Tips for Keeping Your Mouse in Good Condition

Maintaining your ergonomic mouse ensures it performs optimally and lasts longer. Here are some tips for keeping your mouse in top condition:

1. Regular Cleaning:

   • Surface Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior of the mouse regularly. For more thorough cleaning, dampen the cloth with water or a mild detergent.
   • Sensor Cleaning: Use a cotton swab to gently clean the sensor on the bottom of the mouse. This helps maintain accurate tracking.
   • Button Cleaning: Use compressed air to remove dust and debris from around the buttons and scroll wheel.

2. Avoid Spills:

   • Keep liquids away from your mouse to prevent damage. If a spill occurs, immediately unplug the mouse (if wired) and clean it as thoroughly as possible.

3. Proper Storage:

   • When not in use, store your mouse in a clean, dry place. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or direct sunlight.

4. Cable Care:

   • For wired mice, ensure the cable is not bent or twisted. Store the cable loosely coiled to prevent damage.
