How To Use Your Mouse

Care for Your Mouse

Maintenance of your Belkin (ball-style) Mouse is important. It is designed to provide years of trouble-free service. A self-cleaning ball cage helps prevent dust and lint from building up around the ball. However, if the pointer should skip or move abnormally on-screen, we recommend you clean your mouse manually.

a.First, turn the retainer ring counter clockwise to remove the ball

b.Wipe the ball with a clean lint-free cloth

c.Blow into the ball cage to dislodge any dust and lint. If there is build-up on the rubber rollers inside the ball cage, clean them using a cotton swab, lightly soaked with isopropyl alcohol to remove any debris.

d.User maintenance is not required on optical model mice.

Get to know your options!

Programming your scroll wheel couldn't get any easier. On the bottom right-hand corner of your screen, you will find a yellow box with an orange triangle in it. Click on it, then click "Open".

Starting with the Universal Scroll section, you will be allowed to choose and restrict the direction your mouse can scroll. "X-Scroll" and "Y-Scroll" are already selected for you. This allows you to scroll left/right and up/down, respectively. Clicking off the "X-Scroll" restricts scrolling to up and down only, while clicking off the "Y-Scroll" sets scrolling for left and right only. Clicking off both disables the scrolling features of the wheel.

The "Direction Reverse" field will reverse your scroll direction. Clicking it, depressing the wheel, and moving your mouse to the left lets you scroll to the right (and vice versa).

Your MiniScroller Optical Mouse will let you scroll by lines or by pages. Choosing to scroll by page is recommended for larger documents that you need to browse quickly. Clicking the scroll wheel once starts the "Auto Browse" mode, in which the appearance of the arrow changes to a dot with four arrows directed away from it. Moving the mouse in the direction that you wish to browse scrolls the page in that direction. Scrolling speed is also adjustable in this mode: the further the pointer gets from your original point, the faster the scrolling occurs.
