TARGUS WIRELESS LASER
MOUSE
Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the Targus Wireless
Laser Mouse for the desktop. This ergonomically-designed
mouse offers the latest in laser tracking technology as well
as the most up-to-date wireless features. It allows for
improved tracking accuracy on most types of surfaces, even
some mirror and glass. With 6 channels and 256 IDs per
channel, the mouse's digital signal processor offers a new
level of accuracy and precision in wireless data
transmission. Productivity is enhanced by a practical 8-
button design that includes such short cuts as Internet back
and forward, applications switch and scroll up and down
functions.
Note: While the mouse is functioning, no laser light is
visible to the naked eye. Be careful not to look
directly into the emitter hole while the mouse is
active.

Safety Measures
• Although this mouse is a Class 1 Laser Product and safe
for operation, avoid pointing the laser into the eyes or
looking directly into the laser emitter.
• Keep the mouse away from young children.
• Any attempt to disassemble, adjust or repair the mouse
may result in exposure to laser light or other safety
hazards.
Sleep Mode
The mouse's sleep mode feature activates after 8 minutes
of non-operation. To wake the mouse, click the left, right or
scroll mouse button.
Troubleshooting
What do I do if the mouse does not work?
• Make sure that the polarity of the batteries is correct. The
positive (+) and negative (-) ends of each battery must
match the positive (+) and negative (-) connections in the
battery housing.
• Make sure that the batteries are fully charged. Check your
computer’s suspend mode settings, as the mouse will not
charge while the computer is in suspend mode.
• Check that the receiver's USB connector is firmly
attached to the USB port on your computer or the

extension seat, or that the extensions seat's cable is
connected to your PC.
• Make sure you have established a wireless link between
the mouse and its receiver. See “Synchronization” on
page 5.
I do not see the laser light when the mouse is active.
• Unlike traditional optical mice, the light is not visible when
the laser mouse is active.
• To make sure the mouse is on and functioning properly,
move the mouse back and forth and check to see if the
cursor responds.
My mouse does not work on a mirror or glass sur-
face.
• Though rated for most of these kinds of surfaces,
occasionally there will be one such surface that will cause
the mouse to work improperly or not at all.
• If you are using the mouse on a reflective or mirrored
surface, move it to another surface.
What do I do if the response time of the mouse is
slow or the mouse intermittently stops working?
• "Increase the distance between the mouse's receiver and
the rest of your computer equipment. Use the USB
extension seat if necessary.
• "Increase the distance between the mouse's receiver and
the base units of other wireless devices.
• "Turn off any wireless devices and their base units that
are near the mouse's receiver.

• Metals, such as iron, aluminum or copper may slow down
the mouse's response time or cause the mouse to fail
temporarily.

the receiver to a non-metal surface.
