Precautions for Using the Touchpad

If you are using a touchpad, use the area marked with a red line shown below. Touching an edge or border of the touchpad may not work. (The functioning touch area may differ depending on the product.)

Moving the Cursor (Pointer) on the Screen

Place a finger on the touchpad and glide the finger.

Notes on Using the Touchpad

Do not use a sharp object such as a pen on the pad nor peel the cover. It may cause an impairment.
Do not place more than one finger, and do not use while wearing a glove or when the hand is wet. The Touchpad will not work properly. Oil or dirt at the fingertip can also cause an impairment.
The touchpad is sensitive. Do not impose excessive force or maintain an uncomfortable position. Otherwise, it may result in a finger or wrist injury.
