Operating Hints
For optimal performance and RF reception:
› Avoid using the Mouse Presenter on a metal surface.
Metals, such as iron, aluminum or copper, shield the
radio frequency transmission and may slow down the
mouse presenter’s response time or cause the mouse
presenter to fail temporarily.
› The Mouse Presenter will enter a suspend mode at the
same time your computer does. Click a button on the
mouse presenter to activate it.
› If your computer has a metal case that contains alumi-
num or magnesium, use the Mouse Presenter to the
side. The display panel may interfere with the radio fre-
quency signal if you use the mouse presenter directly in
front of the computer.
› Never use the Mouse Presenter on a glass or mirrored
surface as these surfaces will cause the mouse pre-
senter to fail temporarily.
› To maximize battery life, use the Mouse Presenter on a
white, or light colored surface. Dark surfaces cause the
10
Targus Ultra-Mini Wireless Optical Mouse Presenter
mouse presenter’s LED light to glow brighter, which
causes the battery to discharge more rapidly.
Comfortable Usage
Research suggests that physical discomfort and injury to
nerves, tendons, and muscles may be related to repetitive
motion, an improperly set up work area, incorrect body
posture, and poor work habits.
To reduce the risk of injury, follow these precautions:
› Stand, stretch, and move around several times every
hour.
› Switch hands while performing tasks. Use shortcut
keys to avoid repetitive or awkward mouse movements.
› Relax your shoulders and keep your elbows 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 to 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 while typing, consult a
qualified medical professional.
Safety Measures
› Never point the Mouse Presenter at people, especially
their faces, or look directly into the Mouse Presenter’s
laser beam, to avoid possible eye damage.
› Avoid pointing the Mouse Presenter’s laser beam at a
mirror or other highly reflective surface.
› Keep the Mouse Presenter away from young children.
11
Targus Ultra-Mini Wireless Optical Mouse Presenter
› Never view the Mouse Presenter’s laser beam using
telescopic devices, such as a microscope or binocu-
lars.
› Any attempt to disassemble, adjust or repair the Mouse
Presenter may result in exposure to laser light or other
safety hazards.
› This is a Class II Laser Product.
Things to Remember
Batteries
General
› You must synchronize every time you change the
batteries.
› Always use rechargeable batteries only. The charge
unit will not charge the mouse presenter with alkaline
batteries and alkaline batteries can cause damage to
the mouse presenter and charger base.
› To extend the life of your batteries, turn off the mouse
presenter while traveling.
Sleep Mode
› The mouse presenter’s sleep mode feature activates
after 8 minutes of non-operation.
› To wake the mouse presenter from sleep mode, move
the mouse presenter or click a button on the mouse
presenter.

Troubleshooting
What do I do if the Mouse Presenter does not work?
› Make sure that the polarity of the batteries is correct.
The positive (+) and negative (-) ends of each battery
must match the positive (+) and negative (-) connec-
tions in the battery housing.
› Make sure that the batteries are fully charged.
› Check that the receiver’s USB connector is firmly
attached to the USB port on your computer.
› Verify that the device drivers are installed.
› Make sure you have established a wireless link
between the mouse presenter and its receiver. See
When I use the Mouse Presenter, other wireless
devices work more slowly or fail temporarily – what
should I do?
The mouse presenter may cause interference with any
cordless, radio-based device that operates at 27 MHz,
such as a telephone, baby monitor, or toy. To reduce
interference, move the mouse’s receiver and the base unit
of the affected device as far away from each other as
possible.
What do I do if the response time of the Mouse
Presenter is slow or the mouse presenter
intermittently stops working?
› Increase the distance between the mouse presenter’s
receiver and the rest of your computer equipment.
› Increase the distance between the mouse presenter’s
receiver and the base units of other wireless devices.
14
› Turn off any wireless devices and their base units that
are near the mouse presenter’s receiver.
› If you are using the Mouse Presenter on a metal sur-
face, move it and the receiver to a non-metal surface.
Metals, such as iron, aluminum or copper, shield the
radio frequency transmission and may slow down the
mouse presenter’s response time or cause the mouse
presenter to fail temporarily.
I can’t use the Mouse Presenter while another RF
mouse presenter is in use – what should I do?
Reset the identification code. See “Synchronizing” on
