To use the dongle, simply plug it into a USB port. The mouse will prioritize the dongle connection if it's present and active, or connect via Bluetooth if that's the active pairing.

Troubleshooting
Mouse is not moving the cursor
Ensure the mouse is powered on. Check if the USB dongle is securely plugged into the computer or if the Bluetooth connection is active. Try re-pairing the mouse via Bluetooth. Make sure the surface you are using is compatible or try a mousepad.
Intermittent connectivity or lagging
Check the battery level and replace the AA battery if low. Ensure the USB dongle is not too close to other wireless devices or obstructions. For Bluetooth, check the distance to your computer and ensure there are no major wireless interferences. Try switching connection modes (dongle to Bluetooth or vice versa).
Mouse buttons are not responding
Ensure the mouse is powered on and connected. Try re-connecting the mouse. If the issue persists, it may indicate a hardware problem. Contact HP support if the mouse is still under warranty.
Cannot pair via Bluetooth
Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your computer. Make sure the mouse is in pairing mode (indicator light flashing). Remove any previous pairing attempts for the HP Z3700 from your computer's Bluetooth settings and try pairing again. Restart your computer and the mouse.
Mouse performs poorly on a specific surface
While the mouse features multi-surface tracking, some highly reflective or uneven surfaces may still pose challenges. Try using a different surface or a standard mousepad for optimal performance.
