Touchpad Basics
The following items teach you how to use the touchpad:
1. Move your finger across the touchpad to move the cursor.
2. Press the left and right buttons located on the edge of the touchpad to do
selection and execution functions. These two buttons are similar to the left
and right buttons on a mouse. Tapping on the touchpad produces similar
results.
Note: Keep your fingers dry and clean when using the touchpad. Also
keep the touchpad 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.
