Cleaning a Non-Optical Mouse

1Clean the outside casing of the mouse with a cloth moistened with a mild cleaning solution.

2Turn the retainer ring on the underside of your mouse counterclockwise, and then remove the ball.

3Wipe the ball with a clean, lint-free cloth.

4Blow carefully into the ball cage or use a can of compressed air to dislodge dust and lint.

5If the rollers inside the ball cage are dirty, clean the rollers with a cotton swab moistened lightly with isopropyl alcohol.

6Recenter the rollers in their channels if they are misaligned. Ensure that fluff from the swab is not left on the rollers.

7Replace the ball and retainer ring, and turn the retainer ring clockwise until it clicks into place.

If you notice problems, such as skipping, with the playback quality of your media, try cleaning the discs.

1Hold the disc by its outer edge. You can also touch the inside edge of the center hole.
