Touchpad Basics
The following teaches you how to use the touchpad:
‰ Move your finger across the touchpad (2) to move the cursor.
‰ Press the left (1) and right (3) buttons located beneath the touchpad to perform selection and execution
functions. These two buttons are similar to the left and right buttons on a mouse. Tapping on the
touchpad is the same as clicking the left button.
NOTE: When using the touchpad, keep it - and your infers - dry and clean. The touchpad is sensitive to finger
movements; hence, the lighter the touch, the better the response. Tapping too hard will not increase
the touchpad’s responsiveness.
