Aptiva - How to select a different channel for a cordless mouse

Applicable to: Canada, United States

On the side of the Receiver (the part that is plugged into the mouse port of the computer) there is a small switch between a picture of one mouse and two mice. Move the switch to the Two position, then back to One.
On the bottom of the Mouse press and HOLD the small blue button until the Receiver light blinks. This could take up to 30 seconds. This changes the channel and establishes communication between the Mouse and the Receiver.

NOTE: If the light on the bottom of the Mouse does not light when the button is pressed, it may need new batteries.
