Mouse battery recharging

The mouse uses two AAA size Ni-MH rechargeable batteries. After installation of the fresh

batteries, it is recommended to charge them (place the mouse on the charging stand) for

15 hours to prolong their life. Please, make sure the Charge indicator is ON when you

charge the mouse.

If you feel the wireless mouse does not work smoothly, then the most probable reason is

that the batteries should be recharged. Please, put the mouse on the stand to charge them.

Normally it takes 12 hours to get the batteries fully charged.

NOTE: Some computers turn the power of the USB port off in the sleep mode. In this case

the battery won’t be charged. Therefore you would have to keep your computer always ON

to charge the mouse.

Software Installation

The supplied driver lets you program the mouse buttons and works under Win95, Win98,

Win98/SE, Win 2000 and Win XP. Please, insert the CD into the CD-ROM drive of your

computer. The driver will be installed automatically if the auto-run is enabled in your

computer, otherwise you can manually launch the installation by double clicking the file

Wireless optical mouse

“setup.exe” on the CD. Then follow the on-screen instructions to finish the setup.

A small mouse icon will appear in the Windows system tray after the installation.

Double-click on the icon to change the mouse settings.

Troubleshooting

Problem description Proposed solution

Mouse does not work upon

installation

Try one of the following:

� For optimal performance, place the receiver at

least eight inches or 20 centimeters away from the

mouse or other electrical devices, such as the

computers, computer monitor, or external drive

� Make sure you have installed the batteries

correctly.

� If you are working on a metal surface, try using a

mouse pad and put the receiver on its side for

better reception.

� Press the CONNECT button on the receiver, and

then press the Connect button on the mouse.

Mouse is not detected by the

Try one of the following:

� Make sure the receiver cable is plugged into the

� Make sure your USB port is properly configured.

Refer to your computer documentation for the

correct configuration instructions.

� You may have other system devices (e.g. a LAN

card) that conflicts with your mouse. Check the

IRQ/address settings of these devices for

conflicts, and change the settings.

The cursor on the screen does not

move properly

Try one of the following:

� Change the position of the receiver, because it

might be too far from the mouse or perhaps

computer monitor or another large metal object is

interfering with the receiver’s radio channel.

� Charge the battery

� You might also need to change the mouse

channel . Press the Connect button on the receiver,

and then press the Connect button on the mouse.

� If your table surface is red or highly reflective like

a mirror, the optical sensor of the mouse might not

be able to operate properly. Try using a mouse pad

or change the tabletop surface.
