Scroll wheel is not working or scrolling erratically
Clean the scroll wheel gently with a dry cloth. If it's a touch scroll, ensure your finger is making adequate contact. Check mouse settings in your operating system for any specific scroll configuration.
Mouse is unresponsive
Check battery levels. Turn the mouse off and on using the power switch. If using the USB receiver, unplug and replug it. If using Bluetooth, try disconnecting and reconnecting.
Cursor jumps or lags
Ensure the optical sensor on the underside of the mouse is clean and free from debris. Use the mouse on a suitable surface; avoid highly reflective or uneven surfaces. Adjust DPI settings in your operating system if possible.
