Logitech G502 Lightspeed Wireless Gaming Mouse
SETUP INSTRUCTIONS
- A wireless receiver attached to the USB adapter can be found in the accessory box. Plug one end of the cable into your PC, and the other end into the USB adapter and receiver.
- The receiver can also be used plugged directly into your PC. However, using the cable and adapter when in wireless mode is recommended and allows for better connectivity and easy access to the cable for recharging.
- Turn the mouse on via the switch on the bottom of the mouse.
- Download Logitech G HUB gaming software
- To charge, disconnect the cable from the adapter and plug it into the front of the mouse. Your mouse will operate in data‑over-cable mode whenever it is plugged in directly to a PC. Full charge from empty requires around 2 hours plugged into a PC USB port.
- Tips:
- Keep the mouse and receiver 2 m+ away from wireless routers or other 2.4GHz wireless devices to minimize environmental noise.
- G502 LIGHTSPEED has a wireless range of up to 10 meters. To ensure optimal performance in noisy wireless environments and to keep the charging cable easily accessible, it is recommended to keep the receiver within 20 cm of the mouse
