SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE
SAFETY GUIDELINES
To achieve maximum safety while using your Razer Basilisk V3 Pro we suggest that you adopt the
following guidelines:
Should you have trouble operating the device properly and troubleshooting does not work, unplug the device and contact the Razer hotline or go tosupport.razer.com for support. Do not take apart the device and do not attempt to operate it under abnormal current loads. Doing
so will void your warranty. The Razer Basilisk V3 Pro requires a USB connection that can supply sufficient power to charge the
device. The charging process may be affected when connecting to a non-powered USB hub or non- powered USB, mostly found on keyboards and peripherals. Keep the device away from liquid, humidity, or moisture. Operate the device only within the specific
temperature range of 0°C (32°F) to 40°C (104 °F). Should the temperature exceed this range, unplug and/or switch off the device to stabilize the temperature to an optimal level.
COMFORT
Research has shown that long periods of repetitive motion, improper positioning of your computer peripherals, incorrect body position, and poor habits may be associated with physical discomfort and injury to nerves, tendons, and muscles. Below are some guidelines to avoid injury and ensure optimum comfort while using your Razer Basilisk V3 Pro.
- Position your kevboard and monitor directly in front of vou with your mouse next to it. Place your elbows next to your side, not too far away, and your keyboard within easy reach.
- Adjust the height of your chair and table so that the keyboard and mouse are at or below elbow-height.
- Keep your feet well supported, posture straight and your shoulders relaxed.
- During gameplay, relax your wrist and keep it straight. If you do the same tasks with your hands repeatedly, try not to bend, extend or twist your hands for long periods.
- Do not rest your wrists on hard surfaces for long periods. Use a wrist rest to support your wrist while gaming.
- Do not sit in the same position all day. Get up, step away from your desk and do exercises to stretch your arms, shoulders, neck, and legs.
If you experience any physical discomfort while using your mouse, such as pain, numbness, or tingling in your hands, wrists, elbows, shoulders, neck, or back, please consult a qualified medical doctor immediately.
MAINTENANCE AND USE
The Razer Basilisk V3 Pro requires minimum maintenance to keep it in optimum condition. Once a month, we recommend you unplug the device from the computer and clean it using a soft cloth or cotton swab to prevent dirt buildup. Do not use soap or harsh cleaning agents. To get the ultimate experience in movement and control, we highly recommend a premium mouse mat from Razer. Some surfaces will cause undue wear on the feet requiring constant care and eventual replacement. Do note that the sensor of the Razer Basilisk V3 Pro is ‘tuned’ or optimized, especially for the Razer mouse mats. This means that the sensor has been tested extensively to confirm that the Razer Basilisk V3 Pro reads and tracks best on Razer mouse mats.
BATTERY WARNING
The Razer Basilisk V3 Pro contains a Li-ion rechargeable battery. In general, the life expectancy of such batteries is dependent upon usage. If you suspect that the Li-ion rechargeable battery inside the Razer Basilisk V3 Pro may be drained (has a low charge), try charging it.
Caution:
Do not open, mutilate, or expose to conducting materials (metal), moisture, liquid, fire, or heat. Doing so may cause batteries to leak or explode, resulting in personal injury. Battery life varies with usage.
