The touchpad responds to movement not to force. There is no need 
to tap the surface too hard. Tapping too hard does not increase 
the responsiveness of the touchpad. The touchpad responds best 
to light pressure.

The touchpad is pressure sensitive. If not properly cared for, it can be 
easily damaged. Take note of the following precautions.
• Ensure the touchpad does not come into contact with dirt, liquids or
grease.

objects.
