Using the Touchpad

NOTE:

• The touchpad is sensitive to finger movements; hence, the lighter the touch, the better the

response. Tapping too hard will not increase the touchpad sensitiveness.

• When using the touchpad, keep the touchpad and your fingers dry and clean.

Below is a description of basic touchpad operations:
