2.4G Wireless Connection

  1. Locate the USB receiver, typically stored in the battery compartment of the mouse.
  2. Plug the USB receiver into an available USB-A port on your computer. If your device only has USB-C ports, use the provided Type C adapter by plugging the USB receiver into the adapter first, then the adapter into your device's USB-C port.
  3. Turn on the mouse using the power switch on the bottom.
  4. Press the mode switch button on the bottom of the mouse until the indicator light for 2.4G mode is active. The mouse should automatically connect to your device.

Bluetooth Connection (BT1 / BT2)

  1. Turn on the mouse using the power switch on the bottom.
  2. Press the mode switch button on the bottom of the mouse to select either BT1 or BT2 mode. The corresponding indicator light will flash slowly, indicating it's ready for pairing.
  3. On your device (laptop, tablet, smartphone), go to Bluetooth settings.
  4. Search for new devices. You should see "BT5.1 Mouse" or similar in the list of available devices.
  5. Select "BT5.1 Mouse" to pair. Once paired, the indicator light on the mouse will stop flashing and remain solid.
  6. Repeat steps 2-5 to connect a second Bluetooth device using the other Bluetooth channel (BT1 or BT2).

Note: For optimal performance, ensure your device's Bluetooth is enabled and within range.
