This section provides instructions on how to clean an optical or non-optical mouse.

2.Disconnect the mouse cable from the computer.

3.Turn the mouse upside down to look at the lens.

a.If there is a smudge on the lens, gently clean the area with a plain cotton-tipped swab.

b.If there is debris in the lens, gently blow the debris away from the area.
