For optimal performance of the touchpad, keep your fingers and the pads clean and
dry. When tapping on the pad, tap lightly. Do not use excessive force.
The touchpad is a pointing device that allows you to communicate with
the computer by controlling the location of the pointer on the screen and
making selection with the buttons.
The touchpad consists of a rectangular pad and a left and right buttons. To
use the touchpad, place your forefinger or thumb on the pad. The
rectangular pad acts like a miniature duplicate of your display. As you
slide your fingertip across the pad, the pointer (also called cursor) on the
screen moves accordingly. When your finger reaches the edge of the pad,
simply relocate yourself by lifting the finger and placing it on the other
side of the pad.
