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 (with two-click buttons)
The following items show you how to use the touchpad with two-click buttons.
• Move your finger across the touchpad to move the cursor.
• Press the left 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: Illustrations for reference only. The exact configuration of
your PC depends on the model purchased.
Note: When using the touchpad, keep it — and your fingers — dry
and clean. The touchpad is sensitive to finger movement; hence,
the lighter the touch, the better the response. Tapping harder will
not increase the touchpad's responsiveness.
Note: By default, vertical and horizontal scrolling is enabled on
your touchpad. It can be disabled under Mouse settings in
Windows Control Panel.
