Introduction

This guide provides instructions for setting up and using the Logitech G502 LIGHTSPEED Wireless Gaming Mouse. It covers installation, button customization, battery management, and software integration with Logitech G HUB.

Installation Instructions

Step 1: Connecting the Receiver

Locate the wireless receiver, typically found attached to the USB adapter within the accessories box. Connect one end of the provided cable to your computer and the other end to the USB adapter and receiver.

Charging and Connectivity

Wireless Connectivity Tips:

• Keep the mouse and receiver at least 2 meters (approx. 6.5 feet) away from any wireless router or other 2.4 GHz wireless devices to minimize interference.
• The G502 LIGHTSPEED mouse has a maximum wireless range of 10 meters (approx. 33 feet). For optimal performance in environments with wireless interference, and to ensure easy access to the charging cable, it is recommended to place the receiver within 20 cm (approx. 8 inches) of the mouse.

Battery Life and Management

The G502 LIGHTSPEED wireless mouse is equipped with a 250 mAh rechargeable LiPol battery, providing up to 55 hours of non-stop gaming with RGB lighting off and 1ms report rate, or 48 hours of non-stop gaming with RGB lighting and 1ms report rate.

You can check the battery charge level when the mouse is turned on by pressing the G9 button or by assigning this function to another button via Logitech G HUB.

The DPI indicator lights display the charge level for seven seconds upon mouse activation, shown as color bars:

• 3 green bars: 50–100% charge
• 2 green bars: 30–50% charge
• 1 green bar: 15–30% charge
