anywhere within 4.5 feet of its receiver. No line-of-sight between

the mouse and its receiver is required.

The optical mouse also provides a scrolling wheel and three

user-programmable buttons for multimedia use.

pressing the battery cover tab and siding it off.

2 Insert the supplied battery, making sure that the positive (+)

and negative (-) end of the battery match the polarity indicators

inside the battery housing.

3 Slide the battery cover back into position until it “clicks”

firmly into place.

The optical sensor, located on the bottom of the mouse, glows

red.

WARNINGS: When replacing the battery, if you are using the

mouse with the charger base, you must use heavy-duty NiMH

rechargeablebatteries toavoid possibledamage tothe mouse

and charger.

If you are using the mouse without the charger base, you may

use alkaline or other heavy-duty NiMH batteries.

Setting the Radio Frequency Channel

Before you establish a link between the optical mouse and its

receiver, you must set the radio frequency channel. To do this,

slide the channel switch to A or B on both the mouse and the

receiver. For the mouse, the switch is located inside the battery

compartment. For the receiver, the switch is located directly

opposite the USB connector.

NOTE: The optical mouse and its receiver must be set to the

same channel to function properly.

Establishing a Communications Link

The optical mouse has 256 identification codes that allow the

mouse and its receiver to operate without interference from other

radio frequency devices.

To set the identification code and establish a radio link between

the mouse and the receiver:

1 Press and release the link button, located on the bottom of the

optical mouse.

2 Press and release the link button on the receiver.

The receiver’s status light flashes while it scans the

identification codes for the mouse. Once a code is selected, the

status light stops flashing.

3 Press and release the screen scroller (middle) button.

You are now ready to use the optical mouse.

NOTE: You must reestablish the communications link every

time you change the batteries.

Operating Hints

For optimal 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

storage devices.

• Avoid using the optical 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 optical mouse will enter a suspend mode at the same time

your computer does. To wake the mouse, press and release the

screen scroller (middle) button.

• If your computer has a metal case that contains aluminum or

magnesium, use the optical mouse to the side. The display

panel may interfere with the radio frequency signal if you use

the mouse directly in front of the computer.

• Never use the optical mouse on a glass or mirrored surface as

these surfaces will cause the mouse to fail temporarily.

• To maximize battery life, use the optical mouse on a white, or

light colored surface. Dark surfaces cause the mouse’s light

emitter diode (LED) light to glow brighter, which causes the

battery to discharge more rapidly.

Comfortable Usage

Research suggests that physical discomfort and injury to nerves,

tendons, and muscles may be related to repetitive motion, an

improperly set up work area, incorrect body posture, and poor

work habits.

To reduce the risk of injury, follow these precautions:

• Stand, stretch, and move around several times every hour.

• Switch hands while performing tasks. Use shortcut keys to

avoid repetitive or awkward mouse movements.

• Relax your shoulders and keep your elbows at your sides.

Adjust the keyboard’s position so that you don’t have to stretch

to reach it.

• Adjust your position so that you don’t have to bend your wrists

to type; avoid placing your wrists on a sharp edge.

If you feel discomfort or numbness in your hands, wrists, arms,

shoulders, neck, or back while typing, consult a qualified medical

professional.
