Working with the notebook
The stylus of the Tablet PC is an electronic instrument that can be damaged
if used improperly. Handle the stylus with care.
Our recommendations for proper handling of the stylus are as follows:
•
Do not gesture with the stylus.
•
Do not use the stylus as a pointer.
•
Do not use the stylus on surfaces other than the screen of the Tablet PC.
•
Do not try to turn the grip of the stylus. The grip is used to put the
stylus into its slot or to take it out of its slot.
•
Never store the stylus with its weight on the tip (e.g. with the tip pointing down in a
pen container). If the stylus is stored with the tip pointing down, this may have an
adverse effect on the stylus mechanism (particularly under high temperatures). In
this case the stylus tip may react as though it is constantly being pressed down. To
avoid damage, the stylus should be stored in the slot when not in use.
The stylus can be influenced by electromagnetic fields (cursor quivers or
jumps). There may be a few areas on the screen where the cursor quivers
slightly in spite of pressing the stylus down firmly.
The screen responds to entries made with the tip of the finger or the stylus when the
tip of the finger or the stylus directly touches the screen.
You can use the stylus to perform almost all functions for which you would otherwise use a mouse.
