How to use

Install one AA battery in the battery compartment and power on the mouse. To use via Bluetooth, put the mouse into Bluetooth pairing mode and select it from your device’s Bluetooth settings. To use the 2.4 GHz dongle, insert the dongle into a free USB port; the mouse should connect automatically. Adjust DPI settings through compatible software or device settings if supported. Use the center button and scroll wheel for vertical and horizontal scrolling and access customizable shortcuts via the Microsoft Wheel setting where available.

Recommendations

For prolonged reliable operation, use a fresh AA battery and keep the silicone surface clean with a soft, damp cloth; avoid harsh chemicals. Choose Bluetooth for a cable-free setup when you have built-in Bluetooth, or use the 2.4 GHz dongle for a low-latency connection on systems without Bluetooth. Clean and sanitize regularly in shared environments to maintain hygiene.
