Cleaning Your Apple Mouse

You may need to clean your mouse from time to time to remove dirt and dust that has

accumulated in the scroll ball area. Hold the mouse upside-down and roll the scroll ball

vigorously with the cloth that came with your iMac, or another clean, soft, lint-free

cloth, to help dislodge any particles that may interfere with proper scrolling.

Understanding Ergonomics

Here are some tips for setting up a healthy work environment.

Keyboard

When you use the keyboard, your shoulders should be relaxed. Your upper arm and

forearm should form an approximate right angle, with your wrist and hand in roughly a

straight line.

Change hand positions often to avoid fatigue. Some computer users might develop

discomfort in their hands, wrists, or arms after intensive work without breaks. If you

begin to develop chronic pain or discomfort in your hands, wrists, or arms, consult a

qualified health specialist.

Mouse

Position the mouse at the same height as the keyboard and within a comfortable

reach.
