Additional information about using a wireless mouse

 Press the CONNECT button located on the bottom of the infrared receiver first, and then press the Connect button
on the bottom of the mouse.

Verify the infrared receiver is free of obstructions that may prevent proper operation.

Avoid using radio-controlled toys or equipment, CB radios, and other wireless devices in the area near your wireless

 Do not place metal furniture near your computer or wireless mouse, as this may create interference, causing your
mouse to stop working properly.
A wireless mouse requires an appropriate surface texture in order to provide precision pointing and tracking.

Use surfaces such as plain paper, card stock, or fabric that have minimal repetitive patterns.

Avoid surfaces such as mirrors, smooth glass, or magazines that have half- tone printing.
