Full details

The CHERRY AK-PMH3 Medical Mouse is designed for professionals in hygiene-critical environments like hospitals and labs. Its primary benefit is its fully sealed, 100% waterproof IP68-rated silicone casing, allowing for thorough disinfection with hospital-approved agents.

Troubleshooting

Mouse cursor is not moving

Ensure the USB cable is securely connected to the computer. Try plugging the mouse into a different USB port. Check if the mouse is recognized in the device manager. Clean the sensor area gently with a dry, lint-free cloth.

Buttons or scroll wheel are unresponsive

Check for any debris around the buttons or scroll wheel. If cleaned with liquid, ensure the mouse is completely dry. Restart your computer. If the issue persists, the mouse may require servicing.

Inconsistent cursor movement

Ensure the surface the mouse is used on is clean and suitable for the blue light sensor. Avoid using the mouse on highly reflective or transparent surfaces if not specifically designed for them. Clean the sensor area as described above.
