9. SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE

SAFETY GUIDELINES

In order to achieve maximum safety while using your Razer Nommo Chroma, we suggest that you
adopt the following guidelines:

Should you have trouble operating the device properly and troubleshooting does not work, unplug
the device and contact the Razer hotline or go to razersupport.com for support.

Do not take apart the device (doing so will void your warranty) and do not attempt to operate it
under abnormal current loads.

Keep the device away from liquid, humidity or moisture. Operate the device only within the specific
temperature range of 0°C (32°F) to 40°C (104°F). Should the temperature exceed this range, unplug
and/or switch off the device in order to let the temperature stabilize to an optimal level.

COMFORT

Research has shown that long periods of repetitive motion, improper positioning of your computer
peripherals, incorrect body position, and poor habits may be associated with physical discomfort and
injury to nerves, tendons, and muscles. Below are some guidelines to avoid injury and ensure
optimum comfort while using your Razer Nommo Chroma.

▪ Position your keyboard and monitor directly in front of you with your mouse next to it. Place

your elbows next to your side, not too far away and your keyboard within easy reach.

▪ Adjust the height of your chair and table so that the keyboard and mouse are at or below

elbow-height.

▪ Keep your feet well supported, posture straight and your shoulders relaxed.
▪ During gameplay, relax your wrist and keep it straight. If you do the same tasks with your

hands repeatedly, try not to bend, extend or twist your hands for long periods.

▪ Do not rest your wrists on hard surfaces for long periods. Use a wrist rest to support your wrist

while gaming.

▪ Customize the keys on your keyboard to suit your style of gaming in order to minimize

repetitive or awkward motions while gaming.

▪ Do not sit in the same position all day. Get up, step away from your desk and do exercises to

stretch your arms, shoulders, neck and legs.

FOR GA ME R S. BY G AM ER S.™

25

If you should experience any physical discomfort while using your mouse, such as pain, numbness, or
tingling in your hands, wrists, elbows, shoulders, neck or back, please consult a qualified medical
doctor immediately.

MAINTENANCE AND USE

The Razer Nommo Chroma requires minimum maintenance to keep it in optimum condition. Once a
month we recommend you unplug the device from the computer and clean it using a soft cloth or
cotton swab with a bit of warm water to prevent dirt buildup. Do not use soap or harsh cleaning
agents.

To get the ultimate experience in movement and control, we highly recommend a premium mouse
mat from Razer. Some surfaces will cause undue wear on the feet requiring constant care and
eventual replacement.

Do note that the sensor of the Razer Nommo Chroma is ‘tuned’ or optimized especially for the Razer
mouse mats. This means that the sensor has been tested extensively to confirm that the Razer
Nommo Chroma reads and tracks best on Razer mouse mats.
