Use of a keyboard or pointing device may be linked to serious injuries or disorders.

When using a computer, as with many activities, you may experience occasional discomfort in your hands, arms, shoulders, neck, or other parts of your body. However, if you experience symptoms such as persistent or recurring discomfort, pain, throbbing, aching, tingling, numbness, burning sensation, or stiffness, DO NOT IGNORE THESE WARNING SIGNS. PROMPTLY SEE A QUALIFIED HEALTH PROFESSIONAL, even if symptoms occur when you are not working at your computer. Symptoms such as these can be associated with painful and sometimes permanently disabling injuries or disorders of the nerves, muscles, tendons, or other parts of the body. These musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) include carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis, tenosynovitis, and other conditions.

While researchers are not yet able to answer many questions about MSDs, there is general agreement that many factors may be linked to their occurrence, including: medical and physical conditions, stress and how one copes with it, overall health, and how a person positions and uses his or her body during work and other activities (including use of a keyboard or pointing device). Some studies suggest that the amount of time a person uses a keyboard may also be a factor. Some guidelines that may help you work more comfortably with your computer and possibly reduce your risk of experiencing an MSD can be found in the “Healthy Computing Guide” topic of the User’s Guide provided with each software program on your CD-ROM. If you do not have the CD-ROM for this product, you can access the “Healthy Computing Guide” at http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/, or (in the United States only) call 1-800-360-7561 to request a CD-ROM at no charge. If you have questions about how your own lifestyle, activities, or medical or physical condition may be related to MSDs, see a qualified health professional.

Wireless Desktop

Welcome

Congratulations on your purchase of a Microsoft® wireless suite—which includes a wireless keyboard, wireless mouse, and a dual receiver. Setting up the devices takes a few simple steps, and then you can enjoy the freedom of wireless technology and the convenience of a clutter-free desktop.

Important! Install the Software

Your Microsoft wireless suite includes a CD-ROM with IntelliType Pro keyboard software and IntelliPoint mouse software. This software enables the unique features of your wireless devices and provides battery status information.

Note If you do not already have a mouse, you can connect the receiver (step 5) before software installation so you can use your mouse during Setup.

To install IntelliType Pro keyboard software and IntelliPoint mouse software

1 Insert the software installation CD-ROM into the computer’s CD-ROM drive.

If the Setup screen does not appear automatically, do the following:

• Click the Start button, and then click Run.

• Type [drive]:setup. For example, if your CD-ROM drive is drive E, type e:setup

2 Click Install Microsoft IntelliType Pro to begin the keyboard software installation.

Follow the Setup Wizard instructions on the screen.

3 Restart the computer, if prompted to do so, before proceeding.

If the Setup screen does not appear after IntelliType Pro installation is complete, do the following:

• Click the Start button, and then click Run.

• Type [drive]:setup. For example, if your CD-ROM drive is drive E, type e:setup

4 Click Install Microsoft IntelliPoint to begin the mouse software installation.

Follow the Setup Wizard instructions on the screen, and then restart the computer, if prompted to do so.

Note After you install each software product and restart the computer (if necessary), a Quick Start Guide opens automatically, which describes the keyboard or mouse features.

Insert the Batteries

The keyboard and mouse each require two batteries, which are included in the package. Whenever you insert batteries, always make sure both of them are new. Alkaline batteries are recommended.

To insert the batteries

1 Turn the device upside down, and then remove the battery compartment cover.

2 Insert new batteries, making sure to properly orient the positive (+) and negative (–)

ends as specified by the battery compartment labels.

3 Close the battery compartment cover.

Important Before boarding any aircraft, remove the batteries from the wireless keyboard

and mouse. The wireless keyboard and mouse can transmit radio frequency (RF) energy, much like a cellular telephone, whenever batteries are installed and either a key is pressed on the keyboard or the mouse is moved.

Position the Receiver, Keyboard, and Mouse

For optimum performance, position the receiver so that it is at least 8 inches (20 cm)

away from the keyboard, mouse, and any items that might cause interference. Items that might cause interference include: computer monitors, large metal objects (such as computer cases and metal furniture), desktop fans, or fluorescent lights.

The keyboard or mouse may work up to 6 feet (1.8 m) away from the receiver. This distance varies depending on the positioning of the receiver and wireless devices, nearby items causing interference, and other factors.

Connect the Receiver to Your Computer

The connection procedure depends on the type of computer you are using. A PS/2 con-

nection is recommended for Windows (USB) keyboards may not be fully supported on these systems.

PS/2 connection (Windows)

1 Shut down and turn off the computer.

2 Plug the purple PS/2 connector into the computer’s round PS/2 keyboard port, which

may be similarly colored and labeled with a keyboard icon.

3 Attach the green USB-to-PS/2 adapter to the USB connector, and then plug it into the

computer’s round PS/2 mouse port, which may be similarly colored and labeled with a mouse icon.

4 Turn on the computer.
