Figure 4. Removing and cleaning the mouse ball
Mouse Maintenance
The scroller mini mouse may collect dust and dirt that can interfere with its
operation. You can avoid potential problems by keeping your work area
clean and free from dust. Whenever the cursor movement becomes
abnormal, follow the steps that correspond to the type of mouse you have:
To clean the scroller wheel and mouse ball:
1 Unplug the USB connector from the computer, or if you are
using the PS/2 Adapter, turn off the computer.
2 Turn the mouse upside down and remove the mouse
ball retainer by turning it counter-clockwise until it
becomes loose.
3 Remove the retainer and the mouse ball.
4 Dampen a lint-free cloth or cotton swab with rubbing
alcohol to clean the surface of the mouse ball.
5 Dampen a cotton swab with rubbing alcohol to clean the two
black rollers inside the bottom of the mouse.
6 Replace the mouse ball and retainer. Turn the retainer
clockwise until it is tightly in place.
