Troubleshooting
| Problem | Solution |
|---|---|
| Mouse not responding | Check battery level and replace if necessary. Ensure the mouse is powered on. Verify correct connection mode (Bluetooth or 2.4G USB) is selected via the switch on the bottom. For 2.4G, ensure the USB receiver is securely plugged into a working USB port. For Bluetooth, try re-pairing the device. |
| Intermittent connection or lag | Ensure the mouse is within the optimal operating range (up to 34 feet/10 meters). Avoid obstructions between the mouse and the receiver/device. Try connecting to a different USB port or re-pairing the Bluetooth connection. Reduce interference from other wireless devices. |
| Cursor movement is erratic or imprecise | Clean the optical sensor on the bottom of the mouse with a soft, dry cloth. Use the mouse on a clean, non-reflective, and uniform surface. Adjust DPI settings to a lower sensitivity if the cursor is too fast. |
| Side buttons not working on macOS | Please note that the side buttons on this mouse are not compatible with macOS. This is a system-specific limitation. |
| Mouse enters sleep mode too quickly | The mouse is designed to enter sleep mode after 10 minutes of inactivity to save power. To wake it, simply click any button 2-3 times or move the mouse. This behavior is normal. |
