Cleaning the mouse
If the mouse pointer on the screen moves erratically when you move the
mouse, the inside of the mouse may be dirty.
To clean the mouse:
1 Turn off the server, then disconnect the mouse cable from the mouse port.
2 Turn your mouse upside down and remove the roller ball cover.
3 Cup your hand under the mouse and turn your mouse right-side up. The
roller ball should drop into your hand. If it does not, gently shake the
mouse until the ball drops out of the socket.
4 Use adhesive tape to pick up any dust or lint on the surface of the ball.
5 Wipe away dirt or lint inside the ball socket with a lint-free cloth. You
can also blow into the socket to remove dirt and lint. Use a cotton swab
dipped in isopropyl alcohol to clean the rollers inside the socket.
6 Let surfaces dry completely.
7 Return the ball to the socket and replace the cover.
