Touchpad
The built-in touchpad is a pointing device that senses movement on its surface. This means the
cursor responds as you move your finger across the surface of the touchpad. The central location
on the palmrest provides optimum comfort and support.
Touchpad Basics
The following items will show you how to use the touchpad.
•
Move your finger across the touchpad (2) to move the cursor.
•
Press the left (1) and right 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:
Keep your fingers, as well as the surface of the touchpad dry and clean. The touchpad is
sensitive to your finger movements: the lighter the touch, the better the response. Tapping hard will
not increase the touchpad’s responsiveness.
