IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Some experts believe that using any mouse or trackball may cause serious injury to hands, wrists,
arms, neck, or back. If you feel pain, numbness, or weakness in these areas, please consult a
qualified health professional immediately.
To reduce the risk of injury, please follow these precautions:
•
Take frequent breaks, get up and walk around several times every hour.
•
Vary your tasks throughout the day.
•
Keep your shoulders relaxed with your elbows at your side. Position your keyboard and mouse
so you do not have to reach.
•
Adjust your chair and keyboard so your upper arms and wrists are straight.
•
Avoid resting your wrists on sharp edges.
Please note that the Saitek Gaming Mouse will not function correctly on a glass or mirror surface.
For best results we strongly recommended that you use your Gaming Mouse on a bright surface
with a smooth texture.
