sensitivity using “PalmCheck™.”

Touch Sensitivity

When operating the Touch Pad, if your finger touches the Touch Pad, unintentionally causing the cursor to move; or if the
cursor does not move even when you move your finger on the Touch Pad, adjust the sensitivity using the “Touch Sensitiv-
ity”.
• By dragging slide bar to the [Heavy Touch] position, the cursor will only move with a strong touch on the Touch Pad.
• By dragging slide bar to the [Light Touch] position, the cursor will move even with a light touch on the Touch Pad.

By design, the Touch Pad is to be used with a fingertip only. Do not place any object on the work surface or press down
forcefully with sharp-pointed objects (e.g., nails) or hard objects that can leave marks (e.g., pencils and ball point pens).
z
Try to avoid having any harmful substances, such as oil, come in contact with the Touch Pad. The cursor may not work
properly in such cases.

When the Touch Pad becomes dirty:
Wipe to remove dirt by using a dry soft cloth such as gauze or a soft cloth first applied with detergent diluted with water
and then thoroughly wrung.
Do not use benzene or thinner, or rubbing alcohol. Doing so may adversely affect the surface, e.g., discoloration. In addi-
tion, do not use commercially available household cleaners and cosmetics, as they may contain components harmful to
the surface.
