).
    • Adjust DPI settings to a lower value if the cursor is too sensitive.
  • Forward/Backward buttons not working on Mac:
    • This is a known compatibility limitation. These buttons are not fully supported on macOS.
