Operating Your Computer 

2-10 

Using the Touchpad 

CAUTION: Do not use a sharp object such as a pen on the touchpad. Doing so may 
damage the touchpad surface. 

 

NOTE: For optimal performance of the touchpad, keep your fingers and the pads clean 
and dry. When tapping on the pad, tap lightly. Do not use excessive force. 

 

The touchpad is a pointing device that allows you to communicate with 
the computer by controlling the location of the pointer on the screen and 
making selection with the buttons. 

 

The touchpad consists of a rectangular pad and a left and right buttons. To 
use the touchpad, place your forefinger or thumb on the pad. The 
rectangular pad acts like a miniature duplicate of your display. As you 
slide your fingertip across the pad, the pointer (also called cursor) on the 
screen moves accordingly. When your finger reaches the edge of the pad, 
simply relocate yourself by lifting the finger and placing it on the other 
side of the pad.
