Touchpad

The built-in touchpad is a pointing device that senses movement on its surface. This
means the cursor responds as you move your finger across the surface of the
touchpad.

Note: Please keep the touchpad and your fingers dry and clean.

Touchpad basics (for models with separate
buttons)

The following items show you how to use the touchpad with two buttons.

Move your finger across the touchpad

right buttons on a mouse. Tapping on the touchpad is the same as clicking the
left button.
