Operating distance between the mouse or keyboard

In an ideal environment, a mouse or keyboard can operate up to 30 feet (10 meters) away from the USB receiver in a clear line of sight.

If you’re not getting this distance, try these suggestions:

Replace the battery/batteries or make sure your mouse or keyboard is fully charged

Move devices that emit radio waves or could cause radio interference away from your work area (Examples: cell phones, radios, wireless routers, microwaves)

To determine if your environment is shortening your operating range, try using your device in a different environment to see if the distance improves. If it does, look for other possible sources of interference you can remove from your work area.

Extending battery life

Your mouse enters standby mode to conserve power when it is not in use. Here are some other ways you can help extend the battery life:

• Use only alkaline batteries. Non-alkaline batteries (such as NiMH or NiCd) operate at a lower voltage and may affect the battery life.
• Avoid using your mouse on dark or transparent surfaces, such as glass. These surfaces cause the optical sensor to use more power.

Make sure replacement batteries are new and within the manufacturer’s expiration date.

Use the MK295 mouse and keyboard with a different USB receiver

Your wireless combo ships with a dedicated receiver.

If you lost the USB receiver and your device is within the warranty period, please contact Logitech Customer Care for assistance. To pair the devices, see USB Wireless Receiver – Pairing and Troubleshooting.

NOTE: Because this product uses a dedicated USB receiver, you will not be able to pair it to a Unifying device. You also cannot connect this USB receiver with another model.
