How to change mouse battery?
The Apple Magic Mouse is a sleek, stylish mouse that fits right in the palm of your hand. It has a lot of features to offer, and it’s one of the best devices on the market today. But like any other device with moving parts, there will come a time when you’ll need to change batteries. Follow these instructions on how to change batteries in Apple Mouse.
Step 1:Â Be sure to turn off the mouse before changing the batteries. This is done by sliding the small circular button at the back of the mouse. The green light above it will be deactivated.
Step 2:Â Locate the black tab at the bottom part of the mouse and slide it down. This will release the cover and will reveal the batteries. If the cover doesn’t come off, try using a thin object to pry the cover open. Be careful not to damage the inner parts.
Step 3:Once you have removed the cover, take out both batteries from their compartment with your finger gently prying them out. Make sure to dispose of these properly at an appropriate disposal facility since they contain corrosive chemicals, which can be harmful if left unchecked. Replace these with 2 AA batteries, and make sure to follow the “+” and “-” directions on the new batteries when inserting them in place. Also, ensure that you’ve got the exact Apple Mouse battery type.
Step 4:Return the cover back where it belongs, and be sure to press it down gently until you hear a click.
Step 5:Turn on the mouse by sliding up that circular button. The green light will appear that signifies the device is turned on.
