Use four-way touch scrolling

Both Surface touch mice offer four-way touch scrolling that lets you scroll either vertically or horizontally by using a sleek touch strip on the mouse. Flick up, down, or side to side to navigate spreadsheets, long documents, and webpages. Scroll slowly with a gentle swipe or quickly with a flick of the finger and then tap to stop scrolling.

Use haptic feedback on Arc Touch Mouse

The Touch strip on the Arc Touch Mouse Surface Edition uses haptic feedback (light vibration that signals scrolling speed) to respond precisely to your finger movements. Use the Touch strip to scan through documents or webpages as quickly or as cautiously as you want, entirely by feel.

Clean your mouse

If your mouse is dirty, clean it with a dry cloth. Do not let it become wet.

Can I use my Surface touch mouse with other PCs?
