Wheel
The wheel is located in the upper-right corner of your device. You use it to highlight and press buttons or links on
the screen. Use your thumb to rotate the wheel away from you (up) or toward you (down), moving through
selectable items. You can also press the wheel down. More specifically, here’s how you can use the wheel:
• Rotate the wheel toward you to advance the current selection through all the “selectable” elements on
a screen and scroll down a Web page.
• Rotate the wheel away from you to reverse through all the “selectable” elements on a screen and to
scroll up a Web page.
• Press down on the wheel (as you would a mouse button) to select a highlighted item or open a pop-up
menu.
• Press and hold the wheel to open pop-up context menus.
Terminology Used in This Manual
The instructions in this manual use many terms that may be confusing. To help you understand exactly what the
instruction is telling you to do, we’ve included some definitions:
Term What It Means Example
Action button A button that contains a word or phrase
describing what will happen if you select
(press) the button. Action buttons often
contain the keyboard shortcut as well.
Check box A small box that is either checked or clear
(does not contain a check mark). If you
check a check box, the action described next
to the box will turn “on”. Clearing the check
box will turn the action “off”.
Context menu A context menu contains only the actions
that you can take on the item you are
highlighting. In regular menus, the actions
you cannot take on the current screen are
dimmed, but in a context menu, these
actions don’t appear at all.
