User & Troubleshooting Guide
Getting Started
Wired Penguin
Plug the USB cable into an empty USB port.
Wireless Penguin
2.4 GHz Micro USB Receiver. The Micro Receiver is located inside the housing on the
underneath of the Penguin (J). Remove the micro receiver and insert into a spare USB port of
your computer or laptop.
Make sure the ON/OFF switch (F) on the base is in the ‘ON’ position.
Rechargeable Battery. The Wireless Penguin has an internal rechargeable battery. There may be
a certain amount of charge already in the battery. To fully charge the battery, insert the USB
end of the cable (G) into a spare USB port of your computer and the DC end of the cable into
the front of your mouse (I) see diagram. Refer to the Charging Light Sequence section to
indicate the battery level.
Plug & Play
The Penguin Mouse uses Plug & Play technology. No additional software is required.
Right or Left Hand Use
The Penguin is set as a Right Handed mouse by default. To change to a Left Handed mouse,
simply depress the raised section of the rocker switch - ‘Bow Tie’ (D) at the front of the
Penguin. This will adjust the way the scroll wheel instructs the on-screen document scroll action
for the Left Handed user.
Variable DPI [400-600-800-1200]
The default setting is 400 DPI. To adjust, press and release the DPI button (E) on the base of the
Penguin. The illuminated ‘P’ logo will flash to indicate the DPI has been changed.
400: The illuminated ‘P’ logo will remain constant (default setting)
600: The illuminated ‘P’ logo will flash (5Hz) for five seconds
800: The illuminated ‘P’ logo will flash (10Hz) faster for five seconds
1200: The illuminated ‘P’ logo will flash (20Hz) fastest for five seconds

Precision Scroll Wheel with Auto Scroll
As well as a soft touch and feel Precision Scroll Wheel (C), the Penguin Mouse has an Auto Scroll
feature. To activate this, click the Scroll Wheel inwards or downwards and the auto scroll is
activated. Move the Penguin forwards or backwards to start auto scrolling at the desired speed.
Click the scroll wheel again and the Auto Scroll is stopped.
On/Off Switch –Wireless Penguin Model Only
For normal working conditions, make sure the ON/OFF switch (F) is turned to the ‘ON’ position.
The ON/OFF switch is located on the base of the Penguin.
Note: It is advised to switch to the ‘OFF’ position if the Penguin is to be transported as this will
conserve power.
Auto Power Save (wireless Penguin only)
There is an auto ‘power save’ with the Wireless Penguin that will turn the illuminated ‘P’ logo
off after approximately 20 seconds of the mouse being inactive. When the Penguin is moved,
the ‘P’ logo will re-illuminate and the mouse will be active.
Rechargeable Battery Low Power Level Indicator (wireless Penguin only)
Ice Blue Flashing Light = Low battery (approximately 20% charge remaining)
Charging Light Sequence (wireless Penguin only)
When the charging cable is connected, a series of colored lights in the illuminated ‘P’ logo will
indicate different battery levels.
Penguin in ACTIVE Mode:
Orange light with flashing Ice Blue light = Battery charging but level is below a 20% charge level
Orange light with constant Ice Blue light = Battery charging but level is above a 20% charge level
Ice Blue light only = Battery fully charged
Penguin in INACTIVE Mode:
Orange light will appear and charging will continue but Ice Blue light will be off as in sleep
mode.
Troubleshooting Guide
• Try using a different USB port to connect your Penguin, if possible plug it directly into the
computer i.e. not through any monitor/keyboard/hub etc.
• Check that the sensor on the underside of the Penguin is not covered and has a clear line of
sight to the surface below.
• Try using the Penguin on a mouse mat or unreflective surface.
• Make sure that your desk surface and Penguin base is free from dust and dirt.
• Although your Penguin is Plug & Play, it is worth making sure that your computer is up to date
with the latest drivers / operating software for pointing devices.

Wireless Penguin
• Make sure that the ON/OFF switch is on the ‘ON’ position.
• Check that the Penguin has enough charge.
• Make sure the USB Micro Receiver is firmly plugged into the USB port of your computer.

while intermittently clicking the Left or Right click buttons.
