Operation

Button Functions

  • Scroll Wheel: Provides tactile feedback for accurate scrolling.
  • Side Buttons: Two programmable buttons on the left side for custom commands.

DPI Adjustment

The Pure Air mouse features a 26K Owl-Eye Optical Sensor. Use the dedicated DPI button to switch between sensitivity settings on the fly. Default DPI settings can be customized using the Swarm 2 software.

RGB Illumination (AIMO)

The Turtle Beach logo on the back of the mouse features customizable AIMO intelligent RGB illumination. Lighting effects and colors can be configured through the Swarm 2 software.

Swarm 2 Software

For advanced customization, download and install the Swarm 2 software from the official Turtle Beach website. This software allows you to:

  • Adjust DPI levels and create custom profiles.
  • Program button assignments.
  • Customize RGB lighting effects.
  • Update mouse firmware.

Maintenance

Cleaning

To clean your Turtle Beach Pure Air mouse, use a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the mouse's surface and internal components.

PTFE Glides

The mouse is equipped with Pure PTFE glides for smooth movement. Ensure these glides remain clean and free of debris to maintain optimal performance. Avoid scratching or damaging the glides.

Troubleshooting

Connectivity Issues

  • 2.4GHz Wireless: Ensure the Wireless USB Adapter is securely plugged into a working USB port. Verify the mouse switch is set to the 2.4GHz mode. Try a different USB port.
  • Bluetooth: Confirm Bluetooth is enabled on your PC and the mouse switch is set to Bluetooth mode. Remove and re-pair the device in your PC's Bluetooth settings.
  • General: Ensure the mouse is charged. Try connecting the mouse in wired mode to confirm functionality.

Battery Life Concerns

While rated for up to 125 hours, actual battery life can vary based on usage patterns, DPI settings, and RGB illumination intensity. If battery life seems significantly shorter, ensure the mouse is fully charged and consider reducing RGB brightness or disabling it via the Swarm 2 software.

Software and Firmware

If you experience unexpected behavior or wish to access the latest features, ensure your Swarm 2 software and mouse firmware are up to date. Connect the mouse via USB and use the Swarm 2 application to check for and apply updates.
