Operating tips
For best performance and RF reception:
• Place the receiver at least 8 inches (20 cm) away from all
electrical devices, such as your monitor, speakers, or
external drives. If necessary, use the extension cable to
move the receiver away from the computer (if your
computer is too close to other electrical devices). Plug
the receiver into an extension cable (USB A male to
USB A female, not included), and plug the extension
cable into the computer.
• Avoid using the mouse on a metal surface. Metals such
as iron, aluminum, or copper shield the radio frequency
transmission and may slow down the mouse’s response
time or cause the mouse to fail temporarily.
• The mouse enters a Sleep mode whenever your
computer does. To activate the mouse, just move or click
the mouse.
• If your computer has a metal case that contains
aluminum or magnesium, use the mouse to the side,
because the display may interfere with the radio
frequency signal if you use the mouse directly in front of
the computer.
• Don’t use the mouse on a glass, mirror, or other highly
reflective surface, because the mouse doesn’t work well
on those types of surfaces.
• To increase battery life, use the mouse on a white or
light-colored surface. Dark surfaces cause the mouse’s
light emitter diode (LED) to glow brighter, which causes
the battery to discharge more rapidly.
Conserving power
When the mouse batteries are running low on power, the
LED light on the receiver turns red and blinks.
