English 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 (for models with separate
buttons)
The following items show you how to use the touchpad with two 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.
