4. Maintenance

To clean your mouse, use a soft, dry, or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as these can damage the surface or internal components. Ensure no liquid enters the mouse.
4.2 PTFE Glides Replacement
The Burst Pro Air comes with heat-treated pure PTFE glides for smooth movement. A spare set is included in the package. If the existing glides show significant wear, carefully peel them off and replace them with the new set, ensuring the surface is clean before application.

5. Troubleshooting
- Mouse not responding: Ensure the mouse is charged and turned on. Check that the wireless dongle is securely plugged into a USB port, or that the USB-C cable is properly connected. If using Bluetooth, ensure it is paired correctly.
- Intermittent connectivity: Try moving the wireless dongle to a different USB port, preferably a front-facing one, or closer to the mouse. Ensure there are no major obstructions or sources of interference (e.g., other wireless devices) between the mouse and the dongle.
- Tracking issues: Clean the optical sensor on the underside of the mouse with a soft, dry cloth. Ensure you are using the mouse on a suitable surface (a mouse pad is recommended).
- Buttons not registering: Ensure the ROCCAT Swarm software is up to date. If the issue persists, try resetting the mouse to factory defaults via the Swarm software.
- Software not detecting mouse: Reinstall the ROCCAT Swarm software. Ensure your operating system is up to date.
