Precautions
Bluetooth communications
• The 2.4 GHz band used by Bluetooth and wireless LAN devices is also
used by various other devices. Bluetooth devices incorporate technology
that minimizes interference from other devices using the same
wavelength. However, communication speed and achievable distances
may be reduced. Interference from other devices can also stop
communications altogether.

• The data transfer rate will vary depending on distance and obstacles
between devices, device configuration, radio interference, operating
system, software application, and so on. In some cases, communication

Hint
Under normal operating conditions, a set of alkaline batteries lasts about
one and a half months*. When cursor movement becomes sluggish and the
communication distance between the mouse and your personal computer
decreases, check the status light on the mouse.
When not using the mouse, close the button cover to set the power to off.
This will extend battery life.
* This estimate is based on five hours of use per day, five days per week.
