When power switch on, put the mouse on a plain surface for 10 seconds or more

▶ This is an important process to obtain the location information by the earth's magnetic

property. If neglect this process, the mouse may loose pointing accuracy.
If the mouse's pointing accuracy falls down while operation, please put the mouse
again on a plain surface for 5~10 seconds to refresh the location information.
This is never a trouble of the mouse. Don't worry about this.
