Setup
1. Charging the Mouse
Before first use, it is recommended to fully charge your MX Vertical mouse. Connect the included USB-C cable to the charging port on the front of the mouse and the other end to a USB power source (e.g., computer USB port, USB wall adapter). A full charge can last up to four months, and a one-minute quick charge provides three hours of use.
2. Connecting to Your Device
The MX Vertical offers three connection options:
- Logitech Unifying Receiver: Insert the USB-A Unifying receiver into an available USB port on your computer. The mouse should connect automatically.
- Bluetooth: Turn on Bluetooth on your computer or device. Press the Easy-Switch button on the bottom of the mouse to select an available channel (1, 2, or 3). Press and hold the Easy-Switch button for three seconds until the LED indicator blinks rapidly. Select 'MX Vertical' from your device's Bluetooth settings to pair.
- USB-C Cable: You can also use the mouse while it is connected via the USB-C charging cable.
