WARNING
To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose the unit to rain or
moisture.
Caution
Do not look directly into the lens. The laser light may cause eye injury.
To prevent battery fluid leaks and damage, observe the following precautions:
Insert the battery with the c/- orientation.
Do not charge a dry cell battery.
If the mouse has not been used for a long time, remove the battery.
If a battery fluid leak occurs, carefully wipe the battery compartment, and
insert a new battery.
To prevent accidental operation, be careful not to press any buttons when
replacing the battery.
If any solid object or liquid falls onto the mouse, set the power to off and have
it checked by qualified personnel before continuing its use.
Do not place the mouse in a location where it is:
On an unstable surface
In very humid areas or where there is no ventilation
Subject to excessive dust
Subject to direct sunlight or extreme heat
Extremely cold
If the mouse is brought directly from a cold to a warm location or is placed in a
very damp room, moisture may condense on the inside of the mouse. If this
occurs, the mouse may not work properly.
In this case, wait about 30 minutes for the moisture to evaporate. If the mouse
does not work properly after one hour, consult your nearest Sony dealer.
Keep away the wireless receiver and battery from children.

Troubleshooting
If you are not able to locate a solution in this section, contact a Sony authorized
dealer.
Nothing happens when I press a mouse button.
The receiver is not connected properly to the USB port.
Close all programs, and then reconnect the receiver to your computer.
The operating system is not compatible.
Use a supported operating system.
The USB port is not available.
Check the “System Properties” of your personal computer.
The mouse battery is drained.
If the status lamp does not light when the mouse is turned on, replace the
battery. For details, see “Preparations”.
The mouse and receiver are not communicating.
Perform steps of “Enabling communication between the mouse and
receiver” to ensure that proper communication is possible.
In some operating environments, the usable distance may be notably
shorter, preventing normal operation. In such a case, use the mouse farther
away from other electronic devices such as other computers and displays.
If the mouse is too far from the receiver, communication is not possible.
Bring the mouse and receiver closer together.
The mouse may have difficulty communicating in a 2.4 GHz wireless LAN
environment.
It is best to use the mouse in a location with low interference from wireless
devices.
The scrolling features do not work.
The operating system is not compatible.
Use a supported operating system.
The program you are using is not compatible with the scrolling features.
The scrolling features only work with programs that use a scroll function.
Some programs do not support the scrolling features.
After the receiver was installed, the computer was returned to normal mode from
power-saving mode.
Disconnect the receiver from the USB port, wait a few seconds, and then
reconnect it.
The pointer does not move when I move the mouse.
Processing performed by Windows or other software may temporarily
disable the mouse. Wait a few moments for the processing to finish before
using the mouse.
You may find some useful solutions in your computer’s operating
instructions. Refer to the manuals provided with your computer.
Also see “Nothing happens when I press a mouse button.”
The mouse pointer does not move smoothly across the screen.
Due to the characteristics of the laser sensor, the mouse may not work properly
on transparent surfaces, or on a mouse pad that has a clear surface. Avoid using
on such materials. A commercially-available mouse pad that is compatible with a
laser sensor mouse is recommended.
I cannot make the computer exit power-saving mode with the
mouse, or it takes a long time.
Press any key or the power button on the keyboard.
When I start the computer an error message appears, saying that
the mouse is not connected.
Select the check box that offers not to display this message again, and then click
“OK”.
The mouse does not move smoothly after returning the computer
from the power-saving mode.
Disconnect the receiver from the USB port, wait a few seconds, and then
reconnect it.
After connecting the receiver, it takes a while before the mouse can
be used.
If the receiver is connected while the computer is processing commands from
Windows, other software, or another USB device, it may take a while for the
computer to detect the receiver.
