Tips for using the trackpad
For best results when using the trackpad:
m Use your index finger (left or right hand). Use only one finger.
m Use only your finger on the trackpad. Do not use a pen or any
other object.
m If your finger reaches the edge of the trackpad before the pointer is
where you want it, lift your finger and reposition it on the trackpad.
(The pointer moves only when your finger moves on the trackpad.)
m Extend your PowerBook’s elevation feet when it is placed on a flat
surface. This gives your fingers better access to the keyboard and
makes it easier to use the trackpad.
m Sometimes humidity or condensation may cause moisture to gather
on the trackpad. If this happens, gently wipe the trackpad with a
clean cloth before you use it.
