Caring for the Mouse
Make sure that the operating surface for the mouse is smooth, clean, and flat. For
example, you can operate the mouse on the following surfaces:
Finished wood
Glass
Enamel
Plastic
Paper (except newspaper)
Metal
Rough surfaces collect contaminants that can be transferred to the interior of the
mouse by the ball. Rough surfaces can also cause the pads located on the bottom
of the mouse to prematurely wear. A deeply pitted surface could cause erratic
operation of the mouse. The surface you use should be free from spills, dirt, dust,
lint, wax, eraser dust, and other foreign matter.
Additional things to check:
Inspect the work surface for spills or other contaminants.
Dust the work surface.
If you are using a paper pad, inspect it for wear and replace it if necessary.
