For your safety

Risk of choking from swallowing small parts

• Keep the device out of the reach of children under 3 years.

Danger of explosions due to wrong or incorrectly inserted batteries

• Only use batteries of the type named in the technical data.
• Insert the batteries in accordance with the markings (+/-) in the battery compartment.

RSI stands for "Repetitive Strain Injury"

RSI arises due to small movements continuously repeated over a long period of time.

• Set up your workspace ergonomically.
• Take several short breaks, with stretching exercises if necessary.
• Change your posture often.

Connecting the receiver to the PC/laptop

1. Open the battery compartment of the mouse and pull the receiver out of the compartment next to the batteries.
2. Connect the receiver to a USB 2.0 port on your PC/ laptop if possible (this usually has a white or black guide).
3. Insert batteries into the mouse.
4. Set the switch on the bottom of the mouse to ON.

Storing the receiver in the mouse

The receiver is so small that it can stay in the USB socket of a laptop while being transported. To avoid any damage, you can also pull out the receiver and deposit it in the mouse to protect it from dirt and loss.

Reverse the function of the left and right mouse buttons

In its delivery condition, the function of the buttons of a left-handed mouse has been reversed when compared to a right-handed mouse. This means that the left button is used to right-click, while the right one is used to left-click. You can change the button assignment using the Windows settings, or directly on the mouse itself:

• Press the DPI button on the top of the mouse for 3 seconds.
  The LED lights up for 5 seconds and the button assignment is reversed.

Set the sensitivity of the mouse (DPI rate)

For precise work you can change the resolution of the mouse sensor. The speed of the mouse pointer increases with the level of the DPI rate.

• Press the DPI button on the top of the mouse.
  The LED flashes according to the setting:
  1x = 600 dpi, 2x = 900 dpi (factory setting), 3x = 1200 dpi

Surface under the mouse

The mouse is most effective on a light-colored, textured surface, which saves energy and ensures optimal motion detection.
A reflective surface is not suitable for using the mouse on.

Energy-saving function

The mouse switches to energy-saving mode if it is not moved for 10 seconds. The first movement switches it back on automatically.
When the mouse is transported, it recognizes this as movement and is permanently activated. Therefore, to save the battery, you should switch the mouse off during transport (switch in "OFF" position).

Battery status

When the voltage of the mouse batteries decreases, the LED starts flashing.

• Replace the batteries as soon as possible.

Cleaning the mouse

1. Switch the mouse off.

NOTICE: Damage due to aggressive cleaning agents or liquid in the mouse

• Do not use solvents such as benzene, alcohol, scouring agents or abrasive scourers for cleaning the mouse.
• Prevent any liquid from getting inside the mouse.

2. Clean the mouse with a slightly damp cloth and some mild detergent (such as washing-up liquid).
3. Dry the mouse with a soft, lint-free cloth.

If the mouse is not working

• Switch the mouse off and on again.
• Check whether the batteries are inserted correctly and have sufficient voltage.
• Connect the receiver to a USB 2.0 port on your PC/laptop (this usually has a white or black guide). Malfunctions occasionally occur on USB 3.0 ports (blue guide).
• Connect the receiver to another USB 2.0 port on the PC/laptop.

Disposing of the devices and batteries

• Do not dispose of devices and batteries with this symbol in household waste.
• Take the batteries out of the devices.
• Dispose of the devices and batteries in accordance with statutory regulations – at your local dealer or at municipal recycling centers.
