    • The battery compartment cover is located on the top of the mouse. The seam running horizontally across the mouse is the top of the cover.

    • There is a button to pop off the cover. It is located on the bottom of the mouse. you may need to press hard on this button to pop the cover.

    • If the button does not work, you will need to pry off the cover. You can use your fingernails or a prying tool in order to do this, as seen in the third image.

    The battery lid lifts up from the back. It does not slide back.

    U need to keep clean…& battery compartment needs gently pried off. Make sure to put back lid cover, pushing down on black prong..OR will not make contact.

    • Remember to insert the new battery in the same orientation as the old one. The positive (plus) end should be facing away from the buttons.

    After replacing battery light goes on then off. I tried it twice. Do I need a new part.

    • The pads on the underside of the mouse hide the screws. Remove these first. You may need to use your fingernails or a prying tool.

    • There will be two 0.5mm phillips head screws. Both will be underneath the bottom two pads.

    • Use your fingernail to carefully remove the two skid stickers from the fat (non-button) end of the bottom of the mouse to reveal two Philips head screws. Remove these, then unclip the bottom cover. Don't get the sticky dusty. Now remove buttons; they're both attached by one 0.5mm Phillips head screw. It is located in the center of the top cover.

    • The button are now only attached by a small overhang near the front. You will need to use the pry tool to push the button plate off of this overhang as shown.

    • The button plate should be able to be completely removed at this point.

Conclusion

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
