Understanding Your Device 22
Motions and Gestures
You can use gestures and motions to navigate your device’s
features.
Warning! Please note that a touch screen responds best to a
light touch from the pad of your finger or a non-
metallic stylus. Using excessive force or a metallic
object when pressing on the touch screen may
damage the tempered glass surface and void the
warranty. For more information, see “Warranty
Information” on page 168.
