4 Using the Notebook PC Pointing Device The Notebook PC's integrated touchpad pointing device is fully compatible with all two/three-button and scrolling knob PS/2 mice. The touchpad is pressure sensitive and contains no moving parts; therefore, mechanical failures can be avoided. A device driver is still required for working with some application software. IMPORTANT! Do not use any objects in place of your finger to operate the touchpad or else damage may occur to the touchpad's surface. Using the Touchpad Light pressure with the tip of your finger is all that is required to operate the touchpad.

Pointing Device
The Notebook PC’s integrated touchpad pointing
device is fully compatible with all two/three-but-
ton and scrolling knob PS/2 mice. The touchpad is
pressure sensitive and contains no moving parts;
therefore, mechanical failures can be avoided. A
device driver is still required for working with some
application software.
Using the Touchpad
Light pressure with the tip of your finger is all that
is required to operate the touchpad. Because the
touchpad is electrostatic sensitive, objects cannot
be used in place of your fingers. The touchpad’s
primary function is to move the cursor around or
select items displayed on the screen with the use of
your fingertip instead of a standard desktop mouse.
The following illustrations demonstrate proper use
of the touchpad.
Moving The Cursor
Place your finger in the center of the touchpad and
slide in a direction to move the cursor.
Scrolling (on selected models)
Slide your finger up or down on the right side to
scroll a window up or down.
NOTE: A software-controlled scrolling
function is available after setting up the
included touchpad utility to allow easy
Windows or web navigation.
