Put the ball and the ring back in place.

Your mouse should roll smoothly across your mouse pad or desk. If it doesn’t,
repeat these instructions carefully.

Locking and unlocking the mouse

Some mouse devices can be locked so that the ball can’t be removed. A
locking mouse has a small hole on the plastic ring.

To lock the mouse, follow these steps:

1

Insert a straightened paper clip into the hole on the plastic ring.

2

Press down on the paper clip while you turn the ring clockwise.

Turn the ring a very short distance, until it stops. When the recessed area on
the ring is not lined up with the recessed area surrounding the ring, the mouse
is locked.

The mouse ring is locked when the recessed area on the ring
does not line up with the recessed area surrounding the ring.
