Things to Remember

Safety Measures

Mouse Models PAUM003 v2, NW03BM and NW04MM

If you are usin g an optical m ouse, never point the optical
sensor toward the face, particu la rl y the eyes, to avoid possible
injury.

Operating Hints

Mouse Models PAUM003 v2, NW03BM and NW04MM

If you are using an optical mouse, for optimal performance:

• Never use the mouse on a glass or mirrored surface or on
black velvet as these surfaces wi ll cause the mouse to fail
temporarily.

8

• Avoid using the mouse on surfaces with repetitive patte rns,
such as printed magazine photographs, as this type of surface
may cause the mouse to respond slowly or fail temporarily.

Comfortable Usage

All Mouse Models

Research suggests that physical discomfort and injury to
nerves, tendons, and muscles may be related to repetitive
motion, an improperly set up wo rk area, incorrect body
posture, and poor work habits.

To reduce the risk of injury, follow these prec autions:

• Stand, stretch, and move around sever al times every hour.

• Switch hands while performing tasks. Use short cu t ke ys to
avoid repetitive or awkward m ouse movements.

• Relax your shoulders and keep yo ur el bows at your sides.
Adjust the keyboard’s position so that you don’t have to
stretch to reach it.

• Adjust your position so that you don’t have t o bend your
wrists to type; avoid placing your wrists on a sharp edge.

If you feel discomfort or numbness in your hands, wrists, arms,
shoulders, neck, or back wh il e ty pi ng, consult a qualified
medical prof es s ional.
